Just a demo I threw together to learn Unity.
I was inspired to create something cool after seeing Blocked In. I also just finished reading Ready Player One and wanted to create my own "private chat room".
It contains various models pillaged from the internet and free unity assets as well as some of my Second Life builds.
(Credit to William Burke for his various rift related models)
It has lots of particles and sounds, with fully baked lighting etc.
Press the right mouse button to start the video on the flat screen T.V.
Can you find all of the Easter eggs?

I really enjoyed this tech demo a lot and will definitely be showing this one to my friends. If this had the ability to change the show on the TV and had multiplayer it would be a nice hang out for us! I haven't really seen to many multiplayer rift games yet so this would be a great one to have it. Thanks for sharing this with all of us!
Thanks man. I enjoyed making it. I'm without power after a crazy ice storm, but once I'm back in action multiplayer and loading media are a priority.
Well.. the game plan is this:
Now that I have building environments figured out, I would like to add some functionality. Not in this exact room. But something with similar aesthetic appeal anyway.
Ideally, we would have:
Multiplayer (with custom avatars)
The ability to load all kinds of media. (Movies/ emulators on the T.V., MP3s on a radio, maybe e-books and websites as well)
Netflix and Youtube would also be amazing in the long run.
Custom GUI ala Riftmax theater.
Object interactions, etc. etc.
I could go on forever.
The issue is finding a good programmer that can work in unity.
I'm really a high concept / designer / artist. I spoke with my boss (I work for a film production company) and he said that the most we could do to start is pay someone a salary of 15k, so, I'm on the hunt.
There is also a small chance that Oculus will help fund some indie teams of their concepts are worth while.
The Room concept is just one of many that I have.
If anyone is interested in working for cheap / free, with the hopes that we can get a Steam greenlight, Oculus help or a kickstarter for some sweet sweet cash, drop me a PM.
I'm currently working with someone from the forums on his top-secret project, but it would be nice to flesh out a few more concepts and get in on the ground floor before the launch.
