Development

It all started after plowing thru a “How to make VR games in Unity” course at Udemy, and after two nights of trial-and-error with some placeholder assets and ton of C# bugs:

With no prior game development experience, it felt like a mountain of work! After that, Jussi started collaborating with Lauri (code) and Teemu (assets) and the finished product was unleashed to SideQuest platform on 10.9.2020. You can download and install the game still via SideQuest: https://sidequestvr.com/app/1624/whack-em-all
