StrayLight Corp. developed an interactive trade show promotion for Nabisco’s booth at the recent FMI 2000 show. StrayLight’s Virtual Reality game, entitled “Snack Attack,” whisked visitors down a futuristic supermarket journey, where their Nabisco product cravings could be filled. The game development was economical because Nabisco was able to work off of an existing StrayLight game template, allowing Nabisco to create a customized game by changing only certain graphic elements and sound effects. Two of StrayLight’s Virtual Reality systems, were rented as the centerpiece of the booth. Each system was placed on a raised platform where an emcee organized head-to-head competitions. Video monitors were mounted above each station so bystanders could follow the competition.
