Description

Like no other technology, virtual reality offers immersive game worlds and a high degree of reality. Most of the virtual game experience happens without experiencing other players. This is mainly due to the circumstance that no convincing multi-player concepts exist for VR-games. But could those concepts be worthwhile? Social interactions significantly define fun in common multi-player games from Monopoly to Mario Kart.

This lab course will explore the world of multiplayer virtual reality games. Several multi-user VR platforms will be tested, and best practices recorded. With regard to concepts of traditional parlour games, those best practices will be used to conceptualize and implement a multi-user VR playground with as many playable games as possible.
