The Arrival of Kings Quest

To aid in our storytelling, we have decided to use as research the infamous seeries, King
s quest, Myst and Monkey Island (I see many gone hours this weekend as soon as i finish my photo theory essay :(). Since our project is to a certain degree a step up from that, we need to see how to create a flexible, and interesting point and click environment. Since essentially that is what we are creating except for the fact that it is virtual reality.










Evolving from Flash

Right! So since the last update plenty has happend to our project, We have decided to take the leap away from flash, onto the 3D design plane. Our final project is aimed to create a 3d world stressing the senses via a virtual reality environment. To do so, we are hoping to find a way to upload our game to a PSP, and have it interact with GPS or other technologies to display a 3d world onto a visual helmet. The aim is that as the user moves in the real world ,he will be moving in the virtual world. Building up from that we want to create an environment which stresses human emotions such as fear, or paranoia.
