Once I got into the swing of catching it was fun, although it didn't feel very balanced. It seemed to reward you more for catching bigger things even though they're a bigger target and I'm not sure the grip mechanic was necessary, it got in the way a bit. Also quite often I'd be rewarded with catch cubes but they wouldn't appear in my inventory. I liked the general feel and it was good use of the VR controllers","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"okuar","author_uid":"1133117","time":"2018-12-05T19:29:25Z","epoch":1544038165,"modified":1544038165,"text":"I cant play VR too but take my respect to you guys.

I played it on my stream tonight at https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/saoigames\n\nI have rated your game, but all of my feedback was captured in the stream.\n\nYou can hear my comments in the archive at https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/videos\/350109951\n\nI was on a Vive but couldn't get the Grip or trigger to take any action. I am uncertain how to troubleshoot the game. \n\nThe white text was also very hard to read. It needed to have a gray\/dark canvas background to make it easier to read the text with contrast to the buildings that were behind it.

First, the throwing seemed to always throw into the ground even when I pointed up (maybe because WMR controller model is tilted by default?). Second, because of dead zoning on the thumbstick, I was always moving a little forward, which made me uncomfortable.\n\nHopefuslly you can find others to rate, very cool you can do all of this in just 72 hours.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"joll05","author_uid":"1072893","time":"2018-12-30T19:30:22Z","epoch":1546198222,"modified":1546198222,"text":"Cool game! It took a while for me to realise that I needed to arm the cubes before I threw them (it also took me a while to figure out which button \"grip\" was, but that is probably just because I'm stupid). It would also be cool if you got an end-screen when you ran out of cubes that showed how well you played (number of creatures caught, average creature level etc.). Other than that, I really enjoyed this game!","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld43\/123201-56b63eb22d630b0b39b975202be50f66.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/shadowbrain.itch.io\/catchey-2","text":"Windows"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"45677","g_author":"1002143","g_event":"LD43","g_eventkey":"71","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"228296","g_title":"Catchey 2 (VR Only)","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"10","g_site2_node_id":"123201","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"123201","n_urlkey":"228296","n_parent":"120415","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/43\/catchey-2-vr-only","n_slug":"catchey-2-vr-only","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"2143","n_created":"1543067116","n_modified":"1544021015","n_version":"407593","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":123201,"parent":120415,"superparent":9,"author":2143,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2018-12-03T22:12:49Z","created":"2018-11-24T13:45:16Z","modified":"2018-12-05T14:43:35Z","version":407593,"slug":"catchey-2-vr-only","name":"Catchey 2 (VR Only)","body":"![Unity_2018-12-03_22-10-55.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1d4a9.png)\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h24m31s011.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f133.png)\n\nThe long-awaited sequel to my last LD entry!\n\nThis was actually supposed to be a proper sorta <insert popular creature catching and battling games here> clone but I messed up day 1 and ended up not having enough time to implement more than the catching part, so, Catchey 2!\n\nYou catch things!\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h25m05s048.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f134.png)\n\nBest played with Knuckles, but will work with any SteamVR compatible headset after you set bindings for it, the vive wands are already set.\n\nYou'll just need to set rotation buttons, Walking, Grabbing and \"Arm Catch Cube\" if you're not on Vive wands or Knuckles controllers.\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h25m40s049.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f136.png)\n\nDefault bindings are left touchpad\/joystick controls locomotion, right touchpad does rotation (through DPAD option in the bindings), grip button does the \"Arm Catch Cube\" which activates\/deactivates the catch cubes (needed for actually catching things) and grabbing is just trigger.\n\nOn knuckles Grabbing does nothing since it's powered by the skeleton API! :D \n\nHope it's playable because I'm too tired to troubleshoot right now.\n\n![headergif2.gif](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f130.gif)\n\n","meta":{"author":[2143],"cover":"\/\/\/content\/f58\/z\/1d4ac.png","grade-06-out":"1","allow-anonymous-comments":"1","link-01":"https:\/\/shadowbrain.itch.io\/catchey-2","link-01-tag":"42337","link-01-name":"Windows (VR Only!)"},"path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/43\/catchey-2-vr-only","parents":[1,5,9,120415],"love":0,"notes":10,"notes-timestamp":"2018-12-30T19:30:22Z","grade":{"grade-01":5,"grade-02":5,"grade-03":5,"grade-04":6,"grade-05":6,"grade-07":5,"grade-08":4},"magic":{"cool":140.15297764535,"feedback":0,"given":6.875,"grade":5.1428571428571,"grade-01-average":3.5,"grade-02-average":4,"grade-03-average":3.333,"grade-04-average":2.5,"grade-05-average":3.875,"grade-07-average":3.667,"grade-08-average":3.75,"smart":15.620307712597}},"text":"![Unity_2018-12-03_22-10-55.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1d4a9.png)\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h24m31s011.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f133.png)\n\nThe long-awaited sequel to my last LD entry!\n\nThis was actually supposed to be a proper sorta <insert popular creature catching and battling games here> clone but I messed up day 1 and ended up not having enough time to implement more than the catching part, so, Catchey 2!\n\nYou catch things!\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h25m05s048.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f134.png)\n\nBest played with Knuckles, but will work with any SteamVR compatible headset after you set bindings for it, the vive wands are already set.\n\nYou'll just need to set rotation buttons, Walking, Grabbing and \"Arm Catch Cube\" if you're not on Vive wands or Knuckles controllers.\n\n![vlcsnap-2018-12-05-15h25m40s049.png](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f136.png)\n\nDefault bindings are left touchpad\/joystick controls locomotion, right touchpad does rotation (through DPAD option in the bindings), grip button does the \"Arm Catch Cube\" which activates\/deactivates the catch cubes (needed for actually catching things) and grabbing is just trigger.\n\nOn knuckles Grabbing does nothing since it's powered by the skeleton API! :D \n\nHope it's playable because I'm too tired to troubleshoot right now.\n\n![headergif2.gif](\/\/\/raw\/f58\/z\/1f130.gif)\n\n","title":"Catchey 2 (VR Only)"}
