We’ve been busy pulling the game apart and putting it back together in order to make improvements to the hands and add in a locomotion option for people with rooms under 2.5m x 2.5m. Apologies to anyone waiting on Locomotion but we’ve decided that this will be packaged alongside an overhaul on the hands in order to provide a better overall experience.
Plans for the update (Est. 1 week):
Locomotion
- For players who don’t have 2.5m x 2.5m you will have the option to teleport around the space
- This area will be a spacious 3.5m x 4m with the exception of some areas designed to make you feel a bit claustrophobic (not scientifically correct)
- You will be able to set this for either left or right handed use
- There will be an option to use the 2.5m x 2.5m if you don’t want to use teleportation
Options
- You will now be able to clear the saved progress
- All options for Locomotion (open to people with less than 2.5m sq.)
Hands
- Objects can now be passed between hands for easier rotation and positioning without the need to place down on surfaces to manipulate
- When carried, objects will pass through the world, like in The Gallery, to avoid knocking the object out of your hand when hitting a wall or surface
- Updated functionality for future improvements (currently exploring the option of an open beta area to test new functionality outside of the game narrative)
