Inspiration

Inspired by the gripping and suspenseful Season 3 of Squid Game, this experience immerses players directly into the Squid Game world across VR, mobile, and web platforms. Think the game looked easy on screen? Now, one can test their skills firsthand!

What it does

An experience where users must navigate along suspended train tracks, timing their jumps perfectly to avoid being hit by a swinging jump rope. If hit, they fall and must restart, testing reflexes and timing.

How we built it

Using Horizon Worlds Desktop editor, scripts to run animations and multiplayer game plus using persistent player variables to store best time, and so on for quests and leaderboards.

Challenges we ran into

Ensuring that only players who opted in (platform) are included in the game and accurately measuring completion time.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Creating an immersive and engaging experience that captures the suspense of the original game, with lots of engagement, almost 1300 visitors as of today!

What we learned

Importance of player feedback! We had a mix of feedback wanting the game as is and for those who wants to play an infinity (and easier) mode so we spawned a sister world later doing just this!

What's next for Squid Game

Ensure replay-ability even when the Squid Game novelty effects wear down ensuring users come back to play and enjoy with their friends and have more exciting quests to pursue!
