Inspiration
We drew inspiration from the stress we experienced during the project. Additionally, the concept of sending a "Message in a Bottle" by the beach stemmed from childhood memories of team members. Our aim was to share our stress with the vastness of the ocean.
What it does
Our app "WaveGoodbye" provides a safe space for individuals to release stress and unwanted emotions. With a user-focused design, the app allows people to symbolically seal those feelings into a bottle and throw it away, whether into the ocean or sky. By letting go in this way, WaveGoodbye offers a method to rid oneself of negative thoughts and emotions.
How we built it
We utilized Unity and Blender in collaboration with both a designer and a developer.
Challenges we ran into
Facing a shortage of developers for Unity posed a technological obstacle for this project. Despite this challenge, we came together, engaged in mutual learning, and sought mentorship to navigate through the hurdles.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We take pride in transforming our initial concept into an interactive space where individuals can openly discuss and release their deep-seated stress by casting a symbolic bottle into the ocean.
What we learned
Our learning journey encompassed collaboration, teamwork, and gaining insights into connecting VR headsets to computers. Additionally, we delved into understanding the significance of virtual environments.
What's next for Wave Goodbye
Future Improvements Implementing user feedback. Exploring the option to change the location. Considering adjustments to the timing of the experience.
