It was announced by Showstorm Ltd, that their newest VR game SteamHammerVR, an adventure game for Virtual Reality set in the year 1892 on the streets of Victorian London, is releasing a demo version for the HTC Vive on September 6 this year.
Check out the demo trailer of SteamHammerVR, featuring its gameplay mechanics:
“Dark deeds are most certainly afoot, and the streets of London do seem eerily quiet but you are soon to realise why, the dastardly Professor Rattwurm is attempting to enslave the fine English folk with his army of clockwork automatons raging havoc all over town.
Using this new-fangled steam power and some state of the art 19th century gadgetry along with the guidance and expertise of Doctor Obadiah Springhorn you are tasked with helping him clear up this clockwork vermin.
You adventure starts on the Airship ‘Horndenburg’ where you can cast your eyes upon all the other weapons which will be at your disposal in the full game, but the demo ‘drops’ you right into the action and sees you kitted out straight away with three beautiful weapons, the Steam Hammer, the Steam Cannon and the Magnet Beam.
With some experimentation, a little strategy and a modicum of skill you should be able to complete your mission and discover the secrets that the GamestormVR team behind the project have hidden…if not you will be hauled back into the ‘Hordenburg’ for essential suit repairs and you can try again!
