3rd Person IRL

Inspiration

This project was born because we thought it would be cool. We wanted to create something fun and silly, and what better way to do that then to make an irl game where you, the player can unlock your inner empath and feel what it's like to get shot! Explore the real world of 3rd Person IRL, where you can engage with this unique and immersive experience!

What it does

3rd Person IRL displays a third-person view of the world around the player and gives them enemy cowboys to fight with the player. If the bullets of the cowboys hit the player, the region of the player's body that was hit will be shocked with a tens machine.
