Online: Create an Escape Room VR Game Series

Learn how to implement VR core concepts like locomotion, hand presence, and player immersion into an interactive VR experience while creating a VR Escape the Room Game.

Part 1: Set up the development environment, create a room and a player game object, and program the player game object's locomotion system to snap rotate, and teleport. To teleport we are going to program the controllers XR Ray Interactors component and create a reticle to indicate the teleportation destination.

Part 2: Use UI game objects to create a VR heads-up display to communicate important information to the player as well as a control panel to materialize keys to escape the room. Add another XR Ray Interactor Controller to the player game object to interact with the UI game objects in the scene and activate the keys.

Part 3: Add an XR Direct Interactor Controller to enable interactions with grabbable game objects in the scene as well as adding hand presence and increasing the immersion of the player into the VR game. Use a Socket Interactor game object to snap the keys to the door's control panel. Program the door's control panel to open the door when the keys are inserted.
