Transmission: Shortwave, a casual VR delivery driving sim set in a retro-futuristic Great Britain, is now available on Quest.
Marking the debut VR game from British indie studio Cardboard Sword, you may recall Transmission: Shortwave recently appeared in the UploadVR Winter Showcase. Taking place in an alternative 1990s Great Britain, you’re tasked with delivering parcels across these UK-inspired landscapes at your own pace as a member of ParcelPal.
Detailing this further, Cardboard Sword calls Transmission: Shortwave a reflection of the team’s “tongue-in-cheek humour and nostalgia.” Leaning into the retro aesthetic, Transmission: Shortwave comes with an original soundtrack that’s inspired by early electronic dance music.
The developer states you can simulate driving “as much or as little” as you’d like, letting you use optional shifters, handbrakes, and turn signals. As you progress across the game, you can customize your courier by gradually unlocking different car models and colors.
Transmission: Shortwave is out now as a Meta Quest exclusive for $4.99.
