MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE
Welcome back recruit! MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE is a frantic VR FPS roguelite where players craft powerful hand-held weapons and struggle to survive — er defeat — the MOTHERGUNSHIP. Experience room scale movement*, dodging, limbo-ing and even relishing the satisfaction of literally punching through clouds of bullets, all while perfecting your weapon masterpiece.
Survive the MOTHERGUNSHIP’s metal minions and earn gun parts to add to your weapon, easily picking them up and snapping them into place in VR. You’ll choose from a wild array of distinct gun parts and upgrades like chainguns, railguns, and pizza launchers (yes, explosive pizzas) to forge hell-ish combinations. Design your weapon, then destroy the MOTHERGUNSHIP fleet as alien machines, explosive traps, metal pests, and deadly bosses do everything they can to blast you and your weapon back to square one.
*MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE includes accessibility modes to support all players. Seated-mode enables stationary gameplay, and free movement mode enables the player character to dodge with the controller. More accessibility information can be found in the game’s settings.
*MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE supports Meta Quest 2, Valve Index, HTC Vive, and HP Reverb G2.

While it is a little dumbed down from the original Mothergunship, it brings more with VR than it lost from complexity.
The controls for building guns were a little hard for me to use at first, but I got used to it quickly.
Easy to pick up, easy to play short sessions, so well worth it.

If you're like me, you're wading through Steam for the "Good" VR games. And if you're like me, you've got a friend who plays so finding the good VR co-op games is even bigger of an ask.
Well good news, we've got a C E R T I F I E D B A N G E R here, Mothergunship Forge is surprisingly excellent. It's a roguelite wave shooter, you've seen those before. But the variety of weapons, powerups, and the incredibly satisfying gameplay of Lego-piecing your gun together to make a devastating monstrosity is really enjoyable. The sheer number of buffs, customization, and things you can do to tweak your run make it a joy. You can even power up the connectors themselves to provide buffs to anything connected to it. Absolutely a must buy if you have a VR friend.

Crazy guns, crazy enemies, crazy movement and crazy fun!
Physically dodging rockets , punching enemies and shooting at the same time can be even nice workout.
If I would nitpick, some game mechanics should be explained (like crystals actually not being currency) but otherwise this is one helluva fun game!

The guncrafting mechanics are absolutely great!
Best mindless waveshooter I've played!
(it's just a wave shooter though)

It's very same-y in what you do, but it's very fun discovering new weapons and building something stupidly big and dangerous. Fun if you're a fan of big cool weapons!

Its a roguelike thats a bit bullethell and arcade shooter. Making your own guns are really fun with tons of interesting aspects to it. But the game is incredibly short (finished it around 50 min). Unless you find it in sale or have more thhan one people playing in your house you shouldn't buy
