No public patches in a while, but development is still moving on Ship It. Last week the game was featured at a few local events including the Portland, OR Kaleidoscope VR Festival and I've spent a bunch of time preparing a stripped down demo version of the game which can be played at conventions without any instruction. I'm trying to add a couple more features to it and then I'll make it availa…

Press 1-4 to cycle through different security cameras. More UI and options coming soon. · A…
Tonight I showed off 'Ship It' to my local Unity User Group, and was sad to run into two big bugs! I've temporarily rolled back to the first patch which didn't have these problems. The two bugs I noticed were · Some kind of error preventing the Deadline leaderboard from loading, and slowing performance to a crawl. Boxes didn't spawn right, game didn't start right, etc. Endurance and Training mo…
Another patch is ready with gameplay improvements galore! This was a tough one to finish as I kept finding one more tweak I could make to improve things, and there were a few bugs that were challenging to track down. Hopefully I can get these patches out weekly, and the full version will be done in no time! NEW FEATURES · Added support for grabbing boxes with two hands!!!! · Added level progres…
Hello coworkers! I got some coding time in this weekend and fixed up a bunch of bugs. Next up I'm going to try and get some basic spectator camera working, or maybe tackle two handed box interactions. Whichever seems like it will progress faster. We had a mini-launch party this weekend and everybody had a lot of fun playing. It continued to highlight how much people want use two hands to grab b…
