new main menu
new menu navigation: pressing buttons instead of “laser selection“
three levels of difficulty

Your Jumping Llamas
Demo and more
Thank you for your constructive feedback for Periodonica. We want to let your proposals and suggestions flow into the developing process.
For the next few weeks we plan a bigger update for Periodonica which includes some points of your feedback. Therefore we ask for your patience.
Following your wish, we offer a demo version of Periodonica on Steam on May 17, 06:00 am CEST. You can play Bowling in endless mode.
Please do not forget that Periodonica is still Early Access and some adjustments still have to be made. Moreover, Bowling will not be the only game which will be released with Periodonica. In addition to the mentioned game we will provide Baseball, Archery and Frisbee. After release a free Olympic-DLC with Curling, Golf, Handball and Tennis will follow.
You can be sure that we continually develop Periodonica to make it a very funny and challenging virtual reality sports game in the near future.
Once again we would like thank you for your honesty.
We are looking forward to your future feedback.
We wish you a lot of fun playing Periodonica.
Small Update
Dear Community,
in this update we tried to adress some of the issues we got aware of and reacted to the feedback we got:
-only 1 Baseball Bat (Left Controller) [some people were confused, the original decision was made so that people may play it with whichever controller]
-5 instead of 3 Bowling Balls for longer rounds
-Objects are now being grabbed at their center - this allows for more precise Bowling
-2 Players instead of 1 as standard - since Periodonica is a hotseat multiplayer title
-Press Touchpad on player switch in order to start playing
Next week we'll have some more assetts finished for Baseball in order to make the level look better, but please keep in mind that Baseball is still Work in Progress and far from finished.
We are aware of the problem that the controllers are only being tracked with 45FPS, which leads to problems hitting the Baseball and we are in close contact with Epic Games in order to get this known problem solved within Unreal.
If you have any issues feel free to reach out to us by commenting in our Community Hub or simply write us an email: contact@jumpingllamas.com
