Binary Core - Cyberpunk Jam 2019 [Juanjo - Python Blue]

Hi there!

The jam-man has returned!

Finally I'm participating in Cyberpunk Jam 2019, I could not resist... cyberpunk + scifi + jam  

You have all the jam information on their official page:
https://itch.io/jam/cyberpunk-jam-2019

I have the history, mechanics and aesthetics, now I just have to start with the design in Unity. Due to the short time that I will have, I will use assets that I already have, although as always I will have to create some small models, textures... it will be fun!

Some details about my entry:

TITLE:
Binary Core (provisional title)

STORY:
The year is 2094.

Hiroshi Senzo is a hacker who has been hired to steal information from the multinational Kitashi Robotics.

But something goes wrong when Hiroshi tries to access the company's database... now his life is in danger, will he be able to escape from the clutches of Kitashi Robotics?

The game will be in first person with real-time 3D graphics (Unity Engine) and the aesthetics will be cyberpunk, dark and decadent (you know me). And although it will be very short and the story is not very original, this time I want to experiment with the mechanics, I will try to test something that I have had in mind for a long time, I hope to do it in time.

And that is all for the moment, I will continue to share the progress.

Wish me luck!

Good luck for your project !

Looks very nice! Where are the reference images? (just saw them on Discord, don't worry, it's a joke)

Thanks Yaz and Simon for your words!

Hahaha, yep, I forgot to share here the visual references image:


Other references:
- Observer (video game)
- Altered Carbon (TV series)
- Blade Runner (of course)
Among others.

The main (and unique) location will be a cyberpunk room where all the action takes place.

cyberpunk + scifi + juanjo =

Hahaha, thanks Josh, I like that formula

Last night I was working in the entry and I created the provisional cover (among other things):


Of course it's not definitive, I just wanted to find the right typography and I love this one!

I hope I can start showing more interesting things today or tomorrow!

Great idea! I like the cover.
I don't use Netflix so I didn't know about Altered Carbon. It seems good!

Good luck!

Yeah, Altered Carbon was great, I think there's a thread on the forums about it.

Juanjo, well done with the cover!

Thanks guys for your support, I'm glad you like it!

And yes, if you like cyberpunk aesthetics and sci fi you can't miss Altered Carbon, I loved it!

Here we go again! Juanjo just loves the Jam! (I prefer Blackcurrant or a strong Marmalade).

The very best of luck - my friend! I know you can do this (as do you)

Hahaha, thanks Roger for your words!

Sounds great, and I agree the cover looks awesome!

Thanks John for words!

Finally first WIP image from my cyberpunkjam entry... a dirty bathroom always hides dirty things...


There is still much to be done, I'm not sure to finish on time, but I'll give my best!

By the way... Python Blue is working on music... this gets serious!

New WIP image from Binary Core... the level design is almost finished  (I still have to polish some things), tomorrow will be a very intense day...

You are not human!!!

Hi, I'm V.A.I.R.O.N. your AI to create games, what do you want to do today?

Josh, do you like what you see?

I'll try to do something, probably a pixel plateform game, but not until friday. So I'll not finish my project, and I assume it. Happily, there's another gamejam in few days : the Fragment GameJam, and this will allow me to show unfinished & unreleased projects. So this short unfinished project for the Cyberpunk Jam will be my participation for the Fragment one ^^

And, obviously, V.A.I.R.O.N.has already made huge things here. Love it !

Well done Juanjo!

V.A.I.R.O.N. = Valliant Artificial Intelligency Really Overbooked at Night?

Should we open a thread for Adventure Jam 2019?

Or (more likely) Virtual Assembled Intermediate Reality Overload Neutrino?

Or just plain MENTAL! The quality does nothing but improve Juanjo!

Me, right now, working on my entry... 1 day and a few hours for the jam deadline.


Starting report...

Haha, good ones guys! It's looking awesome Juanjo!

Yaz, that is cool that you will be able to continue in the next jam! I'll be looking forward to it.

Oops, sorry Yaz, my AI was blocked and I didn't respond... It would be great if you start something now and finish it in the Fragment Jam, good idea, please keep us informed!

Today I hope to finish my entry, make the final touches and create the page in Itch.io, or so I hope.

And there goes another image:


And thanks for your wo r  d s........... Juanjo is being deleted from the system......

Does not compute

By the way,
