Designing Room-Scale VR for Everyone

Transforming a highly physical, room-scale VR game—traditionally full of intense rolling, ducking, and crawling—into an accessible experience was a massive design challenge. We completely rethought how VR spaces work to build a robust suite of options.

If you’d like to dive deep into exactly how we made this happen, check out these resources:

  • Watch the Talk: Our Creative Director, Katie Goode, gave a fantastic, in-depth presentation for the IGDA GASIG titled Unseen Diplomacy 2 – Developing Accessible Room-scale VR. She breaks down everything from our “comic book” high-contrast art styling to control remapping, comfort options, and our smart room-scaling technology.
  • Read the Blog Post: For a written breakdown covering some of these design philosophies and features, you can read our deep dive right here on the Triangular Pixels Blog.

Thank you all so much for your incredible, ongoing support. Let’s bring this star home! 🚀
