The Shadow Over Peenemunde

Barnim

Hey everyone!

On Sunday, I released my first-ever self-made game on itch.io:
https://jags-games.itch.io/the-shadow-over-peenemunde

A sneak peek of gameplay:

I made it in two weeks for this Game Jam: https://itch.io/jam/107-adventure-game-challenge

My goal was to create a modern 3D point-and-click adventure game with a classic vibe that can also be played in VR.
(To be precise, it's PC-VR compatible as of today, and has been tested on Oculus Link + Meta Quest 2).
Give it a try and let me know if I succeeded

This is a short comedy game. As special agent J.B., your task is to infiltrate a secret German facility during WWII, steal top-secret blueprints, and vanish like Schrödinger's cat

In many ways, this mini-game serves as a proof of concept - whether you play it on a traditional flat screen or in VR - and I'd appreciate any kind of feedback from you.

Big thanks to @ChrisIceBox for making this possible!

Thanks!

Congrats on the release, @Barnim.

Curious to try this out in VR - how difficult was the transition to it, development-wise?

Not difficult at all once I understood how things work after months of digging I have a separate UI for VR, which still is not fully optimized. On purpose, I didn't try to make the VR version physics-based. So it's really a point-and-click game inside the VR world. Please read my notes on itch.io.

Looking forward to hearing your feedback for both flat-screen and VR.

Please, don't mind the audio quality - it's only in the video, not in the game.
