EXODE Alpha, Evacuation version C

This version aimed at proving that even with an “EXE fullgame experience”, EXODE can be played entirely on browser.

It recompressed all resources (sound, video, and images) down to 20 % size and developed several ways to use them, to make it playable on average connections. On good connections, the experience was already very close to the executable.

It added a full loading page and preloader.

More importantly, it added a new navigation system, with the “Action Bar” available once docked on station. This navigation system removed the need to scroll up and down between rooms.

It also added to cockpit an access to Cargo, Passengers and Starfleet.

It improved the tutorial further and refined some orders.

It still had a large number of bugs, but its changelog included fixes of many things noted in version B:

- Menu: Fixed Menu hit detection.

- Menu: Fixed Menu appearance while navigating.

- Menu: Improved tooltip system.

- Menu: Improved popup text (and fixed an “undefined” there)

- Station Approach: Fixed video for wide screens.

- Station Approach: Fixed game being locked up sometimes on 'OK' button.

- Station Approach: Added new styles for lower resolutions.

- Station: Fixed tutorial picking a wrong crew member.

- Station: Fixed overlapping of first crew member.

- Station: Added new styles for lower resolutions.
