Inspiration

Have you ever been addicted to the super duper popular game Flappy Bird? We all have been!

We are also curious about VR game developments!

What it does

This hacking pushes Flappy Bird to another level with HTC Vive!

In this game, you, the bird face obstacles in which you need to pass from between them by flying with your own arms!!!

The stunning view of landscapes passes by, nothing stops you from moving forward !!!

How I built it

This VR game was developed using Unity and SteamVR SDK for HTC Vive.

Challenges I ran into

No one in our team had game development experience, but we installed Unity and learned SteamVR SDK from online resources to bring flappy bird to life!

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

We are very proud of our game, which we developed within a short amount of time. We managed to learn and integrate a brand new technology with our passion! Also, we couldn’t be more proud of our teamwork, which was the key for successfully developing our game. Everyone is our team made equal contributions and were dedicated to accomplish the tasks which was assigned to them.

What I learned

We learned how to use Unity environment for VR games 3D model building, landscape design, and sound strimming. We also developed teamwork skills and had so much fun in McHacks!

What's next for FlappyU

We are planning to publish FlappyU on Steam VR game website!
