Laser Attack!

We are brave and back with our latest report. This time we went for a field trip to the nearest laser game in Stockholm to do some serious shooting!

A laser game is a sport similar to paintball, were you run around in an arena with your laser gun. The environment is a big indoor maze and the game is accompanied by music and theatrical fog. Staffan took the highest score, I only got an average score. Still it was an inspiring experience.

When we came back to Staffans place we started work right away with the bug that made the game crash in Perfect Battle Online 0.7 BETA. The problem was that the game works fine on both Staffans and mine computer. But for some reason it crashed at several occasions on our BETA testers computers. What we were able to find out was that the bug had something to do with the graphic effect "shadows". We could easily solve it by turning this effect off. However we would prefear to keep it. Therefore it would be better to solve the bug in some other way. And that is what we are working on right now!

See ya soon!
