Going 3D and pointed at VR

Quick follow-up to the first entry. Since that proof of concept, three things happened, all pushing toward the same goal: getting this into a headset.

First, I pulled in a VR starter template so the project actually has the XR plumbing — controllers, headset tracking, all of it — available to build on. Nothing playable changed yet, it's just the scaffolding.

Second, and more fun: the game now runs in an actual 3D room instead of flat on-screen lanes. Gear is scattered around the space, and a ring shrinks down around whatever you need to hit next so the timing reads correctly no matter where you're standing or looking — which matters a lot once your head can actually move around, unlike a fixed camera.

Third, hits now do something. Pressing a button on time can spin or pulse whatever piece of scenery it's wired to, rather than just registering a score. Early days, but it's the first hint of what "being the VJ" is actually going to feel like.

Still playing this with a mouse, not a headset — that's the obvious next step. More soon.
