Greetings,
I spent the past month diving into my first VR project for a local "unusual" art show. I created a haunted-hayride-like experience through a fictional representation of the town. This being my first venture into VR development, my goals were to not make people sick, wrap my brain around the unique aspects/constraints of VR development, and maybe get a few cheap scares out of it.
I demoed last night for 5+ hours and received a great response from first-timers and VR-veterans alike. Of course, the environment is a representation of the actual town, so it would have more charm to anyone who's been there and might be a bit silly for those who haven't. I will continue to update this post and put the game on Share and Oculus forums (unable to successfully post), but I wanted to share here ASAP in case anyone wants to try it on Halloween. Would love to get some feedback if you try it!
Disclaimer: It's not terrifying, but use your discretion before letting a child ride this one. No children were at the art show last night, but if a child wanted to try it, I would have asked their guardian to try it first to judge whether it will scare the crap out of them. I don't want to cause any trauma and I imagine this technology has a pretty strong impact on a kid's mind.
