Dodge Arcade is an interactive demo app that allows game developers to experience the capabilities of Meta Quest's full body tracking. You use body movement to dodge incoming fireballs and block soccer balls. You can squat, lean, and jump to avoid the balls, and your movement will be reflected both by the character on the field in front of you and in replays on the overhead arena replay screen.

The third-person view of the embodied character gives artists and game developers the ability to see what is possible with this technology, allowing them to create more immersive and realistic gaming experiences.

This application is an implementation of the Presence Platform’s Movement SDK which is provided by Meta to allow all developers access to the Eye Tracking, Face Tracking, and Body Tracking capabilities. The code that is the basis for this application is available for download at: https://github.com/oculus-samples/

5/5

interessante! l'avatar sinceramente reagisce un po' con lentezza e non è propriamente fluido il movimento ma e' abbastanza Fedele ai movimenti reali. Ma è un po' poco, il gioco è carino simpatico, ma per esempio oltre al gioco vorrei avere uno specchio nel quale il mio Avatar si riflette e vorrei fare delle prove davanti allo specchio

Good concept but ..

The game imitates my body fine. Just done see me moving left and right. Can't dodge 95% of red balls. Make it see me moving. I move 1 metre left or right and the character hardly moves. Wanted to love it, but eh!!

Good Dodge Game, No Options Though

It's a good game. You don't need a traditionally large space, but you do need a long-width sideways space with some depth so you can side-step left and right vigorously and comfortably. Dodge the red balls and block the blue balls with your hands or body. Playing with a 3rd person avatar takes getting used to but it is intuitive once you get used to it. 5 stars because you can't beat the price of FREE. Works up a good sweat. Unfortunately, there isn't any difficulty options or other settings.

Third person!?

I wanted to test out UBT since no games have properly adopted it yet so I thought I'd give this official demo a go. As a tech demo, it's cool except for one thing that completely ruins the point of it for me: it's third person. You're just looking at this tiny version of yourself doing your actions. Games that utilise this will be mostly first person. You can't see how well it's fitting to your body because the body your controlling isn't even yours. There are no design reasons I can think of in terms of the gameplay on why first person wouldn't be ideal for the game. It would translate even better into first person for sure.
