So, what's it like being a suit pilot?

It's...different. Half of it's familiar, like something from a dream. The other half doesn't make any sense at all.

How so?

The interface...you'd think they'd give you a cockpit. Joystick, throttle...you know, the basics. Instead they catapult you off into space and it's just you out there.



A catapult? In space?

Yeah, like from those old school naval carriers. They say it's for "high speed entry with physical protection under combat conditions". But I'm pretty sure the bastard who designed it just did it for the thrill of it.

Ahh... And then you're off flying with those hand-jets. My friend, that does sound very thrilling but I don't remember you as one to handle combat conditions.

It's like riding a bike. Standard FPS skills we did back at the academy. A few heavier weapons on cooldowns. Great against smaller ships and turret emplacements. But doesn't do a damn thing to the capital ships themselves. Got to call in our own cap ships for that.



Wait... They just gave a new pilot command of the fleet?

Yup. I'm the one in the field. I've got eyes on what the enemy's running so they trust me to make the right call. It's not too tough. Railguns for armored targets, beam weapons for everything else. That's handled most of what we've come up against so far.

I thought there were nukes? I definitely saw nukes in your last comm vid.

They haven't let me play with those yet. Working my way up the tech tree as they used to say... Damn, that's me. I gotta run. Linking up with the Nemesis for something new. Grab the tab?

I got it. Stay safe my friend.

Game Information

Orbital Strike VR is a space combat simulator built from the ground up for VR. Some things will be familiar and a few things may surprise you but we've striven to build a fun and memorable sci-fi adventure for the VR community.

• Story-rich sci-fi campaign: with some great voice acting from an amazing crew.
  
• Space combat simulator: Beautiful fleet battles with you right in the middle of it all. This is indie VR, we can take some risks. So instead of a cockpit we launch you out of the carrier with intuitive hand-jet flight mechanics.
  
• First Person Shooter: A set of standard, heavy, and utility personal weapons are available for pilots to destroy smaller fighters, turrets, and sub-systems on capital ships. These are key to opening a path for your fire support assets.
  
• Tactics: The only way to kill capital ships is by commanding your own. You will configure your own fleet on the fly and call them in as fire support, commanding them all together or individually.
  
• Drop-in online co-op: While fully playable as a single-player experience, at any time you can invite your friends to fly, fight, and command together.
