We've made an animated short film:
- set in the original sci-fi universe
- uses a combination of 2d frame-by-frame animation and 3d scenes built in Blender.

Would you help us boost the trailer's visibility on YouTube?

Well, that will be a GIGANTIC artwork
The art style is unusual for our sci-fi universe, too. Be prepared for some "Where's Waldo?" stuff β€” with ALL THE CHARACTERS

We’ve been silent, recently. It's just because we were working on our animated short film πŸ’™

A close-up of the game board for the game Siclen Valley. It has background with a map showing different structures and places built in the beige desert-like area. On it, an interface is visible, with a net of round spaces. On these spaces, round wooden tokens and character standees are placed. On the sides, the different colored dice are also visible.

A close-up of the player tablets for the game Silicon Valley. Two of the tablets are partially in view, showing a complicated system of places for acrylic cubes. The placement of these cubes shows the acquisition of certain upgrades. Wooden tokens showing artwork of different instruments are lying on the side of the tablets. Nearby is a stack of action cards consisting of text and fun illustrations.

A close-up of an element of the board game Silicon Valley. It is a contract card, which is a tarot-sized card showing a character and a request of an object. Behind the character are spaces to place a token of the requested resource. One token showing a mask is already placed on the card. Nearby, a game board lies with resources placed across it.

A close-up of the game board for Siclen Valley. On the front are three cubes: one dark purple and two white. There are also stacks of wooden tokens placed on the board. There are also two character standees made with transparent acrylic bases. One is a tall man with long pinkish-red hair who is smiling at the viewer. The other is a man with blue hair wearing a big, bright orange jacket standing in the wind. These are the characters that players can choose to play as.

Our game was not selected for Summer Game Fest this year. There are two reasons why:
1. It is a board game
2. We did not apply for the event

Here is my favorite page from the Siclen Valley board game rulebook my team and I have been working on for a while. Love it for two reasons: the design and the winning conditions (obviously, I love to win) πŸ˜…
