The only way to survive is to rely on each other.

Enter the Goliath Offices, become the host of the Parasitic Gauntlet, and fight back against the Dream Eaters.

Everyone in the lower levels of Sydney3 knows that patrol officers become increasingly desperate to fill quotas before the end of year. This dramatic uptick in arrests is colloquially known as Swooping Season.

S3PF have declared Faux/Pass a high-level threat to the city after numerous mass hacking incidents targeting Goliath and other subsidiaries controlled by the Corporate Council.

We're currently working on new enemy types that we hope will really mix up the flow of combat.

Here's a look at one of the animations @poppystar.bsky.social has been hard at work on for the VRmin Sentry.

Not all of our concepts are shirty whiteboard sketches! These days we are very fortunate to be working with @ridgelowis.bsky.social on new character art for future hub areas.

When VRmites are unable to find a suitable host, they will form together into a pile of limbs and biomass in order to survive. The resulting creature is quite slow, but can easily overwhelm and smother unsuspecting victims.

The personnel at S3PF Command come from all walks of life. Some have a complicated history with Klo, while others kind of resent her, and then there's June... The sweetest lady in the whole organisation.

If you've played the demo, you might have already seen Mister Grey, but we've yet to show the Dream Eater he serves in-game.

This year I'm hoping that we'll finally get to reveal our cast of villains in their own introductory cutscene...

On the topic of "pre-concept art" and GenAI... If you aren't prepared to draw like this and then send to an actual artist to work with, you have no business creatively leading a project. End of story.

In mission 03 you will enter the Frog Inc. Textile Factory and discover the lengths the enigmatic designer and CEO of the fashion brand has gone to in order to stay relevant in the changing times of Sydney3.

Never get tired of watching people play the demo for the first time!
(I'm super behind on my backlog) A while back the nice devs at @samuni.bsky.social gave me a key to test out a pre-release build. Go check their game out: store.steampowered.com/app/2494020/...

I attacked innocents who were just watching TV! Oops?

This week we are going to be at SXSW Sydney! If you see us at the booth come say hi or reach out to meet up if we're mutuals.

There's also a people's choice vote this week, so if you want to help us win, I've got some details below for that!

Getting some stuff ready for the SXSW Sydney Games Showcase. If you're gonna be there, keep an eye out for our booth and say hi!

Bare fists don't do much against VRmin, but a three hit combo will knock them down and give you an opportunity to take aim with something more lethal.

The new opening for the game is shaping up to be pretty fun! Just got the music and I am in love.
September 1, 2025 at 12:35 PM
It's been a long time coming, but we are finally updating the website to represent where the game is at right now. Still a work in progress, but the Sydney3 page has some new city shots and a bit of backstory.

Time to update the website and make sure all the bits of story and game details are actually relevant to where we are at with the project these days...

Hopefully a bunch of new stuff to see later this week.

New opening to the game is coming along nicely... What's a hacked neural mod amongst friends?
August 13, 2025 at 11:26 AM
Next build is going to open with a bang... Patrons, please keep an eye out for big updates coming to the playtest.
Finally getting round to the proper opening cutscene for SamUni and gang... This game is really cool. The scene is a heavily reworked version of the Mass Hack short that takes advantage of much stronger writing, character motivation, and world building for the game.

Sorry it's kinda all over the place at the start, I forgot to trim it down.
