Play it if you…
Good fit- Virtual reality players who want bartending and shooting combined in one game

Skip it if you…

- Players who want a realistic bartending simulation rather than an action game
Our take on Double Shot
The central constraint is the double duty of each shift: drinks must keep flowing while the bartender also protects B.A.R.R from gangs.
What is Double Shot?
Set in an alternative 1980s where gangs control the streets, Double Shot combines bartending with combat in virtual reality.
As a bartender, players serve drinks and defend their territory while protecting B. A. R. R, a sentient drink-preparation machine that also has anti-theft capabilities. The shifts require both mixing drinks and fighting attackers. Enemies include a character on roller skates, and weapons are picked up from a holster. Between shifts, players can spend their earnings in an apartment. The game features neon-lit levels, a talking bar, and a retro 1980s style.
How Double Shot plays
- 01Bartending and combat

- 02Weapon pickups

- 03Apartment space
- An apartment provides a place to spend earnings between shifts.
- 04Talking bar
- B.A.R.R is a sentient drink-making machine that speaks.
