For Softs, we pretty much need to\nhave the entire (albeit unpolished) experience ready from start to finish, so\nthat we can show it off to the faculty. Our work really focused on improving\nbased on our feedback from the playtest session the previous week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our introduction was completely reworked.\nThe main pain-point of having the guest place their controller on the table is\nno more. Our programmers devised a new method of recognizing our main \u201cworktable\u201d\nsurface. Instead of placing the controller on the table, all that is needed is\nto have the controller be above and somewhat near the surface. We made the\nMagic Leap read each major surface with a boundary around it. When the\ncontroller crosses the boundary, the surface then gets selected as the main\nplayspace. Due to the size of the boundary, it turns out that simply standing\nnext to a table will trigger this, so all we needed to do was add a voice\nprompt to guide the guest to their table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"364\" src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/artales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/scannergif.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-312\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To combat uncertainty, we also\nprovided a sample \u201ctest file\u201d for Quality Assurance Purposes of testing the\nStamp. Using this kind of dialogue to prompt the guest allows us to have more\ncontrol over what they are doing, while still maintaining the essence of the\nstory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/artales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TestPaper_1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-356\" width=\"297\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/artales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TestPaper_1.png 607w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/artales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/TestPaper_1-223x300.png 223w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 297px) 100vw, 297px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>These changes provided a much\nbetter experience for the guest, and certainly alleviated some of the issues we\u2019ve\nbeen having.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, we also added in the remaining characters, Mochi and Lumps into the experience, allowing for a complete experience to be shown!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/artales\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/mochigif.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-310\" width=\"561\" height=\"422\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While there is still much\nfinalizing to do, we feel confident that these changes and additions will be\nvery welcomed by the faculty, and will help them see what the completed\nexperience looks and feels like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week was dedicated to getting our experience ready for our Soft Opening.
