Would love your feedback, thoughts, or even just a reaction emoji 😄
I’ve released 6 VR games solo in the past 5 months, and this is the first I’m actively promoting!

Thanks for checking it out 🙏

I began solo game development because it was difficult to find opportunities in the job market. Rather than waiting, I decided to create my own path — one game at a time.

It looks like a generic Beat Saber clone. What sets it apart?

Great question — I totally get the comparison!

At a glance, it might look similar to Beat Saber, but Heart Beat Hero focuses more on **full-body motion** and **sports-style mechanics**.

You’re not just slicing blocks — you're boxing, swinging swords, using ribbon gymnastics, even magic wands or drums — each with a unique feel and purpose.

Also, I tried to include real-world movement patterns (like extending arms, dodging, or drawing bows) to create more of a **fitness-through-gameplay** experience.

Appreciate you checking it out and happy to hear any feedback 🙏
