BlastVR

A Bluetooth game controller, specifically for VR games.

After experimenting with smartphone gaming with arcadie, I wanted to look at the new mobile Virtual Reality space. It occurred to me, that most games are played with a standard game controller, while this works the "immersion" that VR offers is lost at this point for FPS games. I designed and built a gun controller specifically for FPS style games - adding that level of immersion lost with regular controllers.

Prototype construction - 3D print, laser cut MDF & Styrene.

A website was designed for promotion, and 2 games were designed and coded as demos. The games were produced in Unity, with the Google cardboard SDK for mobile VR. Both games are available for Android only via Google Play store.
