An immersive and interactive discovery of Leonardo da Vinci’s machines
This is a serious virtual reality video game that plunges you into the Renaissance period to discover how the famous machines designed by Léonard de Vinci worked.
It’s a Renaissance Transmédia Lab project jointly developed by the Centre d’études supérieur de la Renaissance (CESR) and the Intelligence des Patrimoines research programme.
We produced the final version of the game using a pre-existing development. We also completed the portrayal of all the 3D content (décor, machines, etc.) and created all the project’s game play features before adding a web version of the game.
