Intro to VR Game Design: Build a Virtual Room in One Class

A single class for ages 12 to 17 curious about virtual reality. Teens learn how VR games are designed and build a simple 3D room in Unity that can be explored in first person.

Class Experience

The teacher explains what makes VR different: scale, comfort and interaction with hands. Teens then build a small room with objects sized for a real person and walk around it in first-person view on screen. The teacher shows how the same scene is set up for a headset.
