OhShape in the Steam Awards!

It has been almost one year since we left Early Access... And we can't believe how much OhShape has grown since that moment! Throughout this year we have enjoyed the company of a great community that has grown greatly and we have started many adventures.

We released the #StayHome challenge and we realised about the great potential of OhShape as a fitness game. We made 2 collaborations with Synth Riders (the Delight and Carry On songs), an unprecedented event within the VR games that brought our communities closer. We created a event system for special dates of the year, like the temporary Halloween mode.

On top of that, OhShape has been growing with new environments, songs and features extracted from the feedback of our players. Now we ask you to nominate OhShape for VR Game of the Year in the Steam Awards 2020.

If you enjoyed OhShape, give us a hand and let everyone know how cool our game is so we can keep improving and pushing it even further!

OhShape Halloween Event

The wind carries a weird and spooky voice... It says something about "born to win", but we aren't sure. There is a terrible storm in the horizon, it is approaching fast. The Sun has gone down, the neighborhood is being covered with a deep, thick mist and the lights of the streets are twinkling.

Run to your home, block out doors and windows, light some candles and plug in your VR headset. You may think OhShape isn't the perfect game for this time of the year, but you couldn't be more wrong. Now the selection screen of OhShape is covered with bats and ghosts, there are pumpkin coins everywhere and the red walls are marked by scary skulls.

There is even a deeper secret that you will have to find for yourselves...
