Building Virtual Worlds

Fall 2023 | Programmer

A semester-long series of four rapid-prototyping projects, each developed in a new team over one- to two-week rounds. Working with two programmers, two artists, and a sound designer, I helped build a range of interactive games exploring different platforms and input methods, including virtual reality, augmented reality, Vive trackers, and DDR pads.

Projects included guiding a Seeing Eye dog through a VR obstacle course, navigating an augmented reality game show, a multiplayer tofu-squishing game using Vive trackers, and a multiplayer game controlled with DDR pads. My contributions focused on programming gameplay mechanics and interactive features across the four projects.
