Sky Runner

Bomber Drone had good bones and a great flight feel. What it didn't have was a reason to keep playing. Turning a tech demo into a multi-world mixed reality campaign meant building that reason from scratch.

In Fire, players douse flaming buildings with water bombs and rescue civilians mid-air. In Flood, the player's room fills with rising water, forcing them to adapt as the environment transforms around them. In Zombie, they defend survivors against encroaching waves of enemies. And in Alien, they uncover the cause behind the chaos, closing the loop of the campaign.

Underneath all of this, we built a procedural spatial system that adapts each level to the player's real environment. Every object follows a set of spatial rules that responds to the player's walls, furniture, and floor space. Moving from a bedroom to a living room completely reshapes the experience. No two sessions are ever the same, which makes Sky Runner as replayable as it is unpredictable.

I also developed the challenge structure that underpins the game, creating a simple rhythm of main objectives and optional bonus goals that invite players to return and perfect their performance. Beyond the core campaign, I helped direct the creation of the sandbox obstacle course creator and multiplayer modes, turning Sky Runner into both a skill-builder and a social experience.

Sky Runner released on the Meta Quest Store in 2024. It has since been adopted by the DNT FPV Drone Association in Hong Kong as a drone training tool for students ages 3 to 81. The game is praised for its flight realism and procedural mixed reality environments.
