Wizards' Duel

Step into the world of wizardry in the Walpurgis night and battle your opponent with magic! Draw runes into the air to cast spells, but be careful to not get hit yourself.

“Wizards’ Duel VR” is a co-operative VR game with haptic feedback. Two players step into the roles of magicians and duel each other by casting spells. Each spell is chosen by drawing its unique symbol into the air. A spell is fired by a forward motion of the non-dominant hand. This implementation of player action was chosen, so players would only have to use one button throughout the whole game, used for drawing. To make the game more immersive, each player wears a haptic feedback vest. When hit by a spell the vest vibrates in the corresponding area.

The game was presented at the Walpurgis night festival at the HAW Hamburg. It was also submitted for the Ditze award and won first place in the category "Games / Apps".
