A World's End is a grid-restricted first person shooter game made specifically with Virtual Reality in mind - currently supports Oculus Rift only. It's an 'arcade-style', fast-paced, short and easy fun game!
Blast up your enemies and dodge their attacks by moving physically! Choose from a variety of skillsets, from timeslow to different area of effect abilities, to survive as long as possible and get a high score. Unlock different stages, worlds and abilities.
Setting
Your World is ending. In what seemed to be a blink of an eye, there is total destruction around you. Or perhaps it has been a hundred years?
No one to be seen anywhere, but you find portals leading to unknown places. Travel to different worlds and hopefully you uncover what has happened...

**MOVEMENT**
Mechanics called the 'Steps'. Contrary to the popular teleportation or 'increasing acceleration' locomotion, this instead has a quick acceleration, teleporting to mid path then a deceleration so you will feel like you are stepping/sliding/dashing. Teleport mechanics is also available, press T to toggle.
The Seated experience should be pretty comfortable, and 'Room-Scale' variation is pretty OK but tracking needs more optimization.
