The moment you've been training for is here - Space Pirate Trainer 1.0 is available now! Charge your lasers, equip your shields and tie up those laces as it's time to dance your way up the leaderboards.
We've added turrets, new enemies, upgrades, achievements, boss fights and just enough frantic mayhem to put any Space Pirate to the test!
In April 2016 we set forth to make the most kick ass room scale VR arcade experience possible, and today are proud to release the fruit of our endeavour. We've had such amazing feedback and support from the Space Pirate and greater VR community the past two years, and have been so blessed to have had you all along for the ride!
For the 1.0 release we concentrated on all of the things you loved about the Space Pirate Trainer alpha and beta releases - Instant action, replayability and deep gameplay.
So fire up Steam or Oculus Home, the Space Pirate Trainer 1.0 is waiting. It's training time!
Thank you so much for your support during the development of Space Pirate Trainer, we couldn't have done it without you!
Cheers,
Dirk, Chris & Wim
