After Eurogamer, more Slavs approve!
Okay, this game is proper weird, but hella fun! – says Chris from GAMERTAG VR at the beginning of his video. How does his adventure end? Find out in the video below.
Spanish outlet Desconsolados gave the game a generous 8/10. Luis especially liked the cel-shaded art style, level design, and voice-overs. You can check out the whole review HERE.
This is $15 US and worth it. It’s fun from beginning to end, light-hearted, challenging and the swinging mechanics combined with the environmental puzzles are a treat. – Ryan from The VR Grid sums up in his review, which you can read HERE.
Maaan, this game is just fantastic! – says Shawn from RenderedReality in his playthrough:
About Yupitergrad
It was an ordinary day in your life as a Slavic cosmonaut. You went on a mission, wearing your space tracksuit with three stripes of quality. What could have gone wrong when you were so thoroughly prepared?
Your task was to go to Jupiter base, test the new device, launch the experiment to produce the fuel, and return home right after with your space shuttle. Obviously, following Murphy’s Law – nothing went as planned.
Since I remember everything was an uphill climb for us Slavs. It couldn’t have been any different here. But it made us strong, amirite?
So kiss your babushka goodbye and become a space-traveling Indiana Jones. Roam through an industrial space station with grappling hooks and spatial boosters. See how acrobatics in space, zapping off ledges and walls feel like. Experience the perspective of a space comrade, arcade platforming, and challenging riddles. All soaked in a gritty, full-on Slav, humorous story.
Don’t be afraid as General Varnikov and an onboard computer named AIsha will guide you through your journey.
Main features:
Minimal risk of motion sickness thanks to innovative design.
Over 50 tight-packed levels to explore and conquer.
Indiana Jones-like navigation via grappling hooks and boosters.
Lots of crazy platforming stunts.
Riddles and spatial puzzles.
“Dieselpunk in space” atmosphere.
Slavik humor and peculiar story.
Original, stylized art.
Soundtrack by acclaimed video games music composer – Piotr Surmacz.
Yupitergrad is live on VIVEPORT, Oculus Store, and Steam with a price of 14.99 USD. The game is also available to all Viveport Infinity subscribers.
Yupitergrad is playable through HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and now also on Valve Index. PlayStation VR and Oculus Quest versions are set to be released in Early 2021.
