Weekly Update (Jul 23, 2016)
-
Hi guys,
Another busy week for us -- adding more mobs to the game, and working on the ocean mesh edging.
With the ocean mesh edging, we had to ditch the initial algorithm because it was way too in-optimal; now working on another solution.
Adding mobs goes well -- we will have quite a collection as we begin our next milestone to put together 'Mob Placement System'.
