RCar-A-Go-Go is a Capstone project by McMaster University's first graduating class in the Software Engineering and Game Design program. RCar-A-Go-Go is a 3D game created with the C4 Game Engine by Terathon Software. The software is aimed at providing the Shedden Psychology Lab at McMaster a tool to research the effects video games have on humans. Specifically, the lab hopes to discover the aspects of gaming and its effects on humans due to practice, error detection, and behaviour in response to errors. The main goal of the lab is to understand how well a test subject can handle multiple tasks based on prior gaming experience. RCar-A-Go-Go's main goal is to provide the lab with a tool that creates a consistent and visually immersive environment. Test subjects will then follow scripted experiments in a virtual world set up by the psychologists so that their performance may be logged automatically and then analyzed by the appropriate individuals.
