Holopoint: Chronicle
Holopoint: Chronicle is intense archery combat. Explore the once lively island while skillfully weaving your way through waves of relentless holographic enemies, all while swiftly loosing arrows toward your targets.
Holopoint: Chronicle is a skill based game where progression is based on player skill and training rather than unlocks. Like many arcade style games, personal progress and a high score is the goal. There are multiple areas to explore, each offering original targets and waves to progress through. Progression quickly becomes difficult and requires an active mindset. Holopoint is designed so that only a few determined archers will complete the last wave.
WARNING: THIS GAME GETS INTENSE. REMEMBER TO BREATH AND TAKE BREAKS.
WARNING: This game may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.

Holopoint: Chronicle is a good sequel on the first game, with levels to unlock with each their unique modes and seperated leaderboards, now you can show your aim & dodging skills outside the dojo!

+Active and responsive dev
-Missing options available in Holopoint, such as 1-handed aiming. In fact, there doesn't seem to be an options menu at all. (1-handed aiming added in beta)
-Doesn't run as well on [email protected] & 2080Ti
-I dislike the music

This was a snap-buy for me because of how much I enjoyed the original. I'm happy to support the developers of one of my top VR games, but I'm still surprised that this wasn't a DLC to the original game. I can't recommend the original over this one because of the extra mechanics added to the new targets. Beyond that, it's the same game with different environments to divide up the various new targets. I can't ask for more than that from a DLC, but again this is not a DLC so I feel like there should've been something more to it to justify that. In my eyes, the developers have split one game in half. The new game leaves out great components that the original had, like a time attack mode and different kinds of targets and adds in content that couldve just been an update in the original. If this were my game i would try to make it as good as i can, and the new game is worth the pricetag of the original, but I hope to see the devs reintroduce the maps and game-modes that made the classic what it is.

Excellent workout and a lot of fun. I played the first one on release and enjoyed it a lot, but the pesky cable got in the way. I have the wireless adapter for the Vive and this game is on another level with the cord gone. I really enjoy the updated visuals and I plan to integrate this game into my daily workout routine.

Disable Motion Smoothing ! Game runs great on my GTX 1080 I7-7700k after I disabled this setting. Visually game looks better and physics are better. Def worth every penny if you want to harness your inner Legolas.

Awesome! If you liked the first holopoint this one is great! It's a bit more challenging at first than the first version though, which is great. For a great gameplay experience I turned off the motion smoothing and lowered the application resolution to 80% (this can be done in SteamVR "settings" then"video"). This is the best workout game I own so far, even more of a workout than the original. It is very intense! I buy a lot of games just for the workout, but this one is just fun to play regardless. Thank you devs for making a great game!

This is a well made game that doesn't make me feel sick. Every VR game I had played previously made my eyes hurt. This game has smooth graphics that feel natural. It is easy to tell that alot of time and effort went into the design for this game. Small details such as ground texture, 3D menues, and even fish make for a truely beautiful game. Any issues that I have had are limitations of the device rather than the game. The game feels balanced and has a good learning curve. This is not to say that it does not get difficult. There are parts where you will fail multiple times. I enjoy learning how to deal with each type of enemy. I highly recommend playing this game yourself before watching a playthrough.
