Launched on World Ocean Day, the narrative-led AR activation celebrates SHEBA’s work on the
world’s largest coral restoration program, allowing people to explore the Sheba Hope Reef,
situated off the coast of Indonesia, from anywhere in the world.
As the lead developer, I was responsible for creating the experience in Unity and worked
closely with both the creative director and technical director.

I utilized LiDAR phone technology and visual effects to simulate a rising ocean inside the user's room.
I developed an interactive reef-rebuilding experience that guides players through the process of restoring a damaged reef.
Through the use of timelines, visual effects, and boid simulations, the reef regenerates, and the animal life returns.
