Flood Adventure is a desktop VR game designed to prepare learners to gain knowledge and skills about flood preparation through authentic and immersive experiences. To enhance learners' experiences and maximize learning outcomes, we optimized the features in the environment following a user-centered design approach. The optimization process focused on four key areas, including Authenticity and Relevance, Guidance and Feedback, Knowledge Enhancement, and User Control and Customization.
