My friend Dr. Louise Edwards is a scientist, educator, and now a VR designer/developer focusing on educational games about Earth sciences. In this conversation, we talk about our experience at the first remote creative retreat she hosted. During a dedicated weekend for our passion projects, our small group discovered the impact of mutual support and accountability. Uncover why the support of friends can be a game-changer in advancing your VR projects. If you're seeking inspiration to propel your VR app forward, find out why friendship is the missing piece.
