Dev Log #1


>>> November 12th, 2020 <<<

Story and Setting: 

In the distant future, a major tech company, LAS'L Corp, has been developing a new energy alternative using lasers and crystals. From the shadows emerges three who wish to use this new technology to fix themselves. Emz, Amë, and Chrys are three fragments of a single personality. They share one, crystalized body and wish to merge themselves back into the person they used to be.  Their goal is to break into LAS'L Corp and use the new technology to achieve what they've been seeking after for so long. However, LAS'L Corp's laser security system can be quite tricky. Lucky for them, there are some tools to help them manipulate the laser and avoid being caught. 

Game Mechanic:

 Tools:

  • Mirror: Reflects the laser
  • Lens: Changes the color of the laser to the color of the lens
  • Splitter: Splits a laser into two lasers. The two lasers are perpendicular to the one going into the splitter

 Character: 

  • Main Character has three personalities (forms): Emz, Amë, and Chrys
  • Each personality corresponds to a color: Emz = Green, Amë = Purple, Chrys = Cyan
  • If the laser is changed to one of the three colors, the player can pass through the laser without starting the timer if they match the color
  • Emz is able to see the timer once activated and can swap the camera view 
  • Amë is able to pick up Mirrors, Lenses, and Splitters, however she moves slower than the other two
  • Chrys runs faster than the other two and also has a dash

Art Assets:

Here are some images of art assets currently in development as well as test scenes showcasing the mechanics. We also have an image of Emz included.
