Virtual reality games with player motion are getting more and more popular. Meanwhile, the I Expect You To Die franchise has been a staple of seated, comfortable VR since 2016. The three-quel IEYTD3 bridges this gap with action-packed set pieces players expect from spy stories. This talk details how the team at Schell Games fulfills the fantasy of a car chase without alienating their core players—or worse, making them motion sick. It walks through challenges and assumptions of motion comfort in alpha, corresponding solutions in beta, and describes best practices found along the way.

Takeaway

Attendees will learn common pitfalls and corresponding solutions of developing motion intense VR games by walking through a car chase level from IEYTD3. They will also hear how specific decisions were informed by I Expect You To Die's history as a comfortable franchise.

Intended Audience

The intended audience is those interested in VR games with simulated motion, the intersection of accessibility and motion comfort, and the history and design of the I Expect You To Die franchise.
