Cactus Cowboy Portal VR
A downloadable game for Windows and Android
Cactus Cowboy is back in Cactus Cowboy Portal VR!
You're the Cactus Cowboy trying to escape out of the cacti labs with your portal revolvers while being tortured by something evil.
6DoF Jump'n'Run / FPS Adventure containing:
- Full Locomotion and nothing else
- Dual wielding Portalrevolvers
- Cacticubes
- Bombs
- Bossfights
- Deep falls and long jumps
- Portal based riddles
- GLADOS voice by https://15.ai
- Chiptune Soundtrack made by Trackerbernd
- Hidden eastereggs
- A blast from the past with Commodore Computers and Cracktros
Yes, this is a Portalstyled VR Game. A content of questionable quality production by me presents you what no one seems to make. Portals, full locomotion and jumping. This is not for greenhorns!
Playtime: About 1-3h depending on your skill
Warning: No comfort options and I'm certainly not going to make one. I can't really judge how hard this is on your stomach. Rule of thumb: If you can handle Boneworks you can handle this.
This is freeware. Assets are either made by myself, public domain or creative commons. So this is my 2nd VR and Unity game, so please be a wee bit considerate in your reviews

Hey! I made a speedrun.com category for this game, let me know if you want to moderate the category as you are the creator.
Can do.
I believe in free software and some assets I used are CC-non commercial.
This is extremely impressive! Have you thought about trying out modding Half Life Alyx?
Latest patch fixed the issue with controllers on the ground for me (Rift S). Thanks for the quick fix! Loving it so far.
The SteamVR.bat isn't working for me. It just starts the game on my PC screen, but not on Steam VR
Update and try again. Made a mistake packing the game.
When trying to run it on oculus rift CV1 it opens steam vr and the controllers are stuck in the floor. then it quits randomly
Same here, on Rift S. Also, Windows Defender was not about it, Ran as Admin to bypass but still had controllers stuck to the floor. One attempt I got a weird Oculus error saying it couldn't verify my account, had to reset PC. Trying to run in Steam VR did not work as well. This is with 1.03, was not able to try earlier versions.
same here, except no cannot verify account
Should work now. My bad.
All good, works perfect now.
This is weird. Its supposed to run in Oculus native mode. I'll check that asap.
Edit: My bad packing the game. there was a deprecated dll file in the pack
thank you, I have wanted a portal vr for years!
So, it is working for you now? (⊙_⊙)？
yep sry it took so lon
🌵🌵 Cactus 3 is in development. It gonna be more like serious sam but with cacti
Both of your games work fine in vr on Pimax with steamvr.
Llook forward to trying on my Pimax 5k plus.Jesus loves you !
If you coudl let me know if it works would be great! It's made for Oculus and only runs though ReVive (included)
Do I need to manually put into the revive files ?
Nope, just run the Steamvr.bat and you should be good to go.
Looks like a terrific innovative story and game.
Works smooth and looks terrific.A real 80s retro platformer done right for vr.Jesus loves you !
YEEEEHAAAA Lonesome Cowboy part2 in a lovely Portal Universe

I'd say it's a masterpiece 11/10
