This was very cool to play! I think I spent more time just looking at the rocket than actually playing the game. There are some bugs that I saw, but it didn't really ruin the experience. Overall, Great job!!!
Wouldn't it have been more intellectually honest and a greater honour to women to base this experience on Valentina Tereshkova, the actual first woman in space? who flew a solo mission in 1963, or do the facts not fit in your narrative and message?
100% of space crime is committed by women.
hi
how about the option in the demo to
not need the vr thing ?
thanks
That's a cool idea,
We'll think about it thanks
it said the game licence had expired and kicked me off it
Hello!
Yes, as this game is also used for commercial purpose. We have to set a limit. If you want the game to work again, delete the Woman in Space folder and download the game again.

wow you guys are very fast, sometimes if i leave a comment it could be months before i get a reply
I sadly don't own any VR equipment but i wanted to say that the concept and the idea is wonderful :)
Thanks a lot! :)
Very immersive experience! It’s very interesting to be a person I would otherwise not play in a game or similar. Gave me a new perspective - especially the press conference scene!
Thanks, its nice to hear this!
It was a great experience to view the world from the eyes of Turova. It was unique to live through the hostilities that the first woman in space faced.
The part where the astronauts are in space was great.
I would recommend you to go through this VR experience.
Thanks!
I loved your ideas. I really enjoyed being someone else, I could even feel the stress inside me during the conference (when I was supposed to speak).
I hope a lot of people will try it and that it will have an impact on the society. :)
Thanks!
