Continuing Polaroid

The past few days I expanded a lot how the Polaroid works. When the player uses it, the camera will flash and print out a photograph from the front. Like so:

Shinobu can also now inspect photographs. I will be encoding metadata into each texture when they are saved so when she looks at a photo, she will have a different reaction depending on what it is. For now I have a standard generic reaction but the plan is to make her angry if she finds your stash of panty shots.

I also implemented a system for the player to delete photographs. I wanted the system to be as natural as possible for VR and so I settled on actually ripping the photo in half:

The gif above demonstrates deleting photos for keyboard users. For VR users you will have to move apart the controllers physically when grabbing the photo to rip it up. Just like if you were ripping up the real thing. This was very finicky to get working right.

I am roughly 70% done with the polaroid camera. The next behavior after this will be poking. I have yet to decide the release date for v0.4 as I am currently checking my calendar for the best day. Stay tuned.
