Power and Water’s Bite of Science at CDU Open Day - VR Bus Safety Experience - Aug 2023

School aged students experienced an upgraded version of the bus safety VR game I made for the TrafficJam game jam (see details below).

Road Safety Game Jam (TrafficJAM) - Jun 2022

With the goal to share the importance of bus safety and to improve my VR developing skills I made a 'Bus Safety Experience' for this game jam. This experience includes two scenarios: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uONw9MFW90&ab

Bus Walk Home experience - Players will leave the bus and attempt to walk in front of the bus on the way home and learn that it's dangerous to do so, after which the experience restarts, and they must then walk behind the bus to get home safely.

Protect Bus from Rocks experience - As a pedestrian on the bus you are experiencing what its like to have rocks thrown at the bus while inside, as windows shatter you must repair them by replacing them with new windows.
