Focusing on their works…

Times for presentation of their works!

Each contents were very unique.

This is the VR game to fling out a building as an giant.

The team made weight of the building with UnlimitedHand and used the sensor in UnlimitedHand to through the building.

To predict the content of the game with this picture, it seems like that this is the VR game of milking caw and we can feel it by our hand with UnlimitedHand.

But actually we ARE the caw.
Buy putting UnlimitedHand on the stomach, they were tried to make the feeling to be squeezed by someone.

He was making the art content on his own.
Tried to link music and vision by using sensor in UnlimitedHand.

This team made the VR game that a player can make a fire bowl and attach the dolls, but afterwords the player and the doll shake their hands for reconciliation.

here is the video:

After the presentations, we played each games and voted to the most favorite game!

The second place of the award is to…

The VR game “In fact I don’t hate you” by the Team “The darkness of modern society” !
They handed on the game from the hackathon but the quality of the game was very impressive.
The fire bowl is the point of fun.

And the First prize sent to…

The VR game “milking VR1” by the team “milking”!
Being a caw was very unpredictable and unique idea for VR game.
The expectation for productization rose up very much!

This was a very first Hackathon of UnlimitedHand and the term was really short, but perticipants shared great ideas for opening the future of VR, and made very beautiful prototype of VR games.
Haptic feeling is really new element to get the VR world lively, so we will hold this kind of event as we get chances.
We hope that UnlimitedHand gives you something new on your mind.

Happy Hacking Life！
