Hi! My name is Austin (he/him). This is my first real game, although I've done a lot of weird little graphics / gamish things over the years. I'm a programmer with an art background.
I love VR and want to build a 3D game for the Oculus Quest.
What idea to pick?!! I've got a few:
* Smokey the Bear based game
* A game where the main mechanic is hanging audio records on trees and slowing down the tapes to talk to trees
* A game that either humans or AIs can play that is inspired by Tron
I don't know how to make #1 or #2 fun, so I'm starting with #3. I will try to keep the scope small and focused, so I can finish in 2 weeks. I will make a github repo with the vision for the game, but it GPU.Spectator will focus on letting human spectators watch AI competitors standing on two platforms try to throw a frisbee or other object at each other. It is a programming game, anyone can submit their code to power their character, like robocode or other programming games.
Tron - neon light themed, synthy music. GPU world. Spectators are human and in an audience and looking into the GPU world.
Open to collaborators! I especially need audio / music / character animation / graphics help.
