Edition 14, Week 24
Welcome to the 14th edition of the Sunday Report!
I'm super proud to announce that Midori (r/MidoriApp), the native Xbox Remote/Cloud Play has finally shipped yesterday with the iPhone/iPad and Apple TV versions expected to drop tomorrow! I hope you guys enjoy it and please send me any feedback or feature you'd like to see!
The Asobi Porting Initiative
Porting of Asobi is going quite well, and you'll see it launching sooner rather than later, so I'll go into it per platform:
- Android
Getting approval on the Google Play Store seems to be taking longer than expected, I still expect to get it any moment now. Also I've started work on the next update!
- Steam (Windows/Linux)
The current plan is to submit the latest Linux build on either Tuesday or Wednesday for approval. When that happens the Play Test will start. Windows and the Windows ARM version need some more internal testing.
I'll try to get them available for the Play Test as well, but no promises. I do however aim for those versions to drop when Asobi is officially launched on the Valve store. Check the gallery if you want to see some in progress screenshots.
- Meta Quest
Work has started on setting up the immersive screen and light spill modes, I still expect this to be released this month, pending approval of the Meta Quest store of course.
- PS Vita
I've done some research on this, and it might actually be feasible, I'm going to experiment on the hardware and see where it takes me. If it works -> then expect it to be a free version of Asobi.
Background colours
What's new is that I'm adding background colour selection to the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV versions of Asobi and they should become available tomorrow.
Since App store updates slow down to a crawl in the weekend I thought I might as well pull version 1.3.5 and add this feature. Expect it to drop tomorrow!
New 3D modes.
There's new 3D modes coming very soon to the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV versions of Asobi, which will be Anaglyph (red/cyan) and TriOviz INFICOLOR 3D modes. I'm just waiting on Amazon to deliver them so I can see how well they look and if they're in need of any adjustment.
I'm aiming to drop the update which supports these modes in week 24! I hope you guys like it. It's a very low**-**cost method to enjoy 3D, and it looks quite decent from what I managed to view it with the paper glasses I still had from an old Batman copy, not a great fit though -> my head's too big.
Also the images in the gallery should work with Anaglyph and TriOviz INFICOLOR glasses, so give it a go!
Midori version 1.0.1
Thanks for all the feedback you've sent me in the last 24 hours, I've started work on the next update, which should add Cloud Favorites, a couple of bugfixes and some styling changes!
In Closing
Thanks again for all your continued support! Keep the feedback coming! Share your setups (I love seeing them), and game on! 🔥🔥🔥
