Wind-Down Desk — a hands-first

Wind-Down Desk — a hands-first evening ritual for Meta Quest

At 11 p.m. the head is still at work: the landlord, the dentist, Monday's slides. Wind-Down Desk turns that loop into a short seated ritual, with your hands, on your real table.

What I built • Each worry becomes an engraved stone you pinch into a bowl: Tomorrow, Later or Let go • Six optional rituals, from Release (a stone sinks into black water) to Breathe and Keep • A glass lamp that proposes tonight's ritual, then waits; its memory stays on the device • The tray lands on your real table, good things glow on your walls, stars rise to your ceiling • Hands only, end to end, with a voice or gaze twin for every action

Result • Measured in Meta's Quest 3 emulator: 15 to 24 draw calls per eye, under 100k triangles, frame script p95 under 10 ms with a throttled CPU • A scripted hands-only evening completes every ritual with no miss; 304 automated tests • Built for the Meta VR Start competition
