Published Demo 1.0 on itch.io
Added 2023-10-03 17:43:41 +0000 UTCI finally published my very first demo on itch.io. You can find it here:
https://relativisticgame.itch.io/demo
The demo is very minimal. It’s just a robot that you can move inside a room and that’s it.
The focus of this release is software deployment. There is no game, yet. Still, this release will let you - for the first time - pilot a Born-rigid body moving at relativistic speeds. Notice how the robot contracts when it moves (Lorentz contraction) and rotates around itself when moving along curved trajectories (Wigner rotation).
My focus now moves to Demo 2.0, the next version. This will be the first playable demo. Its role is to showcase the concept. I want players to intuitively learn one thing about Special Relativity while playing through it!
