Dear shipmates,

As promised, quick update on our work for the Android port: Milestone 1 has completed!

A good deal of Floating Sandbox's code - the core utility code _and_ the physics simulation engine - is now 100% portable to any platform, as long as it allows for C++17 compilation (and I believe this only leaves out my vacuum cleaner, nowadays).

Our testers group is now busy messing with the game to ensure the new codebase is 100% the same as the last release.

This is fantastic news, as it means I can now start coding (again) in Android Studio to begin Milestone 2. An update about that will follow shortly.

Cheers,

Gabe

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.
