hey man ive been playing Gorn since it came out and i was wondering if you could grant me access to the closed beta that would be much appreciated ive been all for this game since the start; my email is williamspeyton3454@gmail.com
Hey Raithza, my dad was working with one of the people that I guess.. built or own the company that produces the htc vive..I guess? they have something to do with it. And we managed to be able to beta test the htc vive for them, for free. They supplied us with a computer and the vive, and some games they want us to test. Because of this, I was wondering if I would be able to play the closed beta as a test. If not, thats fine and I will just buy the game when it comes out or download the new version when it becomes public. if you want to contact me my email is picantemetal87@gmail.com. Thanks!!!!
I grabbed a guy by the chest with my left hand and brought my right down on his head over and over until there was nothing left but a bloody stump. I became disgusted and horrified, I dropped his now-lifeless body to the ground and raised my bloody fists in victory and shame.
I've had this game since Christmas and it is still probably my favorite VR. I know you were shooting to get this into early access by around February, is that still a realistic goal? Super excited for more content to come to this game
Love this game! Despite only being a demo it's brilliant. The over the top cartoon levels of gore and dismemberment are hilarious.
It would be nice to have a stabby sword like a gladius as well as a slashy one. If it makes things too easy then maybe shorten it like a dagger. Dual wielding swords is probably my favourite mode.
An axe could also be interesting but I dont know how you'd make it different. Maybe it gets stuck in the enemy's head.
Lastly, and this is a bit silly, but after a decapitation. Could the headless body run around flailing like a chicken for a bit.. assuming its still got legs. Or the detached head could have eyes that follow you.. possibly with animated eyebrows doing an angry face (\/) or surprised face (/\) darting left and right in a "wtf?!" kind of way.
Cant wait til it's released - a definite buy for me!
Right above the comments section, there is a button labeled, "Download". Then, say that you want to save and open folder. There should be two things in that folder, Gorn (Application) and Gorn Data. Put those two in your desktop and click the (I think it is Unity) logo that says GORN under it. Your game should start from there.
About 1/3 of my play area is behind the back wall in the game. Is there any way to adjust where the play area is in the arena? I just want to scoot it forward some.
Just wanted to say that even months later GORN is still one of my all-time favourites. My business was down at a local LAN in Perth, WA and doing some live mixed-reality demo's and I thought I'd throw GORN on to see how it fared with a static camera.
Works great and I can't wait to get some better quality lighting so we can make the player less transparent, will for sure be doing more in the future. Thanks for the awesome experience.
That's great! The build you are using is also quite a bit older than the current build, you might want to redownload for better physics/graphics/combat/everything :)
PLEASE add enemies with bows! Besides this the only problem with the game is you can't skip the tutorial and this game makes me so sweaty after. HTC Vives should have cooling systems.
Had the vive since christmas and this is still my go-to "fun" game. Love the ideas for progression, any thoughts of a "style" points type system for more elegant takedowns? Oh and yes I also broke a light fitting playing :-)
An option to show room boundaries or the room center on the ground would be nice, like a chalk outline kind of thing. I was having really great fun, but I punched a wall too hard and now I only have one controller =P a couple other people seem to have broken things getting too into this game as well, I think some visual indicator like that might help =)
Hm, apparently I did. It's never been needed in anything else, as so few games I've played require a quick punching or stabbing motion, so the grid becoming visible when you get close to the edge was good enough, so I guess I forgot it was a thing. Welp. Expensive lesson learned =P
First thing first, love the game and secondly I know people say the grabbing is cheap but I would love for you to keep it in the game maybe you could make an option in an options for people to chose if they want to use it. I personally find it fun to pick up my foes and beat them sometimes not all the time but sometime
Hellow~ owo I have spent a good amount of time on Gorn, and I was pretty curious about how it's development is going right now, I'm definitely looking forward it's final release >w<
I LOVE sling shotting the enemies in your game! When the physics go nuts as you try to pull them apart with both hands, they turn into weapons themselves. Please don't change a thing in that department. Sooooooooo much fun!
This game looks amazing and wish i could play it but i cant since i don't have VR. Raithza in the future do you think the game will be able to be played with VR OR Keyboard and mouse? If not then is there a way to change the input of the game? VR is too expensive for me and this game looks really fun so i hope you can help.
There are LOTS of games where you fight with a sword and mouse non-VR! Have you tried Die By The Sword or Chivalry? There are also VR arcades popping up all over the place, if there's one nearby you can ask them to install gorn :)
In my opinion, this demo is better than most games available, ive played it numerous times and probably have the most time logged on it than any other VR game. It has surprisingly high replayability the same thing pretty much never happens.
I've been playing this game for months and i've touched into vr developement. I was wondering if you could ever release the script so people could mod it. Either way, this is my favorite vr game EVER!
I'd suggest some kind of limit on grabbing the enemies. It's fun but completely ruins any challange. Maybe a stamina or the squirm loose or the enemies become enraged. Holding a guy and punching him in the face is great but using him as a weapon is too effective right now.
Actually now that I think about it just make enemies kick enemies away and not damage them. Then you still have fun and can use/throw enemies but have to really use weapons to fight.
Also even though it's a demo please implement a level select to at least beaten levels or just all levels. I played for quite a while and want to finish but don't want to have to leave it running.
I think i have a good idea of making the experiense mutch better!
at first lets start with the arena: I think that u should make it more like a colosseum or something. and i think that u should make it able to move because it feels more like irl then.
gladiators: it feels better if u made a lobby where u can chose weapons and it would be great to be able to save from where u were.
character customization: I think it would be better if u could choose talents and abilities before the game starts, because then u dont have to make a glove that can lift gladiators because then u can make it a talent to lift and throw them in the begining. u should also make a ability that makes it easy to throw stuff like axes and spears and other weapons.
Weapons: axe, rope web that u can throw at enemies that stunns them and trap them. The experiense would be even more fun with a whip!
P.S Love your game!
i have even more things that could be improved, we could discuss them if u want.

Five stars, can't wait to buy the full version.

THROWING STUFF IN GORN!
im having issue loading the game, do i download straight through the vive? Im confused on how to get it to work, since there are no instructions :S

Hey I was wonding how to change the reolution, its stuck at a low one
I don't think you can, this is just a demo, ;)
Hey Raithza!
About 1/3 of my play area is behind the back wall in the game. Is there any way to adjust where the play area is in the arena? I just want to scoot it forward some.

I just had this pop into my head, are you planning on having Trading Cards? This is for steam.
Had the vive since christmas and this is still my go-to "fun" game. Love the ideas for progression, any thoughts of a "style" points type system for more elegant takedowns? Oh and yes I also broke a light fitting playing :-)
Yep, there are style points in the game now!
An option to show room boundaries or the room center on the ground would be nice, like a chalk outline kind of thing. I was having really great fun, but I punched a wall too hard and now I only have one controller =P a couple other people seem to have broken things getting too into this game as well, I think some visual indicator like that might help =)
That's a default option in SteamVR ya dingus, you didn't really turn it off did you?
Hm, apparently I did. It's never been needed in anything else, as so few games I've played require a quick punching or stabbing motion, so the grid becoming visible when you get close to the edge was good enough, so I guess I forgot it was a thing. Welp. Expensive lesson learned =P
hey, does anybody know a way i could replicate the gore in this game in unreal engine?
#hardwork #dedication
BEST ANSWER EVER xDDDDDD
there are loads of non vr swordfighting games on pc, have you tried chivalry or die by the sword?
Do you have a release date for this game...an will the game be purchasable through Steam?
no release date yet but hopefully the game will be on early access on Steam in february!
I will be the first to buy it!
Can I play with oculus touch? I have seen people on youtube playing it
yeah the game works just fine with the touch controllers since thats what i have been using and I have had not problems on my end
First thing first, love the game and secondly I know people say the grabbing is cheap but I would love for you to keep it in the game maybe you could make an option in an options for people to chose if they want to use it. I personally find it fun to pick up my foes and beat them sometimes not all the time but sometime
I've changed it so you can only grab then when they're stunned. Seems to be fine - no more easy outs just grabbing the nearest dude!
You can press the trackpad buttons to skip dialogue.
Hellow~ owo I have spent a good amount of time on Gorn, and I was pretty curious about how it's development is going right now, I'm definitely looking forward it's final release >w<
Keep up the good work~

Oh thank you, I'll keep an eye on it then :P

Great job

Please create a way to skip the tutorial levels, I play this game all the time and I know how the weapons work by now.
Sorry if there is a way to skip but I have not noticed.
There isn't, this is only a demo. I wasn't expecting people to play through it more than once!
In my opinion, this demo is better than most games available, ive played it numerous times and probably have the most time logged on it than any other VR game. It has surprisingly high replayability the same thing pretty much never happens.
Are you kidding? I play it almost every day! I'm gonna be sooo fit soon
I have more hours in this "demo" than every other Vive game I own. The chunkiest combat I have seen in any game so far.
i just found out that you maked a game called "broforce"
The two games are almost identical, really.
Have you considered using the grip button as a toggle switch for picking up weapons/making a fist?
yes, next version should have that.
I've been playing this game for months and i've touched into vr developement. I was wondering if you could ever release the script so people could mod it. Either way, this is my favorite vr game EVER!
also, here is a video of me playing it with my friends. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWG1MHOkVbE
A Bit of Christmas Gorn!
Here's my new Gorn video with a little bit of Holiday spirit. First time gameplay with the Oculus Touch! :D
make it so you could only grab when they dont have armor on, it would help with the "cheating".
Just did a video on your game. I posted before about how I play it nearly every day. Still not joking.
Enjoy!

Let's get to know our Gladiators!
Some one on one time with the combatants, several dance offs, one handed Warhammer combat, and also contains super titty twisters!!
