新たなマップ！

やあ！ 初めて本格的にVerseをがっつり使う練習として、何か新しくて、Epicのロジック負荷もほどほどに抑えたものを作ろうと思って、「ボタンを探せ」マップを作ってみたんだ。今のところ、全体的なゲームプレイとしては順調だよ。

ローンチ時:

• 10部屋

• 各部屋には少なくとも1つのボタンがあり、多くの部屋には3つあるので、どれが作動しているのか正確には分かりません。

• 現在は、誰かが得点すると全員が次の部屋に移動します。

  • 元々は意図してなかったんだけど、時間制にするつもりだったんだ… でもさ…

  • スイッチを切り替えた人がポイントを獲得するので、対戦でもちゃんと成り立ちます。

  • スクランブルのために、このままにしておくかも。

• 現在テスト用以外では利用できない「ボタンをシャッフル」仕掛けがあります。利用可能なボタンの中から、有効になるボタンを選び直すだけです。

別の場所に他の修正案/拡張案(部屋を増やすのは当然ですね)のリストがあるので、ここでもこのジャンルらしく改善するには何が役立つか、ぜひ話し合いたいです。

「短期的に追加予定の内容」リストをすぐに用意します。

Hey, thanks to those of you who played for a bit during that initial discover window. Was cool to hit the "new" page for nearly an hour.

Also for the post likes here. that was encouraging to see, and that it was worth doing the "shows up in fortnite" community post thing.

Seeing a bunch of new people running through maps, noted a few other things I need to fix.

more on that later (updating that external list)

Small update!

1. visual updates

   1. hut level: extended floor radius to match the barrier.

   2. tree cove: raised the floor on the deep water so it's less bad. still needs adjustment so camera can't go below water (or make sure people can swim).

   3. geyser impact: LESS running-on-sky area, but needs another visual pass.

   4. Mason's Office: can't exit the door anymore (i know, sorry).

   5. Treetop: water and bushes. fidelity and visual guides. (so far, I promise not to hide buttons in bushes. that's cheap).

2. Mechanics/scoring

   1. Rounds are 5 instead of 3 now. Mainly to make sure I'm not STOPPING someone from playing as they're getting traction.

   2. Scoreboard is visibly now POINTS and TIME ALIVE.

Upcoming small changes (still 0.x internal beta builds):

1. visual goals:

   1. hide all "cliffs". I don't like things getting cut off on the edge of the volumes. Should be as good of a diorama as possible, and never confusing.

   2. add scatter "foliage" gravel/etc if possible.

   3. related to 1: more small detail objects, so things in the center of the room feel less sparse.

2. Mechanics/scoring

   1. Add more buttons. Probably get closer to having 3 in every room.

   2. I want to add a couple more audio clips.

   3. Maybe set up race mechanic for lap time?

   4. STRETCH: If possible, get statues to work correctly

   5. STRETCH: late entry emergency teleport goes to current room, not room 1.

Publishing short term goals

1. Update thumbnail? A/B?

2. Fix Lobby to look better (cropped too tight right now)

3. add gameplay screenshots.
