We talked about how we translated Finding Monsters Adventure universe to the marvellous technology of Virtual Reality, showing what we learned in terms of programming, experience, project and usability. We will talk about the challenges we faced, the path we took, the tricks we discovered and the result we achieved in order to create a cool, comfortable and funny VR game.

Tips
87. ???, 2015
Similar to a juggler's act, some things can fall or
be thrown into the middle of the performance. In
the end, Finding Monsters Adventure VR did not
stop and went on to be a beautiful show.

3 languages
3 Levels
1 world available, the other 2 was there as a teaser
So, how display the info needed?
Our experience with rococo menu went right and during our researches we found out that making UI panels with information in front of the player would be the safest route, since we had not much time.
So we created 3 layers of panels, (language) the top one for the title, the middle one for the title’s option and the bottom one for secondary buttons like Back and Settings (World Selection)
To make this task easy, engineers made a tool where we could set camera distance, panels position, panels angle, etc.
Connections, partneshipp, we could test our demos and our games, feedbacks
With all connections we could make the official announcement of FMA VR at Oculus Connect 2 Oficial Trailler
Thanks everyone that helped us
