Observatory is a calming experience designer for Liminal VR platform, designed by a small team of 6 people.
Designing A
Calm Experience
This project was the first and only project created by Team Zenith, a group of 6 designers tasked with creating a "Calming" experience for Liminals VR Library of assorted VR Projects.
​
As the producer and lead designer, I held many responsibilities regarding the core design of the experience. I ultimately pitched a game where the player controls a soothing galaxy using a small control panel. Everyone ended up liking the suggestion, and we began development.
​
Due to the project being given to Liminal VR, the game cannot be released to the public.
The Making of
a Universe
As we used Liminals SDK for Unity, we created visually simple raytraces to select planets and then modify them using our simple control panel.
​
Many players enjoyed the simple mechanic alone, so when it came to polishing the game, we added simple yet effective sound effects and music to make the player feel like they have wandered into their universe.
​
In the end, we had a simple product to truly calm players that experienced the creation of their universes.
