Beta testing Locomotion

A number of updates and fixes have been applied from last weekends beta feedback but the beta period for the new teleportation and hand scripts has been extended to allow time for further feedback, testing and an improved final implementation. This is open to anyone who owns the game and any feedback will be taken into consideration for the upcoming 1.1 update.

Greenwater needs your feedback on:

  • New teleportation system (Any room scale accommodated including “Standing”)
  • Re-worked hand interactions

Updated controls based on feedback received so far:
Locomotion can be accessed by gripping the controller and pointing at the floor.

  • To move - release the grip as you are pointing where you want to go (Green)
  • To cancel - release the grip when not pointing at the floor (Red)

The chapel lock now works by rotating around the thumb pad and should be around 1:1 motion

Updated locomotion based on feedback so far:
Initially movement was based on moving the whole room scale with you represented relative to the room position.

  • This has been changed to move the player to the centre of the pointer irrespective of where you are within your own room scale

Warnings:

  • Already picked up some bugs from feedback but you will probably encounter more, please report
  • Probably best not to beta test if you haven’t played it before
  • No reported loss of save progress but no guarantees until out of beta

To keep it all manageable, there is a feedback form linked from the website:

If you spot anything game breaking please let me know via the support email:

Thanks for all the great feedback and support!
