Depth Charge

Spring 2023 // Universal Creative Lab prompt was to create a full, original attraction. This is DEPTH CHARGE, a motion-based simulator survival ride. Guests take on the role of Hydronaut cadets – or “Squids” – touring their first subsurface duty station. When an undersea monster attacks, Squids must work together to defend against the beast and escape the station with their lives. Front row guests will operate sonic harpoons while back row guests will race against time to hit buttons or toggles to fix equipment malfunctions. Together, their accuracy and response times will affect their overall score. Combining digital and physical storytelling, guests are fully immersed in a cooperative yet competitive game. This was a group project with Tyler Berget. I provided storyboard art, track layout, ride vehicle mockup, and key concept art of loading station (seen here).
