Escape room oriented to awareness of the problems and solutions of a pandemic

Abstract

This document presents the project report of the Video Games Design and Development Degree Final project by Óscar Seguí Rodrigo. It is a video game titled Laboratory 93 that consists of a 2D escape room based on the actual pandemic we are living at this moment, but in the year 2050, and using BLE beacons for the interaction with the different rooms in the real world. The player will be able to move through different rooms for changing between the game scenarios, looking for the necessary items and resolving the clues in this laboratory with the objective of creating the vaccine to save the people and escape this place. This will create a greater challenge considering that the synchronization with a game and a beacon is very complex and, of course, a great form for the player to get a more immersive experience. As well, it is necessary to comment that the part related to the development of the beacons interactivity is still in progress, so in the corresponding section it is mentioned the work developed until the first day of July.
