Multiplayer system
The most difficult thing about this project is the multiplayer system, these are some important chooses i made while making this system:
1. Party size: the game is up to 4 player multiplayer, we chose for a maximum of 4 players to keep the map small while not making it to chaotic.
2. Room selection: We Choose to use room codes instead of a room selection screen because this was easier so we have more time for VR system and main game play mechanics.
3. Ready up: To check if everyone was ready to play we did something creative, we used a small room in the lobby were everyone can meet if they are ready. If everyone is in the room at once, the game will start. We did this to give the players the ability to hang out in the lobby while waiting instead of waiting in front of a screen.
