NYP VR Development Project : VR Dungeon Game

 Learning Objective

The Google Cardboard does not come with hand controller options. The user can however interact with the virtual environment with his eyes, by gazing at the virtual objects to activate it. 

  • Using gaze with timer to select
  • Using gaze to teleport or move the character

    Game Main Character Design


     You are a small ball of light !
    You cannot fight. You give light to your party members to aid their fight and blind monsters with a burst of light. You are the main character without you , without light no human party can navigate the depths of the dark dungeon. But your party do not see that , they see you as a support role , assigning you with scouting work , putting you out there in the front line alone to look for treasures , traps , secret doors and to identify monsters , what type , what class , how many. 

     

    Game Supporting Character Design

    They are an egoistical and self centered lot , who think they themselves are the main character in the story, that the world evolve around them. Their job is to fight and that they do very well indeed and often brag about having the highest kills. They take all the credits and treasure that you find. When they are in a good mood ,  praise you a little  that gives you more energy to burn brighter , you live by their praises. But as you grow stronger you eventually earn their real respect. 


    Game Concept Design

    It is essentially a leadership and politics game. You are light , you do not die but your human party do. You can only tell from the message board that they need your support and they are about to die. Who you choose to support in the dire situation will see an increase in respect bar and may or may not decrease the rest of the members respect whom you did not helped. The total sum of respect if positive will increase your light energy bar that will get used up when you burn more light or get negative comments. If that happens, you are burn out and you are unable to light the dungeon for your party. They have to resort to torches or light spells to light the dungeon while you take a break from the party to recover.
