Plastic Wave
Selected XR Development Market
Information
You are on a boat in the Pacific preparing for a dive to sight humpback whales. While diving, a strange fish catches your attention, and you follow it. Suddenly you’re dragged by a current that takes you to a big plastic island (Great Pacific Garbage Patch).
Observing its underwater part, you spot packages from all over the world, even quite antique ones, and animals trapped in plastic. It’s getting darker, and you want to escape. Your decision leads to either a hopeful or a terrible way out.
