Excerpt:
"Austin, Texas-March 21, 2011-- UTV Ignition Entertainment, alongside Hothead Games released today an all-new video for their highly anticipated title, Swarm. Swarm is the first game of its kind, developed with a unique character control where players direct a pack of 50 hapless blue buffoons towards death while trying to reach the end of each level. The game is rated T for Teen by the ESRB.
Swarm gives players control of 50 utterly fearless Swarmites and drives them through an intense and often suicidal battle of survival. Swarm is the first game to feature mass character control, where players move all the Swarmites at once. Steer the flock of pudgy, clueless little blue morons through the game and they naturally flock and flow around obstacles. Creatively combine swarm moves to work your way through a relentlessly dangerous and hilariously brutal environment. Compete against friends to get the high score by deftly moving through the world and cleverly solving puzzles the game throws your way."
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Last year, VGChartz introduced Best VR Game as a new category. It was mostly inspired by the eventual winner: Half-Life: Alyx. Although this year didn't introduce us to a platform-defining experience of that caliber, VR still had a commendable year. One ongoing trend for this platform has been rock-solid ports of older iconic titles, and 2021 was no exception on that front. As the medium progresses, so too does every developer's knowhow about it. These nominees were among the best examples of that in 2021."
RE4 VR is honestly a game changer for me. Getting to experience the world of that game in VR is so surreal and it’s the best version of RE4, in my opinion.
Lame. But then, vgchartz is a lame site with fake numbers.
How were the games nominated? Why not have categories? Why not by platforms? How were other games not even nominated at all like Song in the Smoke or Hitman?
Article just threw out some games and threw out a winner with nothing said at all about the nominations.
What about fracked or song in the smoke. Not played song in the smoke yet, but loved fracked.
Definitely looking forward to moss 2, the first was amazing.
VRFocus says: "Swarm’s gameplay is as bold as its visuals, and even in the casual setting provides a decent challenge that is instantly addictive."
"Today is a very good day if you just happen to like VR shooters. You see, I was just informed by Greensky Games (an indie VR games studio) that their arcade grappling VR shooter "SWARM" is coming to the Oculus Quest and Oculus Rift platforms this Spring (2021)." - Robin Ek, TGG.
