For the final week, we mainly compiled the feedbacks from soft and made some changes that we think would boost our product to a new height.<\/p>\n

Laser pointer<\/h1>\n

After careful thought, we decided that it is the best to change our control scheme to a laser pointer control. In an ideal world, it would be the best that the players can pick up things and put them on the board. However, that was never an\u00a0option from the beginning of the project, due to that in order to restrain play field to a\u00a0board small enough to put hands on, art asset needs to be of high quality and highly distinctive. But the resolution of Rift headset made that task seem really hard.<\/p>\n

Although having its own limitations, a laser pointer is a good compromise between directly picking up tokens, and using PS3-like control.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tutorial Revised<\/h1>\n

We found that because you are controlling the Helper in the tutorial but using a small character in the real game, the tutorial became confusing. It taught the player something that contradicts the actual play. Now you can directly control the avatar from the beginning of the game.<\/p>\n
