February Android Port Update


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

Sneak Peek at the New Water Flood Algorithm

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
