The goal was to develop a game which is intuitive, educational and entertaining. Furthermore, the software needed to be structured in a way that allows for feasible future expansion. This required careful data saving and retrieval. The game gives the player an opportunity to learn and apply that knowledge, all while maintaining a shorter runtime in order to reduce the total time spent in the virtual world. This is meant to prevent any discomfort to the player that may result from extended use of the VR headset.}, language = {en} }
