Bluefall (IAPPA Experience 2025)

IAPPA is a trade show where attendees are exposed to the latest tech being used for park rides of all sorts. Our team was tasked to build a fully immersed two player VR experience that hooks into a motion platform. It was a rail shooter with the goal being making it to the end with the highest score. I was the Art Lead on the team tasked with getting both the look established and focus on performance keeping a smooth frame rate for VR. Our team also had to setup a lot of the environment and enemies for theatrics to fit with the story through the demo with animations and attack designs. Thank you Hannah Nye and Natalie for both building storyboards and making a stylish UI for this. Major shout out to John Sermarini from engineering with a lot of the help in networking and providing support every step of the way. Another call out to Ricardo and Lilly, who helped us resolve a lot of bottlenecks with limited resources. Last but not least, big thanks to my 3d art team for building out everything that we needed. Was truly blessed to work with a small yet extremely talented crew to make this work.
