The developers replied more recently and kindly asked if I could give the demo another go. So today I did.The demo has changed from the first time I played it, again they've stepped up the polish, it's very charming. The problem still remains, the gameplay is dull. Sorry devs, you're clearly talented guys, the visuals, style and original steampunk weapons are lovely. I played the latest demo for 5 minutes and gameplay just isn't fun. The crawling clockwork rats just aren't interesting, and the weapons lack punch when connecting with the rats. Which is odd as smashing the boxes and barrels is convincing.It clear a lot of work has gone into this title, I'd recommend anybody to try the demo before purchase, maybe this game just isn't for me.. Love this Game, Could of got it for free but i paid for it and gave my free key away because i think the Devs deserve the cash for all the hard work. I love streaming this whenever i do everyone always asks what game it is because its so much fun. The choice of weapons, the humor which is so typically British and the details that have gone into making this are all top notch. I love it i think you will too.. I was able to get on with the game now thanks to a patch\/fix. Everything that I had a problem with, (grabbing and holding objects) were fixed. I played a level and was very impressed. Very intense gameplay and I'm sure other who enjoy "hold the line" type games will like this also. Thanks to the creators for addressing the issues and taking them seriously. It is indeed a challenging and worthwile game.. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! THIS game is totally the reason why I bought VR!The atmosphere both visually and audibly totally immerses you in Victorian London it is stunning and this game is a massive bang for your buck with loads of different locations and all sorts of different tasks and gameplay types to complete.I won't spoil the story but it is beautiful, funny, silly, scary but actually ingenious and I think steampunk fans will totally love it.Strangley, whilst I really enjoyed the Story mode in here, the seek and destroy arcade style wave shooter mode version of the game is extremley addictive, at time of writing I haven't tried them all but will be back in there for another high score attempt soon.Voice Commands are AMAZING! Springhorn guy is HILARIOUS Weapons are challenging but totally worth the learning curve, favourite for me is the Magnets.Nice to see a game go from demo and ealry access and not only be completed but tick all the boxes of what VR should be, this is a must have for any VR library IMHO.. Wow! Just Wow. This is not your standard common all-garden wave shooter (infact there is a barely any shooting). Not only is it visually stunning but game play is awesome! I like the magnet weapon the best but the amount of things you can do with the various weapon combos is so much fun. It is definately authentic 'Steampunk' and the characters and story are well thought out. I love the Doctor character he is very funny and very well portrayed!! The enemies range from scary to downright hiliarious too. The Pub level is definately my favourite!! This is already one of my favourte games!!Very good price for what you get and I can't wait for more levels!!Highly recommended.. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!

It's been a while since I was excited for a game that was this disappointing.https:\/\/youtu.be\/lWlf0cUp3NESteamHammerVR claims that it is "A truly immersive story adventure..." and I find that to be borderline false advertising. I don't believe that Wave Shooters would fall under the 'Adventure' genre even if they do have a story.SteamHammer drops you into the middle of a London intersection about to be overrun by rat-bots with no context or backstory. You're then picked up by a guy in a blimp for equally lacking logical reasons. He then shoves you in a steampunk Ironman suit and sends you out to kill more rat-bots which for some reason want to suddenly attack a single house that you then have to protect. As far as stories go, it's all over the place. To be fair though we could poke holes in most RPG stories starting hours so we'll skip that. The delivery of the story I did find rather interesting. The thematic black and white TV with the audio slightly out of sync was amusing and fitting.The weapons looked interesting at first glance but to the level that I played before I'd had enough, I didn't find them to equally useful. My main weapons were the magents for smashing small bots and the hammers for taking out larger bots. None of the other weapons really felt like they lived up to the other two.Now. The main complain.This.Is.A.Wave.Shooter.This isn't an adventure game. It's not going to have you traipsing across London as a bad\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665steampunk Ironman. Maybe it's just me but that's the impression I got from the social media posts and the Steam page. I very well could have interpreted all of those things incorrectly however I went in with one set of expectations and what I found was nothing more than an average, run of the mill Wave Shooter that just wasn't enjoyable.There was story. I'd periodically hear dialog while fighting but wasn't really able to follow it very well while fighting. Even playing through the level twice I feel like I missed bits of it and overall I didn't feel like it added much to bending over and swatting at rats.I can't really quantify fun or say exactly why I didn't find the game enjoyable. Bending over at a 90 degree angle and swatting rat-bots just doesn't do it for me. The larger enemies were equally as unsatisfying to smash into pieces. So...Ultimately, SteamHammerVR just wasn't fun and for that it gets a thumbs down.
