Production Timeline
10/18	2 hrs	Brainstorming: Thought of the original idea and pitched it
10/20	6 hrs	Bulk of the project: Made the basic VR project. Pivoted to boat moving in an endless ocean instead of a river. Struggled with lag and ugliness. Decided to only release for Android since iOS has a ridiculous developers’ fee.
10/30	2 hrs	Class time: Prof. Corbett told us that the lag is caused by Unity’s terrible water shader, and not just the number of polygons in the scene as we suspected. We agreed to use a custom water shader. We also took a suggestion to have something cute and organic die in the boat for an impact.
11/7	4 hrs	Final touches: Added a more efficient water shader to eliminate lag, added a cute bunny that dies tragically.
