So, me and my team are still in the early stages of prototyping a game for the Oculus and we are aware that there are some strict guidelines when it comes to violence in games in the Oculus store. We are a bit unsure if the game we are making is going to pass those guidelines.
In short, our game is a some kind of a competitive version of Russian Roulette(with lots of additional actions to take), Multiplayer, but instead of people we are using Puppets and we are replacing the gore or blood with cotton. The story is vague but all you know is that you are trapped and need to win 10 games in a row to escape/save the current character, we also have an evil observer character that is orchestrating the whole thing.
Do you see this concept passing the guidelines check or should we re-adapt or change it if we ever want it to be in the store? For example, a toy gun instead of a real gun or something similar in that fashion?
Glad you think so 🙂 I think with the current concept, the only violence is the moment you pull the trigger with the bullet in the chamber, which will end the current game and blow up cotton balls everywhere.
