Diary of a Fly (VR Game)
I was wondering why insects are attracted to lights, and why they keep circling around the light. According to the Infosci-dictionary, it explains the reason why certain insects are attracted to lights. The insects use the light as a navigational aid. This phenomenon called “phototaxis” which means they are naturally attracted to it. That is to say, the phototaxis is a kind of behavior that occurs when whole organism navigates or tracks in response to a light stimulus. The main idea of the game (Diary of a Fly) is from this theory and a behavior of finding lights in the game is the same as flies trying to find freedom for their lives as a story line. There are four levels which environments are composed of shell of larvae, city, nature and space in the game. Each level requires a mission that tries to find light and enter the next step. During the game, users can feel like flying and looking around great landscapes.
