### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-04-04*

🤢🤮🤬🤬

### 5/5 — Another glimpse into the future of gaming!

*2024-11-04*

Some incredible mechanics here. I’ve never felt a video game be so in touch with the real world. You can just see the potential progression ahead I.e. the ability to dribble, adding NPC defenders etc. My only early critique would be that it feels like the ball is sailing with a bit too much force I.e. I tend to come up short on my shots, but mine were sailing a bit heavy here. Amazing start though, keep it up. AVP community - give this developer some encouragement and drop a few bucks. This is the kind of stuff we were dreaming about when we shelled out all this money!

### 1/5 — No instructions, no ball. It doesn’t work.

*2024-09-02*

The concept is great but there is no tutorial, there’s no ball and it only works in your space. There is no immersive way of transporting yourself to a virtual environment.

### 2/5 — Ugh

*2024-05-19*

Why is it not detecting my hand!🤬

### 3/5 — Too hard!

*2024-04-17*

It’s my first time to write a review because  I’m so depressed.  I can only made like one out of 100 shoots

**Developer response:** I believe it was an effective exercise:) take a break and come back, you might find the feeling.

### 3/5 — Getting better

*2024-03-31*

I can actually shoot in the latest version. It still isn’t perfect but its working. I suspect that the developer doesn’t have a headset yet which makes It more impressive that it works at all.

**Developer response:** Agree, V1.8 update is out, changed the ball control to hand tracking, closer to reality, hope you can try it again, please let me know if any issues, thank you.

### 5/5 — Good support and I think it’s a good game.

All problems are fixed.

**Developer response:** Thank you, I will keep improve it.

### 1/5 — Does not work.

*2024-03-25*

I tried every gesture I could to pick up the ball something must be wrong somewhere.

**Developer response:** Please update to V1.8, it fixed all known issues, thanks.

### 1/5 — Good support and I think it’s will get better over update

*2024-03-25*

Can’t shoot or move the ball.

**Developer response:** Indeed, V1.3 update is out, changed to hand tracking, hope you can try it again, please let me know if any issues, I will keep improving, thank you.
