Journal Entry 12 – Virtual Reality Project

Using unity, we created an app that had a car driving between trees, and once reaching the end there would be fireworks. The most tedious part of making this was individually putting in all of the trees. We also struggled to figure out how to get the app working in virtual reality. The reason why it wasn’t working initially, is because we had a mac specific version of unity that didn’t work on the windows computers in the innovation hub, until we installed a plug in that solved this problem. Also, the controllers with the headset did not work, so we had to use the keyboard to move the car. We couldn’t figure out how to put the video on wordpress, so I will submit that on canvas instead. By the way Bennett Spence is my partner, here is a link to his blog post https://blogblogblog.food.blog/2019/08/01/virtual-reality-project-journal-entry-12/

This is an overlook of the map, showing the pathway of trees. The goal was to drive through the pathway without crashing and to reach the fireworks
This is the start point of the game. To make the car work with controls, we used the prefab car and inserted a multipurpose camera onto the car.
This is the end of the game, which shows the fireworks.
