Synopsis
Presence is a psychological concept related to feeling present in an environment when you are not physically there. This project created a virtual reality (VR) version of the popular tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) to compare to its traditionally analogue counterpart in terms of player's presence and preference. The VR version immerses players in the tabletop world as their miniature, with the game master being scaled up to match.
What motivated you to develop/create this project?
I grew up playing Dungeons & Dragons, and I wanted to see if I could utilise the unique aspects of virtual reality to create a more immersive version of the game I know and love.
What has been a highlight of your time at Abertay?
The opportunity to participate in and direct independent projects has been invaluable during my time at Abertay.
What are your hopes and future ambitions for after graduation?
I hope to take the skills I have learned in my time at Abertay forward into the games industry where I can continue to create fun, exciting and unique experiences for players.
