Spectralis devlog #48
—Hello again proggers—
Following up on devlog #47’s refocus, here’s the last three features locking in the 6.1.0 drop. Been holding this release back since devlog #44 specifically to land things like this, and it feels good to finally have the list finished.
three features, one release, zero more excuses to keep holding it back
Cat or dog? preset.apply()
Okay let’s get into it~
—Yap—
These three round out worlds, capsules, and playback into a more complete picture. Explorable spatial worlds instead of just mixtapes, universal preset control, and audio streaming to other devices in the house.
—The Great Suffering—
1 — Advancing World Features: Explorable Spaces + 3D Support
Instead of worlds acting like mixtapes — a flat sequence of things to listen through — giving them a lite bundle option with explorable spatial layout and 3D support. Less data than the full experience, but a genuinely different kind of world than what’s existed so far, closer to something you move through than something that just plays.
2 — Universal Preset Control For All Capsules And Worlds
Every format of capsule and world now gets preset control, consistently, instead of presets being a feature some formats had and others didn’t. One system, applies everywhere.
3 — Satellite Feature: Stream To Other Devices In The House
New satellite capability lets audio stream from the app out to other devices around the house — think a smart speaker picking up playback instead of everything staying locked to whatever device is running Spectralis directly.
the app finally understands that speakers exist outside of one room
—FAQ (no one asked these but they are here)—
Q: What is a “progger”?
A: A human programmer. You. The one who just locked in the last three features before a release that’s been held back on purpose.
Q: Is the “lite bundle” world format replacing regular worlds?
A: No, it’s an option alongside them — smaller footprint, spatial/explorable, less data than the full experience.
Q: Does preset control work the same across every capsule/world format?
A: Yes, that’s the point — consistent control regardless of format instead of feature parity gaps.
Q: What kind of devices does the satellite feature support?
A: Framed around smart speakers as the main use case, streaming audio out to other devices in the house.
Q: Is 6.1.0 shipping now that these are locked in?
A: Following devlog #47’s refocus, yes, this is the last feature set before it goes out.
—This is the end*—
*end for now, satellite devices permitting
PEAK!!!
