Capstone

Goal

The goal of the project was to research and prototype a 3D audio-only mobile game with visually impaired gamers in mind for myTrueSound. Visually impaired gamers have little to no proper games available for them, so this was made to combat that problem.

Results

We created a simple 3D game which is designed to be completed without graphics using only your ears. In the game the player moves with simple touch controls while the AI partner occasionally gives the player advice in case they get lost. The game world is filled with small sounds to help the player locate themselves and to create the feeling of an actual immersive space around them.

In the end, we also won the ICT Showroom 2018 grand prize for the best project.
