BUG BOX

Project: Bug Box is a holographic simulation built for the Looking Glass display, designed to mimic the wonder of a virtual ant farm. Players can customize their bugs, observe their interactions with the environment, and influence their behavior in a playful, non-threatening way.Key Features:
Bug Customization: Interchangeable low-poly parts for beetles, ants, and grasshoppers, paired with customizable textures.
Interactive Terrarium: Bugs dig tunnels, navigate obstacles, and interact with feeding mechanics within a dirt cube environment.
Immersive Observation: Rotate the holographic cube for multi-angle viewing and hover over bugs to see their stats (e.g., age, health).
Day/Night Cycles & Biomes: Environment designs include dirt, grass, and potential desert or forest textures to enhance variety.

Role: 3D Artist, Concept Designer, and Programmer
What I did:
- Modeled and textured low-poly bugs with distinct modular features.
- Created concept art, emphasizing approachable and colorful designs to appeal to a wide audience.
- Developed gameplay mechanics: bug AI for omnidirectional pathfinding, dynamic interaction systems, and player-facing UI for customization and stats.
- Bug Box creates an immersive, educational idle experience that bridges the gap between virtual ecosystems and real-world empathy, bringing tiny creatures to life in a holographic world.
