May 17, 2017

SkyCycle is a  VR game where your bicycle pedaling propels you through the friendly skies! Tilt your head to navigate through skill-based obstacle courses.

I created this VR mobile game to be played with a stationary bike. Makers can convert an exercise bike into a game controller using Arduino-compatible microcontrollers.

Do you have a stationary bike sitting in your garage? Have an itch to tinker? SkyCycle was built for the Maker community. With any Arduino compatible microcontroller, you can transform any exercise bike into a VR game controller! Instruction on how to build your own exercise bike game controller can be found here:

Created in Unity3d. I designed, engineered and art directed the game.

I took the game from concept to launch.   Perform tasks from art direction to programming the game. Flight Physics, Game optimization, Game Design, Art and Art Direction.
