My Responbilitys
During my final year at the University of Plymouth, I dedicated myself to developing a virtual reality experience for my dissertation. This project aimed to not only expand my skills in Unity development but also explore the applications and limitations of virtual reality technology. The project, later known as VR Wipeout, included an essay detailing the entire process—from testing and development to evaluation. I hosted testing sessions, regularly collecting user feedback and evaluating the data to enhance the overall game experience. My involvement spanned various aspects of the project, including networking, environments, and the game development process. The project received first-class honors and is now showcased to other students.
