Introduction I’m wrapping up the current term of the VR Developer Nanodegree I’m taking on Udacity, and it’s time for me to start thinking about what my focus should be: Mobile 360 Development, or High Immersion. A big part of this is thinking about what my next application should be. One of the ideas listed […]
Introduction As a part of the VR Developer course I’m taking on Udacity.com, I’m required to write a blog post reviewing a VR experience. I’ve chosen to review one of the experiences I’ve enjoyed the most so far even though it’s a little flawed. The title of the game is VR Fantasy, and can be […]
