Built in Unreal Engine 4, VR Forest places the user in a landscape of dense vegetation, tall trees, vines, rocks, flowing water and waterfalls. Bird sounds and environmental detail support the sense of being inside the scene.

Locomotion and comfort

Users move around the environment through controller-based teleportation. I developed different versions in response to discomfort during testing, making user comfort a practical constraint on the experience rather than treating the environment only as a visual scene.
