Winter Update

The first major patch for Fun Game is here! In this patch comes a ton of new things leading up to the full release of the game.

SoundSys

SoundSys is a new sound system for telling the peer client to play a sound via a single network packet. Currently, SoundSys is only used for telling the killer to play the sprinting sound effect when the survivor sprints. Eventually, it’ll become more polished and used more often.

UniversalUI

UniversalUI is more of a philosophy behind UI design more than an actual system, and that’s the whole point. We’re already using Box2d as a physics engine to handle things like detecting where various objects are (ex: mouse cursor), but this patch updates a bunch of older UI screens to follow the new philosophy.

Lobby List

You now no longer need a buddy to play Fun Game! Open the game, click on the lobby list, and join one of the lobbies that starts with “FUNGAME_”.

• the icon for sprint should now become transparent whenever SPRINT_ENABLE is false

• updated the XP ring

• added a quit button to the home screen

• set keys to spawn under all building layer instances
