A space shooter for VR goggles. The player assumes the role of a warrior taking part in the murderous competition called Dirty Bowl.
Space Junkies is an arcade shooter. The game requires VR goggles – HTC Vive or Oculus Rift. The title was developed by Ubisoft Montpellier, also known for e.g. Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands.
Mechanics
During the game, you take part in the murderous competition Dirty Bowl happening in space. You assume the role of an elite warrior in a special suit, and fight 2v2 or 1v1 battles. Gameplay consists in shooting enemies with futuristic weapons (e.g. Sunblaster and Biogun). In contrast to other shooters, in Space Junkies, you can move in any direction, as combat takes place in zero gravity. The space arena – called the Orena – enables the players to dodge bullets, glide, dive, flank, and shoot while moving backwards. All that in 360 degrees.
Technical aspects
In Space Junkies, you fight on special arenas with additional environment elements, such as meteorites which can be used for your advantage or can be simply destroyed. The game utilises physics that feature microgravity along with unique sounds that let you feel as an astronaut leaving their spaceship.
