Description
The current idea is we have a 3D game about how a sub atomic particle goes through the tunnel from just after it is done with acceleration to the point of collision.
The story of what happens in the game is up for discussion, we invite lots of creative physicists to come forward and helps us design an interesting game play.
In terms of control, our initial idea is, we control the movement of the particle not by the traditional Keyboard + Mouse interface, but using the human posture as perceived by a Microsoft Kinect.
Update : Demo Video available at : http://web.iiit.ac.in/~sharada.mohanty/content/brother-hunt
Goals of the project
A working prototype of the game
Skills being sought
- Lots of creativity
- Any experience with designing graphics
- Some experience with Unity3D is a plus
(Note :: You do not have to be a programmer to join our team, we are mostly looking for physicists who can come up with an interesting story for the game, one which makes sense, and designers who can help us prepare some fine looking graphics if at all. and in terms of writing the game, I alone can ofcourse manage writing the game over the weekend (I did that last year !! and we won !! :D :D ), but if we have some people who have ANY experience in Unity3D, it will help me personally a lot :D
