Cavey by ShadowBrain
Cavey (Cave-ey) is an actual totally historically accurate VR caveman simulator.
You need tracked controllers that run through SteamVR to play this game.
There's a Non-VR spectator-only version for people without an HTC Vive or Oculus Rift + Touch hardware.
It's less fun but you can watch people play the game.
The entire game is multiplayer and networked completely, there is no single player mode and there is always-on voice chat. You have been warned.
"Controls":
Grip+moving controllers makes you move forward in the direction you look, hold both triggers to "grab the air" which you can use to jump/hop forward/sideways/backwards, and you can climb anything you can reach!
There's no "aim" to this game, you just play being a caveman.
Have fun. :)

I loved exploring the mechanics, figuring out what to mash together to make stuff (even if there were just 4 or 5 things to smash).
I could easily see this being fleshed out to a full product.
Great work!
It would have been nice to have some coherent goal other than exploring the world and combining things, but with a project this ambitious I'm guessing that would be beyond your scope.
Good work on this, I really enjoyed the experience.
PS. I don't know if it was intentional or not (but it was fun to do), I found that you could grab a tree to climb up it, and once up in the air throw the tree backwards to fling yourself though the air.
