Wozu Early Access?

„We are a small team of highly passionate artists and developers (you can find and contact us on Twitch every second week). We love "Welcome Above" and are working passionately to tweak and fine tune every corner. We have watched hundreds of people flying with a wide grin on their face, totally immersed in the experience. But -- there is always a but -- we believe Welcome Above could be even better! We have countless more levels in the pipeline. And we have many ideas for additional game play, of which multiplayer is just one. All this needs is time and your feedback.

However, we are convinced that if you love audio driven VR experiences, you will already love Welcome Above.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The Early Access version already offers a smooth experience of four levels, complete with soundtrack, effects and progression.

The current state of the early access version will present you with an interactive tutorial that quickly teaches players to fly: Your bird is hovering in front of you, and by moving and pointing the two controllers, you can control its wing positioning and lift. By moving the controllers up and down, you flap your wings and accelerate. Within a short time, flying becomes very natural, precise and immersive.

Once in flight, you are guided through a smooth sequence of levels with different styles, soundtracks and collectables. Depending on your flight style and character, the average completion time is 20-30 minutes. But you can discover hidden boosters in order to fly super fast or ignore the given path and get lost in immersive soundscapes.

If you get lost at any time, a compass and breadcrumbs will guide you back onto a path. You can...

• fly, cruise or race various tracks
  
• discover hidden secrets,
  
• collect speed-ups and other items,
  
• explore the colorful world of "Welcome Above".

The current Early Access version of Welcome Above has been extensively tested on various hardware configurations (Vive, Oculus Touch, Windows MR, various Windows versions and graphic cards). We also did lots of play testing to optimize the user experience, performance and quality.

Known issues

:

• On some computers the initial start of the application fails for unknown reasons and leads to a "black sky". If this happens, please close and restart the game. We are investigating this issue and are working on a fix.
