AXION is a short psychological sci-fi VR experience in Unity created as a team project for a XRCC hackathon. The story follows a rookie astronaut whose routine mission slowly turns into a cosmic horror event. Players sit inside a spacecraft cabin, operating buttons, levers, and monitoring multiple camera feeds as tension rises and communication breaks down.
I contributed as the Environment Artist—designing and refining the spacecraft interior, lighting, and atmosphere—and provided VR development support, helping integrate interactions, environment behavior, and overall immersion.
The experience blends atmospheric visuals, spatial audio, and interactive controls to explore themes of isolation, false security, and the unknown—proving that true VR horror doesn’t rely on jump scares, but on slow-burn tension and psychological pressure.
