So we finally got to work on the AUG finally and it seems we maybe have to do some shuffling around with team members and how we are going to do our game design.
Currently the game design is to use the GPS on the phone to get to hotspots where a riddle will pop up. They'll find that each of the hotspots there are a bunch of QR codes. Each one translates into an answer object which when collected turns into a machine object and is stored in an inventory for later.
Later on in the night the player will be able to load these machine pieces together to make a larger portal that leads the player the the home planet of the observers. We haven't fleshed that out just yet but its close.
