Overview: | The task sounded simple: make a real-time strategy game that embraced the medium of VR and took maximum advantage of the Oculus Touch controllers. Hidden Path Entertainment challenged the standards of the genre and investigated alternatives that could provide them with the best product. The result was a method of play that felt both familiar and fresh, combining the tactile and the precise. Join this session for a walk through of the design process behind several game interactions in 'Brass Tactics', and witness prototypes both terrible and triumphant. |
