Experience

Invest in Egypt VR Experience

https://robustastudio.com/work/moi.html

We developed this Unity project for a global event organized by the Egyptian Ministry of Investment to showcase projects available for investors. The project was built as a VR experience with an entirely 3D user interface to give users a completely immersive experience. I created the entire codebase and functionality, allowing the users to interact with all the elements around them and adapting the "curved" UI to give the feel of a 3D user interface.
