Couch Party Game Night
Update 25: BRB buttons and Super Jumps
- updated sniper tower structure to give more cover on the way up, plus a floor in between with more cover there
- adjusted ammo amounts for paintball and lasertag modes for those who play without 1 hit kills
- adjusted the randomization of objects for "Mountain Range" to have a little more cover starting out
- added game ending kill shot cam that shows the last player killed full screen before displaying scores
- raised the limit of how steep of a hill players can walk without climbing / jumping up it, from 45 to 60
- lasertag mode now has gear to use, but instead of a camball like the paintball mode, its a super jump
- added a dust storm to the Ghost Town map to give it a little more cover while running around

Working on grenades and exploding heads!

- new map type "mountain range" with a watch tower in the middle and an automatic lift
- random generation of objects now less likely to spawn too close to each other
Update 23: New Mechanics
- improved bullet tracers to better gauge shots, which previously caused players to judge incorrectly where the bullet was traveling (may remove current tracer mechanic for newer "tight with the bullet" 3D ones if not satisfied)
- gun sounds and player interactions now split stereo to the side of the screen they're on
- various optimizations resulting in much smoother animations, especially when set to 120fps

- bullet impact sounds added, which also follow the new stereo splitting mechanics
Update 22: Big Update
- bullet impacts now splat paint and laser particles onto walls and nearby objects and shoot puffs of smoke and debris for military guns
- new large background set pieces randomly generate with every map change, making distanced shots easier to gauge while greatly expanding the feel of environments
