You're plunged into a hostile metallic world and the only way to escape is to fight your way back up. Battles take place in over 25 arenas spread across 3 levels with various optional arenas if you're not in a rush to get out. Don't expect enemies to be pushovers, every battle is a boss battle.
There's three enemy types that you'll encounter that'll evolve and use different tactics as you make it through the game. The first enemy you find may feel like a tin can but by the end of the game you'll have the death screen burned into your eyes. Remnith has five difficulty levels. If you don't like dying or want to run through the game quickly then try out the Tin Can difficulty. If you really want a challenge then Doomsday Device is for you.
Everytime the environment is shot an Energy Scab is created that feeds energy into all enemies in the area. This strengthens them in various ways and speeds up the evolution process. The weakest enemy can turn into something you'd encounter by the end of the game given enough energy.
A single barrel cannon is easy to use but a triple barrel cannon requires you to line up all three crosshairs to utilize its full power. It's up to you to decide which weapon will best tear your enemies apart without risking missing.
Motion controllers, gamepads and mouse & keyboard setups are all supported. When using motion controllers you have a choice of a few locomotion options such as thumbstick/trackpad movement and teleportation. You can play either sitting or standing, the game isn't room-scaled but you do need a 360 setup if you're going to play standing without thumbstick/trackpad turning. There's also a flat mode if you want to play without a VR headset.
If you're used to quick movements in VR then you'll be able dash around your enemies and jump off of ramps. If you prefer an experience that's easier on your stomach then you can use long range teleportation and snipe your enemies across the map. Teleportation works no matter where your destination point is allowing you to focus on your target rather than finding a valid place to teleport. If you need to teleport out of the way quickly just point in the general direction you want to go without looking. If a wall was selected you'll teleport to the nearest point on the floor.
Your cannons are controlled based off of where your pointing when using motion controllers, when using a gamepad or mouse you aim where you look. Gameplay footage above thanks to MattyNet and The VR Viking on Youtube.
Launching The Game:
To play Vive mode run the game using SteamVR as you normally would. To play with the Rift, make sure SteamVR is closed and launch the game in Oculus VR Mode. To play in Desktop mode just launch the game normally.
Controls Overview:
Vive-Shoot with your primary trigger, click your primary trackpad to jump and click the other trackpad to dash. To move you can use trackpads to move normally or use the secondary controller to point in the direction you want to go and push the trackpad outwards to control your speed. With traditional movement you have the choice of moving relative to the rotation of your head or controller. You turn physically by default but you can turn on trackpad turning in the settings.
For players using teleportation you just need to hold the trackpad or trigger on the secondary controller to select a point and release to teleport. Teleportation is instant by default but a fade can be added through the settings.
Oculus Touch-Shoot with your primary trigger, dash with the secondary trigger and jump with A. To move you can use thumbsticks to move normally or use the secondary controller to point in the direction you want to go and push the thumbstick outwards to control your speed. With traditional thumbstick movement you have the choice of moving relative to the rotation of your head or controller. You turn physically by default but you can turn on thumbstick turning in the settings.
For players using teleportation you just need to hold the trigger on the secondary controller to select a point and release to teleport. Teleportation is instant by default but a fade can be added through the settings. To take a screenshot hold down both grip triggers, this will save in Documents/Remnith/Screenshots.

Pretty disappointing, the gun hovers in front of you, it aimes where you point like you're showing it where to shoot. The levels all look the same. Enemies are big, few and uninteresting. The weapon upgrades are more barrels but they point beside eachother making your weapon less precise, so unless you are close enough to the enemy you will miss with the extra barrels which is counter productive in this game. Over all though just isn't fun to play.

Aim True Ye Vengeful - A Lesson On FPS Trigger Discipline
[/th][/tr][/table]
Released in 2017, Remnith is a singleplayer-only, first person shooter created and published by Cronish Games. After you find yourself stuck in the depths of an artificial complex the size of a whole continent, you desperately try to find a way back to the surface while adapting to new combat rules where missing your shots will make your enemies stronger.

Personal Thoughts:
Remnith is a classic case of "good concept - terrible execution". While sporting a great audiovisual setting and promising concept, my excitement for the game fell flat just after a couple of minutes. Initially, the idea draws you in and challenges you to test your skills in battle. But once you're past half of the second segment, you've seen it all. Once you have adjusted to the new rules, which happens fairly quickly due to their rigidity, you will breeze through the rest of the game. On lower difficulties a recovery from too many missed shots is still possible when compared to higher difficulties where it seems more sane to just restart from the latest checkpoint as there is an incredible spike in difficulty.
The shortness of the overall game, the lacking variety of enemy types and player weapons, thoughtless difficulty enforcement, frustrating enemy attack patterns, lacking replayability and tacky lore are all very disappointing. Remnith feels like a good idea in concept that left the drawing board way too soon. Given that bugs, glitches and spelling errors still exist to this day, the game screams "early access" from every angle. Form over function is not going to cut it for me.
Finished this just now. This is a crazy good game if you like arcade shooters, and it really plays with the scale of VR.
3/10 Reasonable for the price, but a little dull. Guns don't feel powerful enough and enemies are all the same. Shoot them, watch a wall fall over, shoot another similar one, watch a similar wall fall over. Zzzzzzzzzz.
Oh boy. Not fun.
I played the desktop version, and oh boy. I found it so incredibly unfun right off the bat. The aiming feels wonky (maybe it's the mouse acceleration? No setting for it, and I think playing shooters on a controllers is silly), the environments are cluttered and hard to navigate, the enemies are hard to spot - too much visual noise which is uniform in colour! The "pillar fall" sound is incredibly confusing and doesn't sound good. The shooting feels pretty lame (no juice), it's hard to even tell if you hit the enemy (which is crucial in this game). The visuals are meh but that's fine for an indie production, although I'm sure with better lighting and shaders the game could look actually good.
My main gripe is: fighting does not feel good. I'm sorry, dev, I cannot see if you delivered on the promise of evolving enemies if the basic ones are just such a chore to fight. There's nothing to keep me "hooked".
Oh, and to make things a bit more light-hearted at the end, at first I thought my gun is an enemy and I panicked a bit as I couldn't shoot it (WEAPON LOCKED).
Death to AAA gaming. Take this loss and grow, dev. If you're not the dev, I suggest only buying this game if you're interested in experimental but unrefined experiences, or maybe if you have a VR headset (which this game could possibly be much, much better on).
Unfortunately I couldn't get this game to work.
---
UPDATE: I took another look at this game after the Developer response, and I went through the startup instructions more carefully. The controllers don't work the way I was expecting, but now that I understand that, it's playable, and fun. Just read through the many instruction screens a little more carefully than I did.
