For my final project I planned on doing an inside tour of a dollhouse. After working for a week on it I realized that the project didn't really have the feel that I wanted it to. Instead I pivoted to my second idea which was a story about a car getting stolen and then the viewer/player getting it back. Our main character Ethan has gotten his car stolen by a rival crew. Their cars are scattered throughout the world and Ethan's car is near the other crew's house. Below is...

In my opinion, the controllers for the HTC Vive are better suited for an experience where you can't see the controller. I also got to try the Gear VR and found that to be a great way to experience 360...
