Overview

When the COVID-19 pandemic first emerged, the general public was overwhelmed with fear and uncertainty about this global disaster. In order to educate people about the virus and its related knowledge, our group realized that utilizing VR could provide an immersive experience for users to quickly grasp the necessary information while also alleviating their anxiety through gamification. Our web VR game Demo Fighter, aims to contribute to helping people overcome these challenging times.

Concept

After an entire semester of research, design, and testing, our team has successfully developed a high-fidelity prototype for a web VR game. It has evolved into a fully integrated and functional web page, allowing users to interact with NPCs in different roles and acquire knowledge within a complete virtual environment. Through engaging conversations with the virus and interactive learning experiences, players gain insights into its dangers and learn how to respond effectively. By successfully completing tests, they unlock tools to combat the virus, ultimately confronting the ultimate boss to complete the game.
