The brief

The full story

Physical Effort, Digital Reward

To tie into the 'UDAAN' (Flight) campaign theme, we wanted an interaction that required literal physical effort from the participants. We integrated a physical hydraulic stepper machine with our custom game engine, mapping the physical steps to the digital acceleration of an aircraft.

Accessible Competition

The beauty of the stepper integration was its zero learning curve. There were no complex controllers or buttons to figure out—if you could step, you could fly. This extreme accessibility meant that guests of all ages and technical abilities could instantly participate, leading to maximum throughput.

High-Energy Atmosphere

The physical exertion required to win created a naturally high-energy atmosphere. As participants stepped furiously to cross the finish line on the digital screen, onlookers cheered them on, turning a simple single-player game into a highly social, crowd-gathering spectacle.
