I made a VR game to propose to my girlfriend

  • For ~1.5 months I spent my evenings and weekends to make my first VR game. My girlfriend had no idea I had any involvement in the making of this game - let alone that I was going to propose to her.
    #surprise #vr #game #vrgaming #proposal #engagement #indie #indiegame #playthrough #girlfriend #fiancee #wife
    The first levels are deliberately "generic" looking, to lead her astray and make the surprise (9:36) even bigger.
    💖 Hints/insiders in the game:
    • "Welcome to a new chapter in your life"
    • Ring collection.
    • "...help me first and then you can play with more rings..."
    • We used 7x"chicken" as a nickname, which is why there are 7 chicken to upright.
    • "need your help over at the school"; we met at a school.
    • A paper landscape in a school locker was my "pickup line".
    • Had our first date on the Golden Gate Bridge.
    • Modelled part of our flat.
    • We have a love/hate relationship with our Roomba.
    • While she was playing I switched into a similar bowtie/shirt as the robot.
    • etc.

    Sorry for having been a bit quiet... We read all the heart warming comments and to be honest; we are a bit at a loss of words.
    The world is a crazy place these days and you all have given us something more special than anything we could have hoped for to start our life together: That the world is still kind and loving.
    So for the lack of a stronger expression: Thank you!! And stay awesome :)
    And spoiler:

      Not every proposal needs to be like another. The best proposal you can do is the one that suits you two's lifestyle and personality the most! For some people the best proposal can be this, for others it can be a perfect evening in their favorite restaurant followed by a proposal, for others it can be a proposal after a day in Disneyland, etc. Everyone has different things they love and tying it into your proposal is the key to make it the most special :)

    I actually attended a marriage in virtual reality because the 2 people both had relatives in other countries, but they wanted to make sure everyone could attend. They walked down the aisle, kissed, put on the rings, said their vows, had to reception, took marriage photos--ALL OF IT in vr. It was honestly really cool, beautiful, and scary. I cried, and not just because my forehead hurt after the first 2 hours.

      Oh wow that’s really interesting and cute! Out of curiosity, did everyone have to get VR headsets for this, or how did it work? I’m super interested :) it’s such a cool idea to put into fruition

    • @dearformerself
      @dearformerself Рік тому +1

      @janetliu5231 That's a good question! Luckily, most of the people who attended the event already had VR headsets from other family gatherings in the past. They were a pretty techy family, and wanted to stay well-connected even though they were spread all over. I think they may have bought a few of the super close relatives (like, I think, their parents and maybe siblings) headsets. it was just taking into account as part of the cost of the wedding). There were a couple of people--maybe 10 or 12 (it was kind of a small wedding)--who didn't. But the entire thing was done on this app called Altspace, which has a 2D Desktop mode so you can interact with the virtual world without a VR Headset.

    The UA-cam recommendations algorithm is a magical thing, but this proposal is even more so! It's enough to make a grown man cry...and that's okay. You know that feeling that you get when some big moment is about to happen to a bunch of characters you really love in a show, those, butterflies, for lack of a better description. This video was the first thing I’ve ever watched to have given me that in three minutes. The talent and care put in to make a life changing experience so special is beautiful. This was so incredible! You managed to pull just the right amount of heart strings. You truly went above and beyond with this! I wish you both the best, I can tell there is so much love there.

    “What greater thing is there for two human souls then to feel that they are joined for life, to strengthen each other in all labor, to rest on each other in all sorrow, to minister to each other in silent, unspeakable memories at the moment of the last parting?” George Eliot once said. I don’t cry much, I tend to be rather calm emotionally. The end of the video still got a few tears from me. That experience is going to be a memory that will never be forgotten. It reminds me of how I proposed to my wife by testing several missiles, making the smoke from the missiles colorful, all launched in a way to form a rainbow. As I kneeled down, the case I held was a special button that said Yes on it, and as she pressed it, one more missile launched for fireworks. It was beautiful.

    *you have pulled off legitimate, real world magic.* and, most importantly, you have... so much love in your soul. i teared up just thinking about how much you genuinely care about your girlfriend (now wife!!! :D). i don't know what else to say. you're just so loving and caring, and spending roughly 2 months, going sleepless to craft this beautiful experience is just...
