Official docs page here (still in progress) -> Exploratory Docs

Play the Demo! Now includes a 'Demo' button that allows you to instantly jump into a scene and get a feel for the game. N-Panel>'Create' Tab> 'Demo' Button>

Find Exploratory tools in the N-Panel AND in the custom node graph titled 'Exploratory Nodes'

To install: 1. Download Exploratory 2. Blender>Preferences>Addons>Install From Disk> Exploratory.zip

Exploratory will be an extension upon full release. For now, all new BETA versions will have to be installed manually.

Adjust settings and performance in the addon preferences.

To get started, mark any mesh as a 'Proxy Mesh' and mark a spawn object. Press play. A default character, audio, and animations will automatically be appended and the game will start. 

If you are having performance issues try tuning the performance settings in the preferences.

Fullscreen mode is significantly faster than windowed mode. 

Performance is key. Simplify geometry, use game assets, use appropriate sized images, etc.

More docs to come in the future, for now ask questions in the Discord!
