This proof of concept is an experience that merges art and games into virtual reality.
Our promotional work on Marvel's Dr. Strange movie, inspired us to create art in virtual reality. Tools like Tilt Brush and Quill are easy to use and designed for artists.
Walk On Paint would set up a simple framework for an artist to create work that a user can walk through. We'll add minimal interactions to encourage simple game mechanics and puzzles related to the art. The artist's imagination and creativity are their only limits.
In exploring this idea, we took inspiration from That Game Companies' Journey and Flower "experiences" and Media Molecule's Little Big Planet's immersive play and user-created content.
In this experience, we walk the user through simple controls and some of the game dynamics with a simple level or two; you collect stars that, when brought together, create a constellation that restores the Goddess of Magic. She rewards you by opening the "Plateau of Portals," where you can enjoy a wealth of artist-created experiences.
