PATCH NOTES
Major update incoming with Special Order mode, but Bryan noticed a simple but nasty bug that was preventing leaderboards from submitting! So here is the ASAP fix with some other helpful tools built in too :-)
NEW FEATURES
- Handheld camera physics improved
- Added screen and keypad to control panel so it is easier for a single player to control and stream
- Updated text and scoring of missed blocks in Endurance mode
- Switched grip button to do point gesture, useful for pushing buttons, everyone seems to use the trigger to grab anyway.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed overlapping of early blocks on first game
- Fixed leaderboards not submitting on normal branch. They will still not submit from the beta branch, in case I'm working on scoring changes.
- Tweaked some things about scoring and high scores on tutorial mode
- Updated hand system so grabbing objects has solid performance even if the framerate slows down
PLAN
- Coming Soon: Special Order mode - Currently testing and doing basic balancing.
- Better looking display panel for box value.
- Particle effects and audio to guide new players through their first game.
- Manager dialog for missing blocks and getting citations in endurance mode.
- Add speed up to music in endurance mode based on citation level.
- Give the manager some memory so he doesn't sound repetitive.
- Create in game tips.
- Add remote grab from point mode

Performance Patch PostedNice performance boosting patch is live today! Changelog below. We've also been working on a couple videos that will post tomorrow.

The old models, sounds, and gameplay footage just aren't representative of the polish that is in there now! NEW FEATURES…Post-PAX fixesPAX was amazing!

Here is the first fix, next up will be some more performance fixes: · Fixed vest not facing the right direction · Fixed occasional crash on…The PAX Patch!The team has been hard at work to bring you some big redesigns and feature additions in time for PAX West.
