Special Delivery 2.2 Update
Hi Everyone!
Special Delivery 2.2 is now available! This update includes a major rework of our menu interaction for Oculus Touch and Vive users. Based on user feedback the old system of grabbing and selecting options on a paper was very clunky and problematic at times when players happened to drop menus on top of one another. So, we scrapped all of that and replaced it with a much simpler and streamline point and click system!
In addition to the menus we made several bug fixes to our Breaking News Overtime game mode and several other optimizations throughout the game.
We hope you enjoy version 2.2 and the new menu interaction system!
2.1b Hotfix
Yesterday we posted our 2.1b update. This update includes the following fixes/improvements.
-newspaper menus have been optimized
-trees in tutorial level and several objects in section 3 of the neighborhood were not triggering a bike crash
-optimizations to particle effects
-updated virzoom sdk with improved bike detection
-audio options sliders should now save their positions properly
Our next update will be focused on improving the menu ui interactions for motion controllers. So stay tuned for future updates!
