What if there was a new way to interact with games? 

One that could involve your emotions and your real-time heart rate and take your game experience to an even higher level?

Enter Biometrics!

You've played all the shooters, but you never played your heart! ;-) 

HypeRange allows you to combine your aiming skills with your real-time-heartrate and alters your aim when your heart rate is too high. 

How? 

HypeRate.io - streamers first choice heart rate widget and free Unity Plugin allowed us to create a fun shooter that demos the capabilities of future games. 

Become #1 on the leaderboard by consciously lowering your heart rate by breathing exercises as part of the game. If you're too excited, the sergeant won't be pleased, and YOU won't be able to aim!

So take a deep breath and get your skills tested at the HypeRange!

Quite a good decent game to play. The presentation of the Game's page looks great. The only thing I would suggest is that this game could have been better in terms of controls and movement mechanics, also, you could have added many other things in the game to keep the player retention high. Apart from this, the game is simple and fun but not that challenging or attraction grabbing point.

Would love to check the progress ahead and upcoming games that you upload.
