Blobby Tennis release for Oculus Quest On Friday night I had the urge to release something for Oculus Quest, so I dug out Blobby Tennis, which I already tweaked to work on the Quest, made a build and put ProjectZ - Day 429 (Lights, Shadows and Reflections) I replaced my zombies with some more zombie like models and started tweaking the graphics :) Environment My static environment is sharing a single lightmap texture which I baked in Blender. The static detail Project Z - Day 0 to 400 (Recap) Z Mission was the game my team developed during one of InnoGames game jams about 1 year and a half ago. It was a simple puzzle game with zombies, with the goal for Ghost Or that's what my blog probably looks like... Anyway, I thought it's time for a change and switched my blogging software away from Anchor to Ghost. I also switched from Apache to Nginx Echo Arena What can I say... after writing my previous blog post about Project Swords I started downloading the open beta of the VR game Echo Arena and couldn't stop playing since. In Echo Arena Project Swords - Devlog 3 - Networking Basics After spending way more time than expected on getting microphone input and output to work correctly and fixing a bug in libsoundio along the way and a week at WWDC, I finally got Project Swords - Devlog 2 - Audio Playback The Goal I want a fast and lightweight library handling 3D audio sources in a game environment as realistic as possible. This includes occlusion, realistic attenuation and delay based on the distance as Project Swords - Devlog 1 - The Masterplan and Physics Problems Blobby Tennis I just launched Blobby Tennis on Steam [http://store.steampowered.com/app/628530] and the Oculus Store [https://www.oculus.com/experiences/rift/1449841275090025/] as a very small, but free VR GGJ17 and Anchor Switch to Anchor As you may or may not have noticed, I switched the blog software from pants to Anchor.
