• The high-octane, high up, 3D Hoverboard racing
  game!

THE GAME

• In our game, you stand on a hover-board and race
  around a track suspended in air, over lava.
• The biggest schmuck of the year- Mad Magazine
• Its good- Dan Powers

THE PROCESS

• Began with 50 x 50 VR room program.
• Added hover-board
• Made forward movement faster,
• Changed room into track
• Added lava field
• And, wha-la! A racing game!

Problems, and What we Learned
Collision Detection

• Makes objects solid. Its hard. Heres why
• Computer must figure out where hover-board can go
  by solving geometric equations.
• When collision occurs, board must be stopped at
  edge of wall, or bounce off wall.

6
We skipped that. So, the driver could go 50 ft.
over lava, but oh, well. In closing
Collision Detection is a pain in the ass!!!
7
OpenGL is used for a LOT of programs!
All the 3D screensavers that come with Windows
are made with OpenGL.
8
Quake III, Unreal, Unreal Tournament, and UT 2K3
were OpenGL-made.
9
OpenGL works with virtually every platform,
including Linux. Linux Y OpenGL!

And, finally, TEAPOTS are cool!!!
