SPACED OUT

Four spaceships, one winner. In Spaced Out, DJ pilots clash in a cosmic battle for the ultimate space jam. Collect energy from colored lasers in couch co-op, knock opponents off the screen, and take control of the sound.

But beware: harmful beams can destroy your ship 💥 The player who dominates pumps up their track and increases their recoil – until their mix fills the entire galaxy.

How to play

1. Charge energy by flying into rainbow rays

2. Avoid red damage rays

3. Collide with enemy ships upon charged


4. Knock enemies out of the screen


The more energy a ship has, the faster it is and the further the enemy ships get knocked back upon impact. With damage rays and collisions, the damage percentage of a ship increases. The higher the damage percentage, the higher the ship gets knocked back!

Every player has 3 lifes. The last survivor wins!

TimeLab @ Fraunhofer Institute

Spaced Out originated in a collaboration with the Fraunhofer Heinrich-Hertz-Institut in Berlin. The HHI gaves us the mission to develop an immersive game for their 180° cinema, called 'TimeLab'.

The TimeLab embodies a research, collaboration, and presentation platform for immersive media. It is equipped with a high-resolution 180° video projection and a wave field-based 3D sound system, which all came to use in my project.
