I'm proud to release my second demo for the Rift, Cocktail Shooter.
Description
Shoot the shaker to make cocktails. That might not be the easiest way to do it, but it's a fun one. In virtual reality, why stick with the ways we do things in the real world?
An ingame video has been made by the youtuber Shellmiu : (please turn the subtitles on)

This time I wanted to create a demo that was both fun and pedagogical. I chose a theme that I knew well, cocktails, and I programmed a way to make them so you would really learn to mix them (what alcohols to use, in what proportions...) but that was more fun than just pouring the liquids into a shaker.
Here, the shaker becomes crazy and flies around, and you have to shoot it with a gun filled with the right ingredient to create the cocktail.
Download link
You can download the game here, for Windows and OSX : (althought I was only able to test the Windows version)

4. Repeat with each ingredient until the cocktail is ready.

Future ameliorations
-customers will order cocktails for their table, you'll have to complete them the best and fastest you can or they'll leave without paying
-customers will have their own personnalities, and will talk to you while you make the cocktails for a better immersion
-more cocktails, with or without shaker (for the ones without shaker, you'll have to shoot the flying alcohol bottles instead)
-destructible environment: you will be able to destroy the glass panels, make the beer pumps leak...
