Get ready for a big update for Echo Grotto this weekend!
Since release I've received a ton of great feedback, and this update will hopefully address a ton of suggestions, issues and options that people were hoping for!
A full list of changes will be posted when the update is released, but here is a quick rundown of the major features:
[list]
[*][b]Many new locomotion options! [/b] You will now be able to use full trackpad direction movement, Arc teleportation and "Grab and drag" yourself around the environment.
[*][b]Manual player rotation for Oculus users.[/b] If you don't have access to room scale VR, or just want to enjoy the game without fully turning around, you can now easily rotate yourself!
[*][b]Full non-VR PC playability![/b] If launched without a VR headset running, you can now play Echo Grotto with controls entirely re-purposed for first person PC gameplay!
[*][b]A complete re-do of how gemstones work.[/b] The way you harvest and use gems has changed and they now serve as more than just a currency!
[*]And several more smaller gameplay features and options, which will be fully listed when the update is released!
[/list]
This update will hopefully make Echo Grotto much more accessible to everyone, allowing Non-VR users to enjoy the game to it's fullest and let you move around in VR in whichever way you wish!
Expect this update to go live this weekend, along with a new video showing off all the changes.
Thank you all so much for supporting Echo Grotto, and enjoy!
