You will receive points for each punch, based on how quickly that punch was thrown. If you complete the combination correctly, you will receive bonus points based on how many punches there were. If you get a punch wrong, then you will not gain any bonus points for that combination. If you successively get combinations correct, then the combo number will go up and if you get one wrong, then the combo number will go down.
There are 5 available modes, of which are the original 'Combo Punch Mode', the 'Punch Dodge Mode', 'Coach Mode', 'Heavy Bag Mode' and the 'Music Workout Mode'. The original mode involves memorizing long combinations and using all of the 8 pads. On the other hand, the second mode involves only memorizing 2 to 3 punch combinations, of which are shown at a much faster pace and without the voice calling them out. It involves an additional swinging arm, you will have to either duck underneath, or move back away from. If you get hit by the arm, then you will lose 50 points. The new 'Coach Mode' involves a boxing coach character, who will show you the combination beforehand. You will receive points for every completed combo and lose points for every mistake. The 'Heavy Bag Mode' doesn't involve a score and you can take as much time as you want, to do the combinations. When a number is called out, throw a combination of that many punches. The 'Music Workout' mode involves hitting a sequence of oncoming pads while avoiding the blocks. The sequences are generated from music tracks. There are 3 in game tracks to choose from and you can also generate workouts from your own music too.
If you are using the standard HTC Vive controllers, then try holding them sideways, so that you can throw punches more comfortably. You can alternatively use boxing bag gloves, with trackers attached to the top of the wrists. If you do this then make sure the tracker is firmly attached and that it doesn't wobble. If it wobbles then this will result in the virtual glove also wobbling the same amount, so keeping it as rigid and stable as possible is important.
When you first start the game put your hands inside the virtual gloves, in the position you want them to be. The calibration will start and then the gloves will be locked in place. Also before starting the game, use the height adjuster to raise or lower the pad stand. You want the top row of pads to be the same height as your head.
If you want to play music via the in game music player, then after the game has ran once, a file named 'MusicDirectory.txt' will be created in the game's root folder. Enter your music folder's directory path here and the game will then load the mp3 files located in this folder.
You can record a video like the one shown in the trailer, by activating the third person cam inside the game.

Best Box Workout ever.
Initial reaction review: Perfect workout game, especially the heavy bag mini-game. This game is simple, effective and if your looking for options to working out, this is perfect for cardio/conditioning. I blew through 43 minutes in one playthough and time just flew by.
I have an Oculus Quest 2 and it works perfect! On the in-game Control Panel which is found behind you once you get in-game, you calibrate your gloves, and the height.
PS - I wish there was an adjuster though for difficulty level in the mini-games, it's sometimes hard to track the pattern that is called out initially.

My only complaint really. And this is 100% just me being honest with first impressions, is the punching bag. The point of punching bags is to have weight in them to stop your hits and you slowly build up punching power (to my knowledge im no boxer/kickboxer/mma practitioner.) So i would change the punching bag to a speedbag. they are not super heavy in real life so it wont feel....fake?..idk if that is the right word....it feels like my hand is going through the bag because the bag doesnt exist and my brain is telling my arm to stop when i know i can just follow through with the punch cuz there would be 0 resistance.
All in all. 9/10 I would not have complained a bit if i bought this at a slightly higher price point. It does what it sets out to do. Teach basic combos and dodges all while giving a great workout
(paid full price)
Not well designed or thought out. In some modes it goes too fast, in others too slow. Also forces you to pretty much sprawl instead of duck because it cant properly understand your height. More frustration than workout.
Great game. I love the mitt workouts the most. At first I was hesitant on getting this based on some of the negative reviews about it not working with Oculus. So i took the plunge and bought it and it works perfectly on my Oculus Quest.
i got the game does not work for oculus rift yet very bad looks real good if you can play it
Pros:
- Fun
- Makes you sweat & fell active
- Really good at reducing your level of energy
Cons:
- It needs to implement a threshold for hits not to be registered again. For example, right now, if your glove stays on the target (as in, your punch isn't as fast as it should), 2 hits will be registered.
- The hitbox for numbered pads is too big. It extends far out from the front & back. While hitting pads 1 & 2, you can easily hit 3 or 4. It get's pretty annoying.
- I wish I could make my gloves smaller to address the concern above.
With these annoyances, I'd say give it a try and see if this is something you like. The developer clearly put a lot of time & thought on it, and these issues are totally fixable. For the price, it's a no-brainer.
very good boxing workout. i like the coach mode the best.
Some nice updates has made this a pretty solid fitness game. I really like the punch pad mode with the trainer.
I've played this game for about an hour and it seems to a well-made game, but I was hoping for a bit more.
My suggestions of some enhancments.
- Allow punching the numbers before the voice completes the sequence. Sometimes I just want to start punching without standing and waiting for the sequence to finish. I can still listen as I'm punching.
- Along with that, maybe a mode without memorization. You just punch the lights as fast as they light up and its gets faster and faster. It would be a very good workout.
- Finally, I seem to accidentaly touch pads as I'm lowering my hands and it registers as a punch and I fail the sequence. Maybe have the pads only register with a bit of punch force instead of just a touch. Either that or I just have to be more careful! :)
All in all, for the price it's good. I'm still giving it thumbs up.
Dont usually write reviews for games i dont play for more than 2 hours. But this game has given me the value back for the five bucks it cost me. Great workout not only for the body but also for the brain. I do kickboxing and MMA irl, this actually gave me a workout that i didnt thought it would. This is a good complement to Thrill of the Fight, which lacks a padwork module. my suggestion is to place the swinging arm a little higher as its harder to do a proper slip with the headset on and also the ability to speed up the swinging arm. Good job! Definitely recommend this game.
it seems conceptually good, but with the occulus rift touch, the gloves are so off what my fists are it's hard to judge my distance. Seems to be specifically designed for the Vive.
I'll admit I had fairly low expectations when I purchased this game, because I felt like it was just going to be another half-a$$ attempt to throw together something simple and make some cash.
However, I was pleasently surprised! The sound andphysics really make you feel like you're hitting the pads. It was a really fun work-out. The dev is definitely off to a good start.
I can see how this may get a little repetative after a while, but at the same time the dev seems very involved and active in the development of the game, and open to suggestions. I can see this game growing as he (or she) adds different environments and/or game modes. Multiplayer would be fun as well, as two players take turns to see who can hit the longest streak.
So, dev, keep up the good work. I can't wait to see where this game goes.
Good Game !
Performance - Good
Gameplay - Good
Graphics - Good
