A virtual reality goalkeeping simulation
Cleansheet for Oculus Quest is a paid game that allows the player to take on the role of a football goalkeeper in a virtual environment. The game is designed for the Oculus/Meta Quest 1 and 2, meaning it is a lightweight game that does not require a powerful computer to play.
This game is one of a growing number of independently developed sports games for virtual reality, like High Clear VR, but it focuses on a specific aspect of football instead of on the sport of football as a whole. In a sense, it is similar to the mini-games found in Rec Room but with more detail.
A goalkeeping simulation
While being a virtual reality game, the developers of Cleansheet for Oculus Quest claim that the app is a way to sharpen goalkeeping skills and train at home. It is developed by a team who is also responsible for goalkeeping technology used by professional clubs, though this app itself is not one of those tools but is intended to be a more casual experience.
Realistic football physics
Cleansheet for Oculus Quest features intelligent AI that scales shots to suit the size of your body. The physics of the football game are also realistic, aiming to simulate the way a ball would move in a real setting. The player uses the Oculus Quest controllers to move in-game hands around and must stop shots from entering the goal.
A fun game but limited options
The developers claim that players can hone their goalkeeping skills with this app. That may explain why the available gameplay options are limited. There is a quickfire survival mode to help train decision-making ability, but that is essentially it as far as game modes go.
