Inspiration

We were interested in making a VR game and giving kids a fun and exciting way to learn how to code.

What it does

AstroCode VR is an Oculus Rift Game that teaches the player how to code in a fun and exciting way. The game is set in a kid's room in which the player's imagined astronaut is stranded away from earth. Players must connect blocks of code together to write programs that will move their astronaut character back to earth.

How we built it

Using Oculus Unity API and VR Toolkit

Challenges we ran into

• Providing a smooth VR experience
• Having the code blocks snap together
• Giving the code blocks functionality

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Building our first VR game
• Creating smooth animations and atmosphere
• Developing a pleasant VR experience
• Collaborating on VR game creation

What we learned

• How to develop a VR game
• How to create smooth game animations
• How to work collaboratively on a complex project

What's next for AstroCode VR

• Dynamic level designs requiring more complex programming
• More types of code blocks for more elaborate programs
• Exciting events that the player must handle in VR
