#Split screen #Splitscreen
After nearly a month with some disruptions from game development I've finally finished the implementation of the 2-player-split-screen-mode! ๐
What began as a wild idea in the right mood soon turned into a lot of work as I haven't done this before and didn't plan beforehand!
I had to add over a 1000 new lines of code, including many doubled variables and added parameters to existing variables and a few new scenes for UI!
I'd never thought that adding a second player would mean SO much more work! ๐ฒ - At least without proper preparation...
This was definitely a valuable experience and I have learned quite a lot!๐
Besides, I have added a new feature: the "lonely couch", where you can take a seat and accompany a lonely girl - and restore your energy while sitting โก
I could also fix some bugs along the way๐ช
So, what's coming next? Back to level design for the next tracks! I'm especially looking forward to track no. 5 which will have some special Easter eggs added! ๐
Stay tuned & happy racing!๐
