My AppLab key says it's already been redeemed - has anyone else had this problem?

Huh, ugh, I have heard of issues before. I'm sorry unfortunately that is an itch io issue then and there's not much I can do about it. I was trying to do right by people who bought the game here. If itch's key downloads are broken there's not much I can do :/

Yeah, no worries I don't blame you -  and I've since had the same issue with another app on itch... 


I'll try the Oculus support route, but I've very little hope of success there.

NVM, I can still install it from here.

I cannot play multiplayer..help

My best thought is to join the discord and see if you can create a pick up game. I know I'd be in.

AppLab Key please! The one in the Download section is old and Not working!

I'm sorry, for my own sanity, I really am not going to be giving out keys manually. The app lab download keys are just a bonus, I'm really sorry that it is not working for you.

Would the keys go out to accounts or do we need to redeem them?

You still need to claim them. So you can give them to a friend if you'd prefer.

Hello! Air Brigade is now released officially on the Oculus Store, and I would like to provide keys for everyone that has purchased the game here, as a thank you for supporting me!

how do I go about obtaining a key for the game for app lab?

You should find it in the downloads page for the game.

This has been recently updated ? Congrats on oculus platform.

Yep! Join us on the discord to find more about the changes
https://discord.gg/PtG34ZB

What do you mean about the Oculus platform? I don't think it's been approved yet.

This may be lame but what are the controls on a Oculus Quest 2? some are obvious but is there a list somewhere

Cheers

(-1)

I didn't even realize the quest 2 was different. Do you know anywhere I can read about this. I just got my quest 2 myself just recently so let me give it a try.

Right stick to toggle view (cockpit/3rd person), left stick depress to toggle map

Left stick for the throttle, right stick to roll

Right trigger to fire weapons

B to select new target, A to switch between weapons.
The first training also does go over the controls.

I think I got you covered! The recent update comes with a controls list!

For info on the Quest 2 there seems to be an issue where you can't exit from the hangar. After buying planes I have no choice but to quit and relaunch the game.

Snap

Okay, I had not realized the Quest 2 was so different

Let me look into this

The option to leave the hangar is actually behind you. It works just fine for me though I probably should make that more obvious, thank you.

How do I open this in Sidequest? I only get a download buttons on the page.

Sorry, been out of it. Open it on the Quest you mean? You have to go to all apps.
You use the SideQuest app to install it but you download it through here.

i did not get an oculus key it said the key is unavailable. it this and common problem and is it needed ? 

It is not needed, that's just a bonus and just gives the oculus go version. But thanks for the info, I'll look into what is going on.

Is there virtual hotas, or do you need a joystick?

Hi there, if you are in the cockpit view there is a virtual hotas. Outside of that you fly the plane by rotating your controller.

Oh noice, is there any footage of this? 

Sure, looks like this.

Hey, looks great! Would it not be more realistic in the middle between the legs though?

That depends on the cockpit. In the current version it is in the middle for th f/a-18 cockpit and such

game did not download what can I do.

Contact itch.io support I suppose? It should be in your dashboard and then library.

Is the game only playable online?

Hi there, no it works in offline mode as well. You get to keep all the planes you earn there for when you do go online :)

Oh nice, thanks :)

Pretty cool game!  I'd really love it if you could change the depth of the HUD; optimally the targeting indicators should appear to be at the same depth as the targets themselves instead of *way* close.

Let me look into that, they are supposed to be at the same level, I'll see if that's been changed...

I just downloaded it. I havent done to much of tutorial yet but I went to test out other options like host or join game but no games found and no one joined my game. Didnt know what else to do other then tutorial. what am I doing wrong to get everything this game is able to do.

Oh no, friends are recommended if you wish to play with other players. It would be hard to find a random pickup game for a small mobile vr game like this. It does sometimes happen though. 

If you wish to make an event to get people together, I'd use the SideQuest event feature.

Thanks for the quick reply and it makes sense. Great job on the game though. Glad to support a good dev

Oh was wondering if there is a way to directly connect with a friend also with this game. Friend list or something like that. Or do I have to wait for the servers to random match us together.

Congrats! The Update seems to fix the hand bug. Also the instrument panel flickering seems to have been fixed also. Thanks for your work!

Thanks, based on your other comments, I also added a bit of sensitivity to the vr hand controls and also give you the option to disable them altogether in the options menu now.

What is in this update ?

Just some changes to hopefully make the hand stop jumping around as much when it loses tracking

Air Brigade: Novice Oculus Quest #FlightSim #Gameplay with Area 88 Music

That's really good!!

AKIA PhD's SideQuest Show: Air Brigade (Quest Game Impressions)

Yep, just saw, cool man. I definitely see what you mean with the hand tracking now. I didn't know it was that bad if you were in a chair. Will fix.

Silly me!

Just noticed that, In cockpit mode, the white polygon blob kept blinking in and out in front of my eyes every 2 seconds is shaped as a hand. Mostly the left hand. The actual hands are placed where they should be. Seems like a bug when those hands were implemented. It also appears in the airbrigade2 demo but less frequently.  

Ooooh ok ya that happens when tracking goes off, I bet I can do something about that. Thanks for bringing it to my attention

(1 edit)

Experimented. It does seem to be tracking. I usually play sitting down with my arms on my armrest. I use cockpit mode as it is the only mode when I don't get sick. Quest maybe loosing tracking in that position frequently. The hand glitch seem to happen much less when I have my arms stretched out in front of me. But that is quite tiring and awkward for a flight sim.

Thanks Profakia, I think I can fix that.

(1 edit)

Just got this game. Nice Work in progress Game!

Bug report: 

In the first tutorial, I got stuck because it didn't recognize I completed a step.

 Comments:

In cockpit mode, you seem to be working on actual flight stick mode instead of arcade controls. The actual flight stick controls are so floaty that it is uncontrollable. Need to work on it.

(1 edit)

Thanks, I'll make those controls an option then. You can always fly the plane with just the joysticks though in all views.

OK.

Great new update and two in one day.Cannons.

How can I activate Cannons?

You can fire them with the left trigger but they don't do anything yet, sorry :/ Just make the controller shake for now, heh

(+1)

Keep up the good work.

Thanks so much for this update that really makes it more realistic.The cockpit corrections look excellent too.Praise Jesus !

Where do I a oculus key or steam key ?

You may have to ask Itch.io how that works. I'm showing no one has claimed any of the 250 keys I added so it seems something isn't working right...

Did it recently update again ? Said updated nine hrs ago.

Just some bug fixes, I'll be putting out another fix today too. Just some minor tweaks to the controls I noticed.

Great job and appreciated.

The idea was you were supposed to get a free Oculus Go key if you bought the game here, but for some reason itch doesn't seem to be giving them out properly. 

(game is on the Oculus Go store btw, this is just for the Quest version)

Loaded with sidequest drop box. No change.

Will do. Thanks.

Probably it was not installed correctly though, it should not be at the top level. Install it by opening sidequest and dragging the apk over the top left corner of the sidequest app.

I have side loaded AirBrigadeOculus.APK onto my quest with SIDEQUEST. The AirBrigadeOculus.apk file is at the root level on the quest. It does NOT appear in the "unknown source" list of the library.  How do I run it? Am I missing an installation requirement? Thanks.

Could you ask in the SideQuest discord?
https://discord.gg/eJPtCjq ?
I'm not super familiar with this issue..

Did the game update and what to do to update it without losing my game ?

Sorry, I have not yet gotten around to sending out an update for this game, still working on it. You will not lose your progress when you update, only if you reformat your Quest or such.

Thanks, it said on sidequest that it was updated so that's why I asked.

Oooh okay, I just updated the description formatting. Thanks I didn't know it mentioned that. Also as to your game data, if you are worried about losing your progress you can always back up your game data with sidequest too, just in case.

Here is the asset I would LOVE to use if I can afford to make Air Brigade 2 if you're interested. 

Hope you do it because it looks great.Your new game is playing excellent too.The secret 2 has big inner story with reading the books I find and has a big world to explore.Jesus is mankinds sole hope.

Hey  @Onionman77! Fantastic game! Worth every penny, would have easily been worth it if it was $9.99

One weird glitch I'm experiencing is that I can't seem to get online. I'm connected on wifi on my quest but the game keeps saying I'm offline. Not sure what to do...

Feedback:
-Whenever I go full throttle on my left joystick I often don't perfectly push it vertically so I end up turning with my left joy stick whenever I try to go fast. Not sure how to fix this but maybe only turn while clicking on a certain button?
-Option for commentary off? It got pretty annoying when I heard the same toast joke..
-Would love to see after burner & more pronounced sound for throttle changes. Right now the only user feedback of going faster is the numeric speed indicator which isn't super obvious, esp when you're at high altitudes. 

Besides that thanks so much for the amazing game!

I think those are some good ideas! The afterburner effect might take some work, but I can definitely look into putting an option in for the copilot commentary.

As to being offline I'm sorry I don't know. I've had that issue before on gearVR and Go and I would just have to manually disconnect and reconnect to the wifi before I could play an online game again.

I think its worth 20 bucks at least.

Loads to black screen. Good opening music though. Then ~ 30seconds of silence. Finally, more dramatic music. Nothing but black screen.

Uninstalled, and reinstalled. Other sidequest apps are working fine.

The button for a key gave an error also. Said needed to be steam, something, ...

That's really odd, I've actually never heard of this before. I'm traveling for the weeks but will try to work this out next week when I get back, sorry...

Are your other sideloaded games giving you trouble ? I haven't had any trouble with it and don't think it's the game apk.

(1 edit)

no, all others are fine. Including onecast, which was loaded after this.

What is onecast ? Try loading it from itch after downloading into your pc and drag into the sidequest app.

That is the process I used. Onecast is another sideload app. It allows you to play your xbox on the quest.

(-1)

Do you know Jesus God's Son as your Lord and Savior ? 

Is there any other information you can give? Since I haven't heard of this before, anything that might be unique to your situation? It's so curious you can hear the music but no picture.

I dont know what else you would need to know, to help? Everything else works on this device.

(1 edit)

Okay, well I am traveling this week and no where near my Quest, so I'll need to wait until next week to look into this. Or if you don't want to wait and wish for a refund through itch.io, that's totally fine too, I'll approve it.

The part about an error code with the keys though is also very weird.

i can wait. Game looks sweet. Id like to get it work. 

Can you give me an email at onionman@onlyhumanstudios.net ? I may need to send you a new APK to test if you're willing.

Actually I think I have an idea what might have been going on now, will be hopefully putting out an update in the next week or so that will also bring in a lot of new features like VR controls sticks and miniguns and such

Motion control needed.... and better animation when diyng and somme heal point....

That is actually in the plans, I've just been busy with life lately.

Can you update this excellent game with some more maps and those stealth planes like the blackbird and b1 bombers to have correct cockpits ?

I think that's going to need to wait till a sequel if it comes out, I'm sorry :( I've been a bit busy lately with life stuff. I do plan to update the game, but appropriate cockpits takes a lot more money...

The game is excellent,variety of maps,planes and gameplay.It does need anything and thanks for a really cool fun game.Then others games of yours are creative too and about the only mobile vr games out there with big maps to explore.I see many of your games are on steam too and that's very cool.Jesusaves!

You could use the same world as flying to just add cars for the islands and land and boats for the sea to drive.

What about a driving game with the same dynamics ? Cars,maps and game play elements.Open road not a racing track.

Very good impression after an hour of play. First  load  game on Itch and Oculus quest and it's hard to believe someone can make such a game on its own.  I'm Novice in Air combat and VR and this is impressive to be able to look around to find the target until launching the missiles.

Quick question :

 The tutorial asks me to move the controllers but it doesn't move the plane ( only move the little green triangle ). I have to use the joyticks to control attitude and throttle instead. Is something wrong ?

(1 edit)

Ooooh ya hold down on the grip button as well, I should put that in there. And thank you so much man! That is very kind of you to say.

You can use the option to use your motion controller as a flight stick while moving you hand.Press bottom right grip to activate and continue gripping.

Just purchased the game and loving it....  is there a way to chat with other playes or add your pilot name?

(1 edit)

You guys are really nice. Well the way to chat was meant to be able to join an oculus party. Now that people are asking for it though, let me look into setting your pilot name and in game chat.

The original idea was that the pilot name is generated from your Oculus name, but since I don't have access to that information on the Quest I just had to make a random one for now.

Congrats being in the sidequest app.

Consider readjusting the projection scale of the stealth planes and bombers.Could you also put in a 3d object sun and one last thing to make a mission or current ones with the option of interchangeable jets ?

Can you explain to me what you mean about the stealth planes? I'm confused. Missions where you can land and change loadouts or even planes would be awesome. I think I will have to save those features for the next game, since that's so far outside the scope of what this one is. And thank you!

Thanks for your reply.I play the air brigade daily regularly and like playing to win but when I lose its still so fun.The stealth planes like the blackbird,b2 and that v looking one all have huge cockpits unpurportioned to the vr comfort.

Ah okay, now I know the one you are talking about, thanks. I'll take a look at it.

(1 edit)

The team deathmatch if my team wins pays out big.Would you consider doing  map of the salt flats ?

(1 edit)

I was thinking to add another map, let me look up what you are talking about and see what I can come up with.
Oh ya I like that a lot. Let me think on it for a bit.

Interior working gauges on the panel.Cockpit lights for night maps.Afterburner flames and a game mode that has you drop a nuke from a bomber.Or you have to stop the bomber from dropping it.Without any of this your game is really excellent and very fun with countless replayability.
