CVI is not designed as game development software and is not ideal for that application. Among other things, CVI is designed for test, measurement, and automation. Here is a link to the product page for common use cases in CVI: http://www.ni.com/lwcvi/whatis/

 

To create a 3D game would require 3rd party dlls and graphics libraries. What you're describing probably also requires quite a bit of experience. If you are currently taking a CVI course, I think designing a game is a great way to learn. You may wish to view community examples on ni.com. Here are a few simpler examples I found: http://search.ni.com/nisearch/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/tech/lang/en/pg/1/sn/catnav:ex/q/game/
