Dark Mode, New 360° Level, Online Improvements & Powerup Tweaks [Prototype Update #28]
🕑 Added 2021-09-16 18:33:05 +0000 UTCAhoy Davipeeps.
This week's update brings along two new levels: Dark Mode and Agora. Dark Mode is a variant of Proving Ground modified to take place during a foggy night. To aid the Giant in locating the Warrior in the darkness, their eyes emit a powerful light beam illuminating everything they look at.
Agora is a map designed for 360 degree, untethered play—although right now playing untethered is only available via Airlink or Virtual Desktop, we want to experiment with these kind of designs in preparation of having a native Oculus Quest build.
In addition to these two maps, we've made improvements to the Purple Power Cube prototype, and a wide swathe of updates to Online Multiplayer to bring it closer to feature parity with the offline version of the game.
Tally ho,
Davidevs

- New Level: Dark Mode! This is a version of Proving Ground on a foggy night. The giant has powerful light beam emitting from their eyes to search for the warrior, who can sneak around the darkness.
