Here we go!


Hi there!

This is my third year participating in Adventure Jam 2018 and coincidentally it’s the 25th anniversary of Myst games… is the destiny? :D

For this year in the jam I want to make my own tribute to the saga. As a big fan of Myst games I think it’s a dream that I’ve always had but never dared to do… now I’m going to try it in 14 days! It’s crazy! xDD

Well, I started working on this project a few weeks before the jam will start, creating the story, locations, sketching… everything related with the design.

Now it’s been 4 days since the jam started and right now I’m working on the first level (Destiny Island), but there’s still a lot to do. I will try to share the progress but I can’t promise anythign… the time is the boss!

But I’m not alone, my friend and composer Python Blue is helping me with music (thank youuu!) and he is making a gorgeous work, very soon I will share some themes so that you can judge them yourselves.

For now, here are some images (WIP) of the creative process, remember that this is a jam (14 days) and the game is being developed only by one person so it’s possible that some things can change, nothing is definitive:

First sketches of the island:

Blockout in Unity:

Replacing blocks:

Finally some technical aspects for those interested:

  • Engine: Unity 2017.3

  • 3D models: some created with 3D MAX others are from my 3D library

  • Textures are made with Photshop and Quixel Suite

  • I’m using a special asset from Unity store for mechanics, menu, UI… (my programming skills are very poor)

See you soon!

More progress! Finished the sky with some lovely pink clouds! It seems that I have almost finished with the exterior, next step: the house interior, add interactive props, add puzzles, main menu… a lot of work!

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

So here's the first of the zodiac signs i will make for the next weeks.

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?
