Overview
Aeon is an indie FPS developed by a two-person team, Illusion Ranger, and published by EloveGame. Initially released in 2017, the developers have been transparent that the game was essentially an early access version, put on sale due to their inexperience at the time. It's described as a fixed-point shooting game that was later updated with limited free movement based on player feedback, a decision the developers now acknowledge might have impacted the intended experience, particularly for VR users prone to motion sickness.
