Floramaestro

Floramaestro is a gesture-controlled game where you can control flower movement and appearance using several unique hand gestures in real life. The game uses the webcam to track the player's movements in real time and it can be used to make flowers appear on screen, change their colors, and move their positions without the need of traditional controllers. With this playful experience, players can test out various movements to try and unlock all available flower designs.

For the purposes of the prototype, only one flower can be controlled and only hand gestures are tracked. As the project continues, more flowers can be unlocked using not only hand tracking, but also facial expressions and body movements. This experimental experience is meant to be a proof of concept for a gesture-controlled narrative game with the same themes.

NOTE: These are model files meant to be run using the program called VTube Studio. You would need a webcam in order to play the game.

This game was created to fulfill the requirements for the Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters Degree in Game Design and Playable Media, REPLAY. The theme for this experimental playlab is 'Whatever You Want', and I chose to do a proof of concept for my masters thesis proposal.
