Just Roll With It by kumoi
Just Roll With It!
Its a dog eat dog world out there and somehow an evil hamster has a bone to pick with you. Using his hamster magic, you are now confined to a hamster ball and must roll your way out of this one.
This game was specifically designed to be used with the Oculus DK2 and the Virtuix Omni. I know not a lot of you have the DK2 and much less the Omni, however this was a fun little game that we took on to prove we could do it. 72 hours and we've got one of the first Game Jam games to be made specifically for the Virtuix Omni!
Pretty exciting eh? Yeah... we're having a BALL over here.
Made with Unity, Maya & Photoshop
=====EDIT=====
We made a Web Port of our game since not many people have DK2 or an Omni. This post-jam edit has some fixed bugs and textures so remember not to vote on behalf of the updated changes.
Controls are:
Arrows or WASD for movement and mouse for looking.
Escape to regain mouse control, click in environment to hide mouse.

I don't just lack that or VR goggles — I don't even run Windows — so I can't play this in any shape or form at all, but I felt I needed to drop a comment anyway. Cool!
Is there an option to make a build for mobile and controller? Maybe Oculus mobile, I know it is not the same quality but I am sure lot of people would download it.
I have unfortunately encountered two small bugs in the web version.
The first is that, when you step on the pressure plate after you put the cube on it and leave while the cube is on it, the door goes down and you have to push the cube off the pressure plate before being able to open the door again.
The second bug, is that the hamster ball clips through the cubes. This is probably because colliders of the cubes are too small, since the ball doesn't clip on the fences or gates (the tunnels' colliders are very weird though, might want to take a look at that ;) ).
However, since the bugs are very small and by no means game breaking, I don't think it's worth giving it a star penalty. Especially since the game is so innovative and I find it very impressive that so much has been done in a game jam!
Thanks for the web port.
