⚙️ Pdf Implementation
PDF Generation via NuGet
Unity doesnt ship a native PDF API, so this project uses NuGetForUnity to integrate mature .NET libraries:
QuestPDF – Fluent C# PDF layout engine
SkiaSharp – 2D drawing backend (QuestPDF dependency)
HarfBuzzSharp – Advanced text shaping (Unicode, ligatures, RTL)

⚙️ Server Integration
Unity automatically connects to the online quiz library hosted on the college server. when the “Sync” button is pressed.
PHP endpoint – 🔎 The game sends a request to a PHP endpoint (***.php) that lists all available quiz files in the server’s /JsonFiles folder.
Quizzes directory – 📥 Unity compares timestamps or checksums with the local copies in the QuizQuest/Quizzes directory
Download – ⬇️ If new or updated files are found, they are downloaded automatically and overwrite the old versions.
Dropdow – 🗂️ The quiz dropdown in-game refreshes instantly to include the newly synced files — no manual setup required.
Safe – 🔐 Only read-only access is granted to Unity; uploads and modifications remain handled by the Quiz Editor app.
Result – The result pdf also gets uploaded to sever after the completion of the game.

🧠 Educational Benefits

Why Igloo CAVE?
Igloo CAVE systems offer 360° wall and floor projection, transforming simple games into fully immersive learning experiences. This project is optimized for a 6-projector setup (front, floor, side walls) using Unity’s Igloo Toolkit, making every quiz, jump, and interaction feel physically present in the room.

The game supports synced UIs on multiple walls, allowing players and viewers to stay engaged from every angle. It’s built for digital learning spaces, group activities, and embodied game-based education.
