Ultimate Glove Ball was built by the VR Developer Tools team to demonstrate how you can quickly build an ESport game that gets people together in VR using the Oculus Social Platform API. Based off our SharedSpaces project we expand functionalities in an ESport game context. We also demonstrate how VR games can have asymmetric experiences. In this project we have players and spectators.
This codebase is available both as a reference and as a template for multiplayer VR games.
The majority of Ultimate GloveBall is licensed under MIT LICENSE, however files from Text Mesh Pro, Photon Voice, and Photon SDK, are licensed under their respective licensing terms.
See the CONTRIBUTING file for how to help out.
This project was built using the Unity engine with Photon Realtime as the transport layer and Unity Netcode for GameObjects.
You can test the game out on AppLab - Ultimate Glove Ball.
This project is an application for the Meta Quest devices that demonstrate a fast pace sport game that can be played with friends or strangers. It shows how to integrate connection between users joining random games or specific rooms, invite friends and group launch a party in the same arena, or join as a spectator to a game already in progress. We also integrated Meta Avatars for players to represent their VR persona and voice chat for easy communication.
The project also includes the Meta Utilities and Meta Input Utilities packages, which contain many useful tools and methods.
There are two ways of testing in the editor:

Custom Packages:
In order to keep the project organized, the Photon Voice 2 package is stored in the Packages folder. To update them, import their updated Asset Store packages, then copy them into their respective Packages
folders.
The Photon Voice 2 package is released under the License Agreement for Exit Games Photon.
Also, the Photon Realtime for Netcode package is copied in the Packages folder as com.community.netcode.transport.photon-realtime@b28923aa5d
since we modified it to fit our needs.
