Agenda
17:00 Light food and drinks, play Spatial Ops Arena mode
18:00 Short presentation by Niklas Persson (Creative Lead for Spatial Ops) and Q&A with Spatial Ops Development Team
Spatial Ops is a mixed reality multiplayer shooter developed by Resolution Games that transforms your physical space into a virtual battlefield. Players move in real life to dodge, shoot, and interact with virtual elements overlaid onto their surroundings. With local co-op and competitive modes, it’s like laser tag meets Call of Duty.

In 3D games we see many types of user interfaces. In this session you will learn what they are, and how to best select which type of interface should be presented to our players depending on the player's level of 'presence' while playing your game. You will see a case study covering a fictional abstract AAA open world game realised for this talk and how the UI is structured from the ground up while best respecting immersion in our game world and giving the game's core systems room to breathe. You will also learn how to apply this process to your current game project.19:45 Mingle and last beer at Resolution Games
20:30 Continue the mingle at a nearby pub.
