Abstract

This paper describes Corgi Defence, a puzzle-game in a three-dimensional virtual reality environment. We discuss Corgi Defence's design which gives players a set of intuitive interaction techniques and preserves their comfort in an unfamiliar virtual reality space. The resulting experience is enjoyable despite limitations of the hardware in recognizing hand postures.
