We have started talking about the degree show and how it’s important to show the work before the user puts the VR headset on.
I want to keep it simple since I want the spotlight to be in the project.
I decided I am going to either make or buy a giant globe that matches the main menu and hang it from the ceiling.
I also want to make a marketable trailer to show it for the people walking by.
I might design some postcards and posters as well.
On the other hand, I have some exciting news!!!
I managed to get in touch with the Head of Language Development in UAL, Claire Hiscock and she has agreed to test my project!!
It went extremely well! She was very excited to try VR since it was her first time.
For me it was really useful, and it could be said it was two birds with one stone since:
- She was of an older generation so it’s ideal to test accessibility
- She was a lanugage expert
It was hard for her to pick up at first but there was a clear learning curve. Once she got the hang of it she managed to test the level perfectly!
She said it could be super useful as a compliment for traditional learning and she gave excellent suggestions for increasing difficulty.
I did the testing in the library of LCC and it was great because 3 people came up to me and asked if they could try my project so I managed to do 4 user testings in a day when I only had 1 planned.
Based on the results I decided to:
- Add instructions and controllers at the beginning of each level to ensure a seamless user experience.
