Video of current progress

Placing roller coasters and paths, and moving them around.

(Sorry, when recording, it shows a zoomed in version of the screen, so it is a little hard to see everything)

What is this

I recently got a VR headset and then remembered this really awesome video and decided I wanted to make this a reality.

This is going to be a VR theme park management game and roller coaster builder. I plan to implement all the features of a theme park management tycoon game, the ability to build roller coasters, rides, food stands, paths, and need to manager your money the whole time. I also want to make it so that you can switch from miniature mode, to human scale to walk around your park like it was a real thing.

Technology

This being built with Unity and the SteamVR plugin. The headset I own is the Samsung Oddesey Windows MR headset, but I'm building it with SteamVR so that it will support all major PC based VR headsets.

This is a room scale game, meaning you can walk around.

Contributing

I plan on making some task requests for some 3D models in the future, but for now, if you want to help me with the project, you can join my discord so that we can coordinate our work.

To help with the programming, you must have a VR headset, download Unity, SteamVR, and then open the project in Unity.

For helping with models, you do not need a VR headset as you would not need to test the full game.

Try it out

If you do want to try it out and have a VR headset, you can download an alpha build here.
