Bait! Arctic Open

Bait! Arctic Open was a game we created for the Facebook Spaces platform on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. Its a social VR game that allows you to go ice fishing with up to 4 friends. You can have tournaments, collect different species and interact in various other ways.

It’s a real time multiplayer game built with an authoritative server. The project was a close collaboration with Facebook, who provided the network engine and the avatars that we used.

I acted as tech lead in the team and was responsible for the overall client-server code architecture, feature implementation, feature requests for the network engine (including fixing bugs in it) and creating monthly deliverables to Facebook in the form of pull requests.

The game was released in late 2017 and was features on stage in at the F8 conference.
