Help Geezer Mcgee complete his yard work by mowing the lawn for him while trying to destroy the mischievous gnomes invading his wonderful backyard! Protect your lawnmower and smash as many gnomes as possible to earn your paycheck! Knock-A-Gnome is VR lawnmowing simulator where you are in a lawnmower In game going around mowing Geezer Mcgee's lawn while destroying the mischievous gnomes around his garden. While you're not only in VR you're also sat on a roto chair which rotates in sync with the lawnmower in game.
On Knock-A-Gnome I worked on designing the look of the backyard putting together where environment assets went and placing where all the gnomes were to be at in the backyard. I also created some of the funny gnome animations seen throughout the experience. One other big part I played in for was testing if people would experience terrible motion sickness in VR while being turned in the roto chair. Which surprisingly the roto chair actually helped with the feeling of motion sickness since it would turn you in sync with the lawnmower turning in VR.
