Game Trailer Video

Overview

For any person interested in astronomy and virtual reality, the "Planet Creator" will let them explore and experiment in space. The user will create planets by throwing elemental asteroids to a protoplanet target in various combinations. Unlike Universe sandbox and other astronomy based VR experiences, the Planet Creator’s interactivity is based on a physical input mechanic from the user and is focused on the creation of planets. This game was presented in the 2017 Canadian Virtual Reality (CVR), which is the showcase a world-class selection of top industry experts, the latest technologies, and hands-on demonstrations of the latest products.

Essence Statement

Planet Creator appeals to the desire of users to be in control of impossible tasks like the manipulation and creation of space objects, and the teleportation to environments that are hard to reach such as space. We give the users the abilities to teleport, grab and throw asteroids, combine materials and be an active observer of the transformation of a protoplanet into a fully formed planet of the solar system. Collect all the planets of the solar system and learn about them in the process.

Key Features

  • Asteroid throwing: create or destroy planets by asteroids
  • Combination of elements: over ten different causes and effects on the planet that you create
  • Real-time feedback: see different visual and sound effects for each action from players
  • Teleport throwing plots: throw asteroids from diffferent positions to avoid throwing on the orbiting blocks
