Solar System: My first Google Cardboard Simulation

This Simulation was very, very simple. The player stands in a space station surrounded by the planets of the solar system and looks at each in turn. Each planet displays a text pop-up with some information about the planet. The project was extremely simple to make up for the difficulty of integrating with google cardboard for the first time. Unity integration with cardboard was a nightmare to use for the first time, but this simulation did run successfully on a phone-based VR headset.
Once again, I was unable to create art assets for this simulation as the time span for creation was short and the focus of the assignment was learning to use Unity.
