How it all started ...


The Beginning: 

Few weeks [actually 3/4 months] ago i saw a game trailer on YouTube while wasting my time watching memes ... That was the trailer of Cyberpunk 2077 ... theoretically that game contains the "next gen" graphics and gameplay ... After watching that trailer i was pretty excited about the game , but as you all might have already heard that Cyberpunk got a nickname of "Cyberbug" ... suddenly a noob idea hit my mind : "what if i attempt to make a game like cyberpunk ?"

But different story , different genre , different dimension , different system requirements .... what if i make a 3d but 2d looking platformer in a "Cyberpunkish" environment ... and with some "Glitches" ?

Getting inspirations:

I am a mid-level fan of Spiderman and a high level fan of "Spiderman into the Spiderverse" movie. 


The artstyle of that movie was literally next level.[specially those comic glitches and urban styles]


 .... why not add them to the game ?!?

Where to start ?!? :

I basically started with a capsule mesh ... i am using "Godot Game Engine" [free , opensource , lovely community] & also using Blender for lowpoly environment designing ☺ [free and opensource too] ......aaand i am using "Photopea"[free online photo editor] for photo editing ...

>>Godot Game Engine

>>Blender

>>Photopea

It took me 2-3 days to get the character moving and stuff ... and took extra 1 week to learn more about Platformer games ... after that i started modelling low poly [not that lowpoly] platforms and started adding them to the scene ...

After 1 month or 36 Days !! i got a good looking environment ...and i was okay to go ....


Next plan:

>> making the Enemy

>>giving the Enemy gun

>>giving the player gun

>>adding dialogues like comics ... but 3d and minimal styled

>> giving both bullets

>>adding particles

>>adding light

>>environments [working on improvements]

>>story [umm done but not that polished]

>>2d stuffs [mini]

>>2d glitches and stuffs

>>adding UI

>>giving AI to the enemy

>>Gaining that urban style

>>Sound Effects

>>Music and ambient noises

....i don't know or care if i can make it or not ... i am learning new things in each steps ....
