Um. Oh. Hello, sir. How you doing? You all right? Can I just bop you in the head? Just a little little Oh, I’ve missed. Uh, try again. Oh, Christ. Oh, I didn’t like that. I don’t know if you can make it out, but there’s a dead person there. There’s a dead man or woman floating in zerog right there. Hello everyone. Welcome back to the channel. The temperature has started to cool down a little bit in the UK, so I’m going to try and get back into recording more regular VR gameplay videos. And we’re kicking things off today with The Warp SISO. Now, this is an upcoming built for VR sci-fi horror game. I think it’s just coming to PC VR. Not sure about PSVR 2 or Quest. And it looks heavily inspired by Event Horizon, Dead Space, The Thing, uh, Kalisto Protocol. And it feels like there’s a lot of VR games recently that have a bit of like a Dead Space slant to them. We’ve got Memorial later this year. We had By Grit Alone, which was a bit Dead Spacey. There was another one that I’m definitely forgetting. I don’t know. Feels like we’re getting lots of kind of Dead Space style games. Uh, pull to begin. Yeah. All right. Oh, cool. Now, immediately I can’t do Oh, I can point. Can’t do a thumbs up. So, the game loses points cuz I like to be able to do a thumbs up in VR. I can point and I can do this and I can do like a little I can do one of those. Everything’s AO bloody K, mate. That is fan dabby dozy. I also have a um a helmet. Uh, I don’t know how it’s going to be captured on screen for you, but but I have a helmet, so I can see the the bounds of my helmet. There’s a bit here, and there’s a bit here. So, my my field of view is a bit restricted, which I I think is quite cool. Um, yeah, approaching for so long. Okay, for the umbilical to finish connecting the umbilical cord. For what it’s worth, I understand why you’re doing this. If it was someone I loved, I’d be doing the same thing, too. Dead space. The contagion spread lost, but not everywhere is lost. There’s still clean air pockets on board. Like, if Jenny’s alive, what’s this? She’s hiding in one of those. Oh, right. Got some kind of stretchy [ __ ] coming out my arm. Not sure what that is. Can you let me in, please? Hello. We’re going in. This is your moment. Whoa. the com through. Okay, so immediately very very dead space. Um, I’m coming in to find somebody I love. So, looking for the Nicole of this story. There’s the dead person I mentioned earlier. Um, we’ve even got this kind of uh zerog area as we walk towards the ship, which is very reminiscent of walking towards the Ishimura in the original Dead Space. Do I have a sprint? Okay, I do have a sprint. Nice to hear that the um voice work isn’t AI. That was clearly a person speaking. A lot of smaller devs kind of opting to use AI voices now. And yeah, I get it. There’s a budget budgetary constraint, but I don’t really like AI voices. They kind of just don’t do anything for me. Do I have a weapon, by the way? Oh, yeah. Got a big fat gun. That is a big fat gun. Okay. Do I can I like open How do I I don’t know. We’ll figure that out in a bit. Let’s put that back there. Right. What’s going on in this place? Open. That was good timing. Uh-huh. Oh. Oh. Okay. Right. Well, the music is good. Immediate tick for the music. That was very um That was very Alien. Aliens. Is that kind of like Yeah, that kind of reverberating. That’s very uh very reminiscent of Alien. Do I have a torch on this gun? Yeah, I do. Should probably get that out. Okay, welcome aboard, Siso. Sophiso. Siso, not sure. You’re in the grand entrance hall. Okay, we need to reach the next deck and cut through the market. Right. Our first target is the crew deck. It’s the closest one of the five possible zones. Okie dokie. Crew deck. Oh, there’s a marker. Okay, so that’s just the marker to tell me where I’m supposed to be going, right? Noticing some frame drops. This is a demo. Um, so this is available on Steam right now. And I and I am running everything maxed out, but my PC should be able to handle a game that kind of looks the way this game does. It’s not it’s not the most high res, high texture, high quality game. It is very much an indie game. Um, but yeah, I am noticing some frame drops occasionally. The ship’s in partial lockdown. Sequence never finished. Some doors are going to need manual overrides. Power. Is that all the information you got from me, mate? Doors. Oh, okay. That’s fine. My markers moved over there. Don’t know how spooky this is going to be. It like atmospheric for sure. Like immediately like in here. You probably won’t hear on the on the video, but there’s just a really kind of a low den and then just dripping dripping water. Oh, it’s actually quite unnerving. Yeah, it’s very quiet. It’s very very quiet, but yeah, just dripping just dripping water. Uh, am I going in? What is that? Well, that looks like something I can plug my my stretchy thing into. Can I plug into you? No. That was ambitious. Right, going in. Don’t do it to me, Doors. Don’t freak me out. Listen up. There are scattered access points all around the guarantee. Your left arm has a hacking chip. Grab the device and connect it to the relevant port. Try it now on that terminal. I’ve done it. What is your accent, mate? Never previously had relevant access clearance and bypass the lock for you. Cool. Remember, it’s just on your arm device. I’ve done it, mate. I’ve done it. The guy that’s speaking to me sounds British, but there’s I don’t know. There’s moments where I’m like I don’t think he is. He’s flicking back and forth between a few different accents, I think. All right, let’s speed things up. Let’s get into some action. Okay. Not sure how long this demo is, but yeah, if you want to check out yourself, it’s available on Steam right now. Is this an elevator? Yes. The game’s going to be using the Dead Space thing. Loading whilst in elevators, right? Hiding the loading. Genius. Pure genius. Oh. Oh, this looks nicer. Chinese and Korean street food with authentic Earth ingredients harvested before the first uncontaminated zone through the market. Then down via the security elevators. That’s floating. Hold up. That’s not right. Company. Something’s gone wrong there. Those dumplings look nice. Guns blazing. There may be survivors. Survivors. Someone help them. They need to make it back to the land, too. Oh, I feel heavy. Bloody hell. Okay. Feels like I’ve got some real like weight behind me. Um, cool. Ladders work. You pass you pass the ladder check. So many VR games like you struggle to get up the top of the ladder. Not in this one. Uh oh. Can we grab these? Oh, that’s cool. Okay. Is that enough? Yeah, that was pretty cool. Jumping down this elevator shaft. Don’t like that. Uhhuh. Okay. Feeling a bit spooky now. Not going to lie. Feeling a little tiny bit spooky. Uh hello. It’s It’s super quiet. I kind of Oh, I caught like a bit of like a smoke cloud in the air there with my torch. Yeah, look, that’s nice. That’s a nice effect. They’re not everywhere, but you get these particles in the air. It’s an odd one. It kind of looks really indie um and a bit low res, but also quite nice, like quite stylized. Reminds me of a lot of kind of flat uh indie horror games I’ve played. Kind of almost has a pixelated look to it. Um kind of a retro Wow, mate. I’m not liking the noises. Okay, this is quite cool. Hopefully, it doesn’t all fall apart in a minute. I haven’t even shot this gun yet. Hopefully, it feels nice to shoot. Where am I? I’m in some kind of I’m in some kind of shopping thing. Shopping center. Shop. Mart. Walmart. Um, this way. This way. Offline. What’s this? Uh-huh. Right. Grab. Oh, yeah. Okay. Um button. Uh-huh. That sounded like a gate, but it also sounded like someone running, which was a little bit unnerving. Uh, okay. I’m fine. I’m fine. This isn’t spooky at all. I think the the helmet thing is actually going along. Exits up ahead, left side. That’ll take you down to security. A long way to make this feel more scary cuz I do feel like I have quite a restricted field of view. It feels like I’m kind of boxed in, which is um certainly a choice. Offline. Do this as well. Yeah. Uh oh, that’s a hack thing. Oh, that’s me gun again. Give me the hack thing. Plug you into there. Oh, it has stuff on it. Okay. Uh, cool. Something’s online now. Hello. There’s a picture of a woman there. That’s a bit scary. Oh, I don’t like her. Oh, is that There she is. Ripley. Hello. Sigourney Weaver’s here. That’s cool. Nice little nod. Don’t know who this woman is, but I know who this woman is right here. Hopefully, you can see that. There she is, smiling, happy before it all went wrong. Um, okay. Through here. Cool. Another elevator. I don’t know how long this um demo is. I really need to like shoot my gun or something and test how the guns work before I find myself in a situation where I need to to use it. Okay, we might just be there already. Hello. Wait, what’s that on your camera? What do you mean? I can’t make it. It’s a man. Bors coming out of their mouth. Try to get their attention. Try to get their attention. I’d rather not try to get their attention. Okay, let me figure out how to how to reload the gun. One bullet. How do I put one bullet in the Oh, you have to pull it back. That’s a That’s cool. Very specific kind of positioning though. Oh, that’s going to be a panic. Unless I’m I’m full now. Okay. Might be full. But that is going to be panic inducing, right? Cuz I can’t just put a bullet in. I have to pull it. But I don’t bloody know. That might be full. Okay. Um, spores on the floor. That in the corner. Hello. What is that? I don’t know what that is. Looks like a person, but I’m not sure. And then this bloke. He doesn’t seem that bothered by me. You all right, mate? See that laser grid? You’re right. Will fry you. He’s fine. Disable it. Give me a second to put up the schematics. Oh, he’s horrible. Look at his face. Look at that. Let’s shoot him. Oh. [Music] Okay, I shot him in the head and then his head went on a big string. Um, and now it’s like that. He’s a zenomorph now. The control room in your HUD and shut down the grid. I think the I think the gun was just full. Okay. What is this? Is these lines that I need to follow. Okay. Right. Can’t go through there. I’ll get chopped into tiny pieces of meat. So, we need to go this way. That’s kind of cool. His head went all stringy. So, they’re going to like morph and change a little bit like um Dead Space, I guess. Um and The Thing and you know, all those things I said that this is clearly inspired by, right? Um am I meant to go this way? I don’t think. Oh, maybe just through that door. Let’s go through this door here. Don’t know if you get different guns or if you just have this gun. There’s movement in there with you. Yeah, I know. Out of it. I’ve just bloody seen it. focused. Don’t let panic get the better of you. Don’t let panic get the better of me. Oh, mate, it already has. What did that just do? I pressed that button online. Is that turn the laser grid off? Maybe. Oh, there’s a handle here. Ah, I didn’t see that. Oh, you’re not going to come all the way open. Have I got like a duck button, a crouch button? Yeah, I do. Okay. Don’t want to physically crouch. I’m too lazy. Hulk. Oh, can you go any higher? No. Okay. Brilliant. Brilliant. This has merits for sure. Like it’s definitely atmospheric. Like this corridor looks um gnarly. Like pretty pretty flipping horrible to be honest. And the smoke’s really cool. Um I think the game just needs a little bit of [ __ ] off. Little bit of work in terms of performance cuz I am noticing frame drops like going into new areas and sometimes just just spinning on the spot just turning around. So yeah, performance not super great. Oh, good lord. No, you can suck my dick. Um, I haven’t even tried to hold this gun with two hands. Oh god. I’ll take a minute to stop [ __ ] myself. Okay. Um, yeah. Can’t hold a gun with two hands. That’s a onehander. That is a one bloody That’s a man there. One bloody hander. Right. Let’s go and just end this. He’s just walking to a wall. I could just leave him, I guess, but Oh my god. Like I I just I don’t Is it Is it a glitch? Is it a feature? You just never You never quite know with indie games. I’m going to go with glitch. Um but I could be very wrong. Oh, there’s another one hanging out of the vent there. Are you going to get sucked into the vent? It’s very grimy. Like really grimy. Um what am I seeing down there? Nothing. Okay, there’s his head on the floor. Big eyes. Lovely big eyes. There’s their bum. It’s all a mess. Um. Hello. Anyone else in here? Hello. Oh, it it Yeah, it it’s very clearly dead space, isn’t it? You know, like it it just is. Uh, is that another one of those things I can pull? No. Is that a thing I can hack? Yeah, I think so. God, I can’t see. It’s so dark. We good? hacking which you’re a lady. Brilliant. Well, there’s a there’s a hand here. That’s a claw hand. Hello. What? What the How is that even What is that even? I don’t even I What’s that? This is grim. Loads of little face pockets everywhere. And what’s that? Egg sack. Egg sack. Face pocket. Offline. Turn it bloody online. Well done. Right. Yeah. Great face sack. Look at that face sack. It’s got hair. Oh. Oh no. Jesus Christ. What in the world is all this? This is cool. All right. This is This is cool. Uh further I get the better it gets. Right. What we doing here? Am I doing more? Is this a button to press? Laser field deactivated. There’s a grid. I have that ahead. No, we’ve knocked on the floor. Okay, it’s not very interactive. I will say that. Like you can’t like push stuff around. It’s not going to interact with you. You’re going to clip through it. Um, which is a shame. Um, like to see a little bit more interactivity. And I’m getting that kind of performance drop again there. Don’t know if that will translate on the footage. You might you might see that it just goes a bit jerky. But I love this stuff. This stuff’s bloody horrible, which is my favorite kind of art asset in any game. The bloody horrible ones are the best. Um. Oh. Hello, sir. How you doing? You’re all right. Can I just bop you in the head? Just a little little Oh, I’ve missed. Uh, try again. Oh, Christ. Oh, I didn’t like that. Didn’t like that one bit. Oh, is is it made obstacles for me to go under? Yeah. Okay, brilliant. Yeah, didn’t like that. What the What in the world? What in the world is going on here? That’s cool, though. Look, look at all that. Yeah, I rate that. Right, let’s put another bullet in the gun. Another one. Yeah, another one. No, no more. Oh, green light might mean we’re full. Green light on the gun. Full. Full belly. No more room for anything. Where am I actually going? Do I have a marker? No. Um. Oh, Jesus. What is that? Oh, what is that? Oh my god. Oh, I’m freaking out. I’m freaking out, man. Oh my god. They’re behind me as well, aren’t they? Yep. Oh, and I’ve got no bloody bullets. [ __ ] Can I reload, please? Can I Can I reload, please? I’m panicking now. Going to lose me job. Oh no. They’re here as well. It’s all gone a bit to [ __ ] Are they still chasing me? Right. Stop freaking out. Reload your Oh, good lord. [ __ ] off. Okay, reload. He’s trying to walk into the walls. It It’s gone a bit intense, but also a bit of a mess. Um, right yet. Oh, what? How many? How many How many How many does there need to be? Reloading needs work. Reloading needs work. Oh, get so many bullets in there now. So many bullets. Yeah, reloading is is very finicky. Okay, that is full. That’s like a billion. Oh, why did I die? Why did I die? What? I could not tell you why I died. I couldn’t I could not tell you why I died. I just I just did I just died. That was I just died. I would have liked to finish the demo and show you the whole demo, but you know what? Let’s leave it there. You can go and play it yourself. The demo is out now. This is the warp siso. Siso siso. I think it has potential for sure. It there are elements that are very janky. Um I noticed at the end there those kind of weird creatures that were chasing me, they all had the same animations. That’s what one thing I I kind of pulls me out of an of a VR game or any game really is when you’ve got a set group of enemies and they’re all walking at you with the same walking animation in the same pattern in the same sequence. And I get it. Creating kind of different animations for each of them is difficult. But having one scurry and then stop at different times and move in different ways and it goes a long way to kind of increasing fear factor cuz that was a bit scary cuz it’s the first time I’ve encountered them. But every other time after that I’m going to be like, “Oh, here they come again with their stomp be stomp be stomp be bang you’re dead.” Um atmosphere great. very much clearly a riff on Dead Space. I see that event horizon. I get it. Very grimy, very very kind of um Cronin Bergian with the with the weird creatures exploding everywhere. It feels like performance needs a little bit of a little bit of polish. Um but yeah, it’s it’s not bad for an for an indie for an indie title. I think it’s a smaller team. I think this team actually specialize in making room scale VR experiences. They do kind of like the ones you have to go to go to places and and play on these kind of room scale things. I think that’s what they do. This is a home experience that they’re building. I don’t know if it’s their first, but but yeah, it’s cool. Has potential. Does still need work. Would like to see the visuals kind of get a little bit of an upgrade, but performance needs to be fixed first before you start making things prettier, cuz that’s just going to impact performance more. And yeah, I’d like to see more varied movement and kind of patterns for the for the critters. But otherwise, there’s there could be something here. Right. Hopefully you’ve enjoyed. If you have, please do leave a like, leave a comment, hit subscribe, all that good stuff. And I will see you soon for another one. Sorry I didn’t get the demo finished, but come and download it. It’s available right now. Peace out. See you later. [Music]
