Tasks for this week:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Art: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Polish the environment: <\/strong>cloud adjustment, models & env for the last stop, skybox, water texture\u2026\n
      \n
    • We found out that it is hard for the players who does not have lots of experiences either intensively playing games or trying games in the Caver\/CAVE system to find out the mushroom in the beginning level, even with the help of the voiceover saying “welcome to the shroom hats pick-up contest. Please stand up and walk near the mushrooms to pick them up”. Therefore, we decided to add butterflies flying around the mushrooms as the visual guidance. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • We removed the fog\/cloud that were blocking the view in the tunnel and added more props on the last island. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Mushroom positions testing for stop 1 & 2. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Voiceover revise: make it clearer for the naive guest.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Programming:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Implement mushroom spawn & disappear for stop 2 before Thursday.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Add VFX to the mushroom spawn & disappear. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Replace the stone obstacles with birds: add spline for them to move. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Fix the head tracker orbit problem: the double images wasn’t right so that some parts of the game was not 3D enough. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        This is the video we recorded on Monday of Week 13 of we playtesting with our faculty, Heather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        It showcases all the art & tech improvements. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
