Synesthesia
About the project
A mixed reality game I developed as my final project to achieve my Bachelor’s degree. It employed multiple learnings from Beach Pong.
It is a runner game where players move sideways, jump and crouch using the Kinect to avoid obstacles in the virtual world.
Other elements include LED lights synced with the soundtrack that helped delimiting the limits of body tracking and enhancing immersion.
