Abstract

This paper explores the impact that high consequence feedback has on a player in VR, and the behavioural changes of the player while playing a game with and without the feedback. Virtual Reality being a highly immersive system, it is an appropriate format to test this kind of feedback and its effects. The paper outlines the process taken to develop a system to provide high consequence feedback, and interfacing that with a VR game developed to test the system. The work undertaken in this paper hopes to outline the effectiveness and implications consequences have on the experience of video games.

The project was built in Unity 3D, and was built to be compatible with Windows Mixed reality.

The source was a prototype built for an old version of Unity and would require the custom shock collar hardware.
