Vapourwave-Themed Rube Goldberg Device — Aditi

Context: Academic project at
Contribution Period: November - December 2020

Description

I wrote several C# scripts and created an original skybox for the device.

Brief

Create a Rube Goldberg device on Unity3D to understand and work with game engine physics.

Tools Used

Project Video

Inside the neon scene

The finished Unity scene: a cyan track runs through magenta wireframe mountains toward a striped sunset and palm tree. — The finished scene combines cyan and magenta wireframes with the original sunset skybox

A row of purple dominoes outlined in pink along a cyan wireframe course. — Glowing dominoes arranged along the wireframe course

Green blocks and an orange cylinder resting on glowing cyan platforms. — Blocks, platforms and a cylinder form another section of the device

Building the skybox

The mountain horizon develops from a continuous silhouette into the triangulated artwork used in the skybox.

The complete cyan outline of the original mountain horizon.

The mountain horizon divided into cyan triangular facets.
