Donation For Dummies

Donation For Dummies is a VR game designed to help people feel more relaxed and informed when donating blood. It consists of a theater room where a video plays explaining the process as well as what to do before and after donating. For people wanting a distraction, we have an arcade where players can enjoy minesweeper, matching, or solitaire. For those wishing to relax, we have an art gallery where players can virtually walk around and look at various pieces of art. The more relaxed player that do not wish to move around the game world can instead choose to enjoy the scenery from our meditation deck overlooking a valley. Anyone looking to become more informed about the process can make their way to the information center.

Update 2: We added different documents within the information center to read about the donation process, including tips for before and after donation. The art gallery was also expanded to add more paintings for the user to view. The final change was with the meditation area's terrain, it was causing performance issues that are now fixed.

Update 3: A short multiple choice quiz was added to the information center to test people on the knowledge learned from the documents. Painting descriptions were added to the art gallery, which can be turned on or off to the user's preference. Trees have been added to the meditation room, and the terrain has been changed.

Update 4: The theater has been updated to allow the user to sit in different rows of the theater, allowing them to be on the floor or higher up the theater wall. 3 new videos were also added, which can be played at any time. The lighting in the theater can also be turned up or down now. The final change was adding breathing exercises to the meditation room to help with relaxation.

Update 5: The screens in the theater have been improved to stop them from clipping through the back of the screen. The volume can also now be adjusted within the theater. The tree textures in the meditation room have been fixed so that the textures load when the player is close. Particle effects and background music have also been added to start automatically when entering the meditation area.

Update 6: Changed the theater control panel to show video names instead of placeholder video numbers. The books in the information center now have a spot to put the names for the files. The main room and the arcade now have a dialogue system with some branching dialogue. There are new particle effects in the meditation room, as well as new particles to indicate where the player can stand to talk to NPCs. The meditation room breathing exercise menu now works properly. Every painting in the art gallery now has descriptions.
