mobile-vr-multiplayer

Interact with others in a multi-terrain VR world!

This is a small website created for a competition that lets users interact through the web browser in VR!

• Users appear as astronauts
• A chat bar allows users to type
• A portal demonstrates how to teleport around the map

Technical Notes

• The VR is created using Aframe VR framework and uses resources from existing projects to create the environment and the astronaut avatar.
• The server side is written in JS
• Multiplayer features such as chat and syncing position and rotation of players is accomplished using websockets

NOTE: If camera does not rotate automatically when rotating phone, you may need to go into settings to allow motio & Orientation access. On iPhone this can be accomplished by going to Settings -> Safari -> Motion & Orientation Access.
