hi this is Amy and I'm here with
Michelle and we tell me a little bit
about your project fifty final project
we decided to do a virtual reality Hume
called cat collector using the platform
unity and over here on this screen we
kind of have how the user would
experience it so when a player actually
plays our game they would need the
oculus rift hardware so they put on
their headset and they've talked to
controllers and over here on this screen
we have our actually our project files
open in a software called unity which we
do use to develop our game we're not
able to transport the headset or the
controller because you need like two
base station that are able to like
record your movement and 360 degrees so
like this is the next best alternative
showing you what like a pre-recorded
video of me putting on the headset and
then looking at the terrain and so I see
the terrain there's like this nice
floral background there's grass that's
movable which is really cool and so
there's a really nice skybox as well
there's an ocean to your side you're
able to look around which is really cool
and so I can move around here which is
not really the CMS the headset
experience but it's good enough I think
and so you're transported here you're
the first thing you see is this really
nice guitar and then do I talk about
like more of the functions for it so our
game offers a couple of primary features
the first one being that you're kind of
teleported to this very serene peaceful
island and you find this magical guitar
next to you so then the second feature
is that we wrote a script so that you're
actually able to interact with a guitar
so you can pick it up and the next
coolest feature is that we actually
added chords onto the guitar so that
when your controller hovers over each of
the chord it plays a different musical
note and our last feature is that
there's like this white you know
majestic cat lie on the very top of the
hill and once you actually pick up the
guitar and start playing music for a bit
the cat will actually hear the music and
run down towards the user so overall
we're trying to offer a very relaxing
experience
and make it fun and exciting what this
is this is remarkable like what what
languages did you need to use cuz a lot
of this does not look like the C or the
HTML with JavaScript covered in class so
what what what like what was the
learning curve like for all this the
learning curve was definitely really
Steve because we've never really had
experience with VR but like for our
suggestion we should use Yui because
it's a really popular like game playing
platform and so unity actually has like
these different components or integrated
into it so a big part of it was just
learning what components are there what
you need to use and so there's different
scripts like this there's a throwable
script it's an interactive script
there's audio sound there's definitely
millions of script I like all are
available you don't really know what to
do it's so like a big part of it was
just googling around and like it's part
of the process of seeing like how do we
make something move how do we interact
with it like why is our hand moving
through the object how do we make sound
and so a part of it was just going
through the asset stores and seeing like
what scripts are available transporting
them there and then making them
interchangeable into what we want that's
this is crazy this is so this is so cool
and what inspired you guys to make cat
collector like what's what's the story
what's the genesis story for cat
collector really likes his cat see from
the ID and from our powerpoints and we
also really like cats I suppose and so
during the fight like the homestretch to
finals we're all like really stressed
and still we wanted to make looks like
really nice relaxing damn and so like
what's the better than seeing a giant
cat come toward you and just plug yeah
like in addition to her you know kind of
the CS with the obsession with cats we
figured we also want to like challenge
ourselves and try like using a new
software and maybe it's happened to old
like the very like immersive environment
that the VR technology offers so we had
a lot of fun like learning like this new
technology and playing around with it
this looks great guys I'm like wait
what's next for cat collector what is
next
yeah Scotty who works for the yellow of
environmental forestry who asked us like
what's the next step and like are you
gonna publish it cuz he wants to play it
so maybe Flemish it on unity so that you
can download the folder and like in your
home you're able to play cat collector I
can collect all the cats I will I'll be
the first to preorder it this looks like
so much fun thank you so much for Sean
to Eve this is this is like great job
once again I'm Chris Amy and this is
