"Sopwith VR" is an abandoned Early Access attempt to make a flight simulator where you can fly a Sopwith Camel. Ignoring one of the absolute primary, arguably sole purpose of a simulator to be realistic, the developer opted for garbage tier low poly graphics instead of realistic ones, resulting in a total failure on Steam Direct. What do you do in the game? Fly a badly rendered low poly WW1 biplane. The...

//TESTED IN OCULUS\\ I've got about 100 hours( if not more ) in VR and i've seen lots of great games but that one got me instant because i love flying games in VR. I love the theme and the graphics arent great but do the job. Everything needs to be polished but thats normal and it says Early Access. I see a lot of potential in this game ! Keep up the work. Tips for Developer (but im sure he is aware of) : - make...

I can't believe this game exists. I used to crack jokes that I was using my latest-and-greatest multi-core multi-GPU rig to play Sopwith on. AND NOW I AM. AND I AM SO HAPPY. I got addicted to Sop2.exe back in the 90s. NOW I CAN AGAIN.

I am one of the dinosaurs that has fond memories of playing the old Sopwith DOS game in the 80s. I was happy to discover that this is quite loyal to that old game. The simplicity is beautiful. Less is more. The developer nailed it -- a sweet balance between arcade and a realistic flight model. The sunset at the end was a nice surprise. I do not think the controls are too sensitive. Airplane sticks are sensitive...

Highly recommended: The Great: 1. Sensation of flight and controls are excellent. Developer put just enough lag into inputs so that it feels right/realistic. 2. Deformable terrain adds fun and feedback to where your shots are hitting. 3. Can shoot birds for target practice. 4. Planes fall apart in interesting ways after being shot. Even after an enemy aircraft is shot down, one can continue to damage the...

This is such a good simple game i love it and it being free makes this game just perfect. the only thing i would add is that there doesnt feel like theres any threats like the enemy planes the only threat they pose is if they ram you.

This game is great. While there's not a lot there, it's certainly a lot of fun. The motion is smooth and genuinely I want more flight sim games like this one. I feel if this were worked on or expanded, it'd be one of the finest small time games made for VR (probably an hyperbole but I'll own this comment). Stuff like plane customization and some more maps would be nice. I also found the AI to be really really easy,...

Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers Wow, what a fun little game. Simple, arcade ace flying combat fun. The graphics are simple and the controls are a little too sensitive, but once you get used to that, it's simply a joy to fly in the air and engage in dogfights in the Sopwith Camel. I do recommend starting with the throttle about halfway (after takeoff) to get used to the flight stick before just...
