Virtual Reality Escape Room

Description
The Virtual Reality Escape Room is an educational game that uses VR technology to teach math skills to middle school students. Developed by me and one other person, we designed the game with the intention of enhancing student engagement and retention of material. Research has shown that VR can be an effective tool for education, and we wanted to create an immersive and interactive learning experience. In the game, the user wears a VR headset and is placed in a math-themed escape room. To leave the room, they must solve math puzzles to get closer to solving the final clue. Our project uses the Oculus SDK and Unity 3D game engine to create a fully functional VR escape room.
