Oculus VR Support! (April Fools)

1 April, 2015 - Pachow Studios

Boss Wave is going to be getting official Oculus VR support! 2D Pixel art has never looked better! We will be releasing a trailer showcasing this new feature on April 31st 2015.

Description

Release date: Early 2016

Boss Wave is a fast-paced arena shooter being developed by two guys where everything is synchronized to a high-energy soundtrack. Each level starts with you fighting enemies in an arena. Part-way through the level, the Boss Wave starts. This section transitions the game into an infinite runner with a massive robot boss chasing you. If you don't destroy it before time runs out, it's game over.

Key Features:

For PC/Mac/Linux
Beautiful, handcrafted pixel art
An epic, retro-inspired soundtrack
10 action-packed levels, each with a massive boss fight
40+ unique enemies
30+ insane guns
More stuff we haven't even thought of yet!

Thanks for the update, and good luck!

@Hippyshake Don't worry, the game is still alive! Recently I've been working to finish a smaller game I first made for the Ludum Dare [ludumdare.com] so Boss Wave has been on the back-burner. I also started a new job recently that's pretty demanding, so I don't have quite as much time to devote to development. Rest assured though, Boss Wave will be finished :)

Any news? I've really been looking forward to this one.
