About This Game A breath-taking space exploration experience in Virtual RealityCompatible with HTC Vive, Oculus CV1 and DK2.Discovering Space 2 is all about exploration. There’s no action, shooting or explosions, just sightseeing, discovery and relaxation on an epic scale.Calming, wondrous and adventurous. Take control of your ship, or follow a tour, and immerse yourself in a journey through the Solar System. Feel the awesomeness and remoteness of deep space. Experience the mood and atmosphere of worlds far away from home. Explore at your own pace, and learn about what you see. Come back with a new sense of amazement of what is out there.Built from the ground up for VR, you have a small space ship and the entire Solar System to explore. The end result is an experience that conveys the scale, awe and feeling of planetary exploration, in a fully immersive way. You really feel like you are there, and it is at times breath-taking. You can travel vast distances, view the planets (and their moons) from afar, execute some close fly-bys and plunge through their atmosphere down to the surface. Along the way you can listen to on-board commentary that adjusts its content depending on whether you take your time, or just dive straight in.Key FeaturesVast expanse of the Solar System to explore.Easy to use tour mode.Easy to use flight controls and navigation.Seamless and continuous travel from deep space down to the planetary surfaces.Planets modelled to true scale.Planets rendered using custom shaders that go beyond simple texture mapping.Procedurally generated terrain and procedural and multi-layered textures to enhance the planet surfaces.Planetary atmospheres enclothe the planets, providing striking sunrise and sunset vistas and re-entry effects.Simple navigation system allows you to easily fly to your desired target destination.Jump gates / hyperspace to allow quick jump to distant systems.Near speed of light effects – Red shift, view contraction and “headlight”Capture your view with in-game snapshots at the touch of a button.Fly your ship with either an xbox / gamepad style controller, or "use the force" with HTC Vive wands.

Cant wait to see DS3.A totally emersive experience, works fine with Touch, once you get used to it learn how to select the various modes. Ship control is the best I have seen yet....well done, keep it up.. Warning: Main branch does not currently work with the Vive pro or Odyssey+ currently (no planets render). Only the original Vive, Rift, Pimax 5k+, and Pimax 8k. But there is an update coming to the beta branch.Just tested with the Pimax 5k+ on large fov and is amazing. All the planets render perfectly and it's extremely clear. Worked perfectly fine for me. The huge FOV and additional clarity the pimax provides makes this really special and extra immersive.In the free roam mode flying into the procedurally generated planets is amazing. The tours are also great. Highly recommend, this is the best chill VR space exploration experience available (next to elite dangerous) this is easy to just pickup and explore.. This has to be the best thing that has ever happened to me. What a shame that the VIVE PRO cannot display this properly. This game is now obsolete. None of the developers care. Wow... what a damn shame.. First purchased this back in the DK2 days. It has improved massively. Great attention to detail like dust particles and condensation in cockpit. Sunlight bouncing off cockpit glass. Space tours are a great addition. Control scheme is now VR controller and very well thought out. Very nice flying low over planets with atmosphere (given how Elite is lacking this feature).Relaxing and atmospheric space flight sim.. well done guide to the solar system. The obvious comparison is to the slightly cheaper Titans of Space 2.0 which does a better job of conveying the awesome scale of stars and planets but is pretty much a guided tour. This gives you the option to either go along for the ride or take control.Pros:- Good gfx, particularly the internals of the 2 ships you can pilot. Nice touches like being able to see your breath (like in Onward) and the moments when the light of the sun catches your canopy are magic.- being able to enter the atmosphere of planets. the terrain i checked looked the same but I haven't seem every planet and vids indicate there's variety. The control system is responsive enough to fly through canyons.- Controls are great. Never used the controller as a virtual joystick like that and after a while didn't miss not having a HOTAS. Cons:- Menus look amateurish and are a mix of gaze and pointer selection. The tiny visual that explains the ship controls is just about illegible. This is the sort of thing i'd want to demo to new users so the lack of any sort of tutorial is frustrating.8.5 / 10 Different enough to Titans to warrant owning both if you love space. Cruise the solar system in your own spaceship for the cost of a cheap lunch.. Visuals+Immersion+Enough content to justify the price-UI. Ok, gotta say that this is pretty awesome. Just a no pressure space exploration experience. Love the narration and the tours as well. Very educational with some interesting facts about the planets and other objects. It uses a text to speech engine that also allows you to play with the script files if you want to. I doubt if the devs would appreciate it but it adds to the fun and as long as you can restore the original files, why not?I modified one of the tour narrations to include little known 'facts' about the cheesy origins of the moon...😜. Very relaxing... space tours are well crafted and educational.. Does not work with the Vive-ProWorked (ok with Vive Original). No Planetary bodies are visible in Tour Mode.Can't recommend unless fixed.. Very relaxing... space tours are well crafted and educational.
