a multiplayer realtime VR game built to complement Lin De Rong’s Re-Materialising Sand exhibit, to captivate visitors into understanding sand scarcity in Singapore

Sandblox is a multiplayer VR game for up to four players, built to sit alongside an exhibit that already existed. That was the interesting constraint: making something that accompanies a finished installation instead of standing on its own. I did the concept and the interactive visualisations, then scripted and built it in Unity for the Oculus Quest, through a long run of ideating, testing and rapid prototyping before it actually worked.
