Minesweeper VR
A downloadable game for Windows
Minesweeper VR 💣
The classic puzzle game, part of a series of 12 monthly games to be released throughout 2019! Made in a few weeks.
Carefully uncover tiles in a 4x4x6 grid using your VR controller, trying to discover hidden mines without setting them off in this 3D reincarnation of the classic puzzle game! Plant little red flags in tiles which you think are mines, while sheepishly pressing in the rest of the tiles with your eyes closed and your fingers crossed. Good luck, and don't blow yourself up!
NOTE: VR IS REQUIRED TO PLAY THIS GAME. IT HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED ON VIVE AND OCULUS (THANKS TO pieterwNL!) TOO. PLEASE CONSIDER CHECKING THE GAME WORKS ON YOUR SETUP BEFORE DONATING, TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT!
Controls (Vive)
Trackpad (hold): Teleport
Trigger: Interact with buttons/press tiles
Grip (Hold): Grab an object, the game board, or a ducky
Price
Would recommend downloading for free; it's only a quick prototype. Don't feel bad! However any donations would be very much appreciated and will win you a credit in future projects ;)
Special Thanks
Katie Coughlan, Max Chapman, Hayley Osborn, pieterwNL (for testing Oculus!) and anyone else who has supported me along the way 😄

just a question, when will you update this game, cause i've seen the content on youtube, and i want to play it really bad.
Hey Pieter 🙂
Unfortunately I don't have a Rift or a Rift S to test on, but I will try to set aside some time tomorrow to patch the game for you - I think I know roughly what needs tweaking for OculusVR to work properly 😁
I'll let you know when it's ready 😀
i hope that you'll figure it out,it's a GREAT game and even for free, thanks.
thanks btw
Is it done? cause its three days later, and im hyped to play it.
Hey Pieter!
Sorry for the delay - been working on some other projects. I've made a test version just for you, to see if it works with Oculus (I don't have the hardware to test!).
Let me know if it works and if so I'll update the main build!

it works perfectly, just one improvement point: maybe you can put the flags a little bit higher on your shoulder. cause with me i had to put my arm al the way back of my back.
Awesome! That's probably as a result of changing the "tracking origin" for Oculus - I'll take a look when I've got a bit more time but I'm glad you're at least able to get in and play 😁!
Does not work on Rift. Rift handles height differently so you start with your eyes at ground level and no way to change that.
Huh. Did not know that! So sorry to hear you're having trouble but unfortunately right now I don't have time to fix this 😞.
However if you do want to play with Rift you can try using the following (hacky) workaround:
I realise it's not ideal but if you're keen to play the game it could work! And if it does, bear in mind you can use that same trick on any UE4 game which supports console commands.
still i cannot play on the new rift s. and cannot open the commands with the ` key.
Hi sclin! Sorry for the massive delay but if you still wanted to play the game, it has now been updated to work with Oculus 😄
