Time Activity Speakers 09.00-09.30 Registration & Networking (Breakfast will be provided) 09.30 – 09.45 Introduction and Welcome Carri Cunliffe, Secret Sauce 09.45 – 10.15 Talk Title: EVE: Valkyrie – The making of a cross-platform VR exclusive Synopsis: EVE: Valkyrie is a VR-exclusive, fast-paced space dog-fighting game from EVE: Online creators CCP Games. As one of the first games to showcase the incredible possibilities of VR technology in games, EVE: Valkyrie has played a pivotal role in VR’s recent ‘coming of age’, helping to convince an initially sceptical gaming world that VR is the future of games. This groundbreaking title, developed at CCP’s Newcastle studio, has been widely acclaimed as VR’s ‘killer app’. Join EVE: Valkyrie creators Andy Robinson and Erich Cooper as they chart the 15-month history of EVE: Valkyrie from a ’20% time’ project for a small group of friends in Reykjavik, Iceland to the multi-platform AAA game that has become the poster-child for VR. Learn about the challenges we faced developing for rapidly-changing platforms and under more NDAs than you can shake a stick at, and what it took to showcase the game to tens of thousands of players at events such as E3, GDC, CES and Gamescom. Andy Robinson, Co-creator and artist on the original EVE-VR prototype, CCP Erich Cooper, Game Designer, CCP 10.15 - 10.45 Title: User Interface Design for VR - Challenges & Opportunities Synopsis: Good User Interface design is a crucial part of making a good VR experience, however VR presents some unique challenges and opportunities that require considerations beyond the traditional methods of designing for 2D. In this talk I'll be taking a look at different approaches and examples to help you create great UI in VR. Dan Gilmore, Designer, Atomhawk 10.45 - 11.15 Coffee Break – Teas coffees and biscuits 11.15 - 11.45 Spearhead Interactive: The Future of Business – A guide to the commercial real-time software and virtual reality sector



The world we live in is constantly changing; as is the way businesses engage with their customers and their supply chain. It’s a world of work that is being fundamentally re-shaped through globalisation, virtualisation and constantly evolving technologies such as mobile communication, cloud computing, social networks and big data analytics.



The founder of Spearhead, Dan Riley has spent the last seven years at the forefront of developments in virtual world and real-time 3D technologies; with a focused impetus on the creation of commercial software applications for corporates, educators and governments.



This talk will provide a complete overview of keys aspects of the current real-time and virtual reality sector through the exploration of the technology and its many wide and varied applications outside of the gaming sphere. Join us on the journey as we describe why real-time is such a powerful medium when applied to real world problems and challenges and get a taster of what’s to come in the virtual reality space as we outline our current hardware investments and introduce you to the future of business.



Dan Riley, CEO, Spearhead Interactive 11.45 – 12.15 Title: The VR Puzzle: Assembling the pieces of a non-gaming virtual reality experience Doug Wolff, Executive Producer, ZeroLight 12.15 – 12.45 Title: A road travelled, a road to travel What really killed consumer VR back in the 90s and what can make it work this time around? Are we about to make the same mistakes of twenty years ago or ready to create something new that will make a difference to players? A quick look at the past to rejig our memory and make us avoid the obvious, and a (hopefully useful!) discussion on the possibilities ahead of us linked to media trends, player feedback, social elements and game design. Henrique Olifiers, CEO, Bossa Studios 12.45 – 14.00 Lunch and exhibition – finger buffet! 14.00 - 14.30 Title: Supporting VR in Star Citizen Synopsis: With VR still a developing technology, many games may opt to support VR rather than build solely for it from the ground up. Star Citizen is attempting to do just this and this talk covers the wins, pitfalls and lessons learned from this approach. Jon Dadley, Designer, Star Citizen 14.30 – 15.00 Title: nDreams & the wonderful world of VR David Corless, nDreams 15.00 – 15.30 Coffee Break – Teas, coffees and biscuits 15.30 – 16.00 Title: Rebooting Game Design for Virtual Reality For developers who have predominantly worked in traditional screen-based game development, moving into development for VR titles can be a journey full of surprises, requiring new ways of approaching existing gameplay conceits and presenting many fresh opportunities for interaction and gameplay. As the senior game designer for Project Morpheus, Jed Ashforth has spent several years exploring this exciting new frontier and compiling a new set of guidelines and best practices for how to approach, and make best use of, the new gameplay paradigms that virtual reality represents. In this presentation, he will discuss how we need to reboot our existing design assumptions to start unlocking the mind-blowing potential of this new medium, and will look at many of the new areas and opportunities that VR opens up to game designers.
