Gift Shop, Tanks and Boomerangs

In the beta this week you'll find a number of new additions:

  • Advanced teleport option to allow teleporting anywhere
  • Initial gift shop functionality (currently only contains consumables)
  • Test boomerang
  • Test RC tank
  • More arcade machine LODs

    Gift shop UI is just cubes at the moment but will be replaced with toy models and prices etc. Stuff on the left are all boomerangs and stuff on the right are all tanks for now.

    Let me know if the LODs wig out too much, occasionally will flick between 2 LOD levels in each eye. Still working on that.

    Control tank movement with the touch pad and shoot with the trigger.

    Tanks don't collide with each other for the moment. Tank physics will probably be changed completely but it's pretty fun to drive around and shoot. We'll add traffic cones and blocks to the shop to let you build ramps and race tracks or whatever.

    Boomerangs fly a little too well but seems more fun that way. Let me know what you think.

    Here's a quick video showing the placeholder shop UI and some WIP toys:

    Happy tank blasting!
