While the current VR market offers a couple of cultural learning experiences, many lack engaging interactions and require significant effort from users, making them less accessible.

Our team came together out of a shared interest in cultural differences and creating immersive experiences. From the start, we focused on understanding the problem, designing meaningful features, and crafting a compelling story. Over two days at MIT, we collaborated to ideate, design, and prototype a demo.

To create a cohesive demo experience and enhance the realism of the concept with this demo prototype, I worked on developing a visual style guideline for the assets. These visuals helped the judges understand how it could be built out in the future and supported the Chinese culture game experience.

After rounds of pitching and showing a working prototype of the various interactions on the last day, we were awarded under the Enhanced Learning with Meta Presence Platform track.
