Emma: Rift Ride

I received the Oculus Rift DK1 and decided to enter their first contest, so over the course of 2 and a half weeks I designed, programmed, integrated, and did the visual assets for Emma. David Gates recorded my voice for the messages and created all of the music. He also laid out many of the levels.

Goals:

• immersion via the use of head gestures only for all controls
• fun with perceived movement and kinesthesia as you race through the light tunnels
• exciting and balanced upgrades such as fog and audio cues
