A MULTIPLAYER VIRTUAL REALITY GAME

MOSQUITOES VS. HUMANS is a multiplayer VR game that aims to start a conversation. Our game design highlights that mosquitoes are the most fatal animal in the world (killing half a million people per year) and educates players on prevention methods that can save lives. In the game, you are either a junior NJ mosquito controller whose job is to employ mosquito prevention measures and keep the citizens of New Jersey safe. Or you are a mosquito, hungry for human blood.

Things most people do not know about mosquitoes:

• Only females drink blood
   

• Lay eggs in stagnant bodies of water
   

• Need protein from blood in order to lay eggs

​

• Deadliest animal in the world

Awareness is key to saving lives.

As a team of mosquito researchers, artists and developers, we built a game for VR players of all ages.

​

Our game has a functional two-player mode built for Oculus Quest, developed with an uncommon flight mechanic for the mosquito player. (No dizziness!)
