The Idea<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Prototype was our attempt at expanding upon and gamifying two of our projects we used in our testing; the Gesture Resolution Test and the Y-Axis Inversion test. We also wanted to incorporate a separate mechanic that required arm movements to control an in-game object. This was an experiment to see whether a user could handle controlling one mechanic using head gestures and controlling a separate mechanic via body movements.<\/p>\n

Gameplay<\/strong><\/h2>\n

You are controlling a cursor made up of several cubes. The size and shape of the cursor change depending on how far the Razer Hydra controllers are held apart from each other. You will need to change that distance in order the collect \u2018coin blocks\u2019 throughout game to increase your score. You will also need to resize and use the Oculus\u2019s head tracking to navigate around the red obstacles.<\/p>\n

Your goal is to collect as many \u2018coin blocks\u2019 as possible while avoiding obstacles to achieve a high score. The game is procedurally generated so there is no end as long as you avoid contact with the obstacles.<\/p>\n
