The Snap, development log: Day 7

Mac build (r50)
Windows build (r50)

Status: The snap works. Press space bar to jump 5 seconds back in time. (When I’m playing with the gamepad, I map this to right trigger.) Bullet physics also work now, or at least, bullets can collide with things.

Limitations: You can coexist with the past but you can’t change it. You can shoot “past selves”, but (1) they can’t shoot you, their bullets just pass through you right now and (2) shooting them really has no effect since bullets don’t do damage yet. There’s no kind of visual effect associated with the snap right now so squares just kind of appear and disappear jarringly and it looks “wrong”.

Is the sound effect on “shooting” too annoying?
