Project Overview: Cyberpunk Buenos Aires VR

Cyberpunk Buenos Aires VR is a fast-paced VR racing game created for a university expo under a strict two-week deadline.
Players control Krammer, a reckless biker racing through a cyberpunk version of Buenos Aires.
The aesthetic draws from Akira and the explosive race dynamics of Split/Second.

You steer with your head and shoot with your hands while navigating high-speed tracks and avoiding enemies.

Technical Architecture

Modular Framework

The game is built on a custom scripting framework developed over three months, designed so every behavior is a decoupled, reusable module.

State Machines

• The core logic runs on a reusable State Machine component.
  
• Each machine manages a serialized list of states:
  
  • OnIdleState
    
  • OnRacingState
    
  • OnDeathState
    
• Each state exists as a child GameObject and contains all its own logic.

Modular Logic Example

Inside OnRacingState, an AI racer may use:

• RigidbodyFollowTransform — movement
  
• RigidbodyRotateTowardsTransform — steering
  
• AudioSourcePlaySound — sound effects
  

Each is an independent module activated only by the current state.

Performance & Centralized Updates

CentralUpdater

To keep VR performance high, the architecture avoids using Unity’s scattered Update() calls.

A single CentralUpdater runs the game loop.

Update Listeners

Modules needing per-frame logic use:

• UpdateListener component
  
• IECallableOnUpdate interface
  

They subscribe to the central loop only when their state is active.

ScriptableObject Integration

ScriptableObjects are used to manage:

• Input
  
• Object Pooling
  
• Racer Data (names, positions, laps)
  

This keeps everything efficient and Inspector-friendly.

Summary

The project delivers a high-speed VR racing experience built on a clean, scalable, and modular architecture, optimized for performance and rapid iteration.
