The context

MAZE ESCAPE VR is a simple but innovative project born out of a school assignment. It combines the immersive experience of virtual reality, on a Meta Quest 2 headset, with mobile app functionality.

How it works

Two people play at the same time, on different devices:

  • On mobile, one player constructs the labyrinth block by block, from the blocks provided inside a pre-set grid.
  • In VR, the other player enters that labyrinth and has to navigate its intricacies as quickly as possible.

Because the maze is built from the mobile player’s choices, every playthrough is a unique and challenging one.

What I built

I designed and developed the software in the Unity graphics engine, using an online multiplayer plugin named Mirror to keep the two devices in sync.
