Samurai Unicorn

Support this series, it's going to be an instant classic!

Thank you! This was our first expo experience, but definitely looking forward to future ones now. I think Friday was the busiest day, but it felt nice and active the whole time.

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!

When it gets printed I'll crack it for an authentic touch!

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!

It will be slightly more effective against single targets in the next update!

It is doable (aside from the first boss), but you'll be doing it for a while!

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.

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.

You should check out the Sydney3 page... Got some first looks at future areas of the city and some more backstory.

www.samuraiunicornps1.com/sydney3

White text on black: The year is 1998 Sydney3 is struggling under the oppressive rule of the Goliath megacorporation and the merciless S3PF A dangerous parasitic plague is sweeping through the lower levels and rogue hacker groups are threatening to tear the whole city down In the depths of an abandoned research facility, a young detective becomes the unwilling host of the Parasitic Gauntlet... Granted the ability to summon Samurai Unicorn, Klo Mitchells has become the only one capable of fighting back against the Dream Eaters Master the power of Unicorn and save Sydney3 before it's too late

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.

There's still time to completely reshuffle the game once we finish it to make that happen!

I hope with the full scene this is clearer 😅

Auto-moderation jumping the gun a bit 😏

Damn, that auto-moderation is on-point. But also spoilers, Klo doesn't actually shoot herself in the head, that would be a crazy way to start Samurai Unicorn!

New opening to the game is coming along nicely... What's a hacked neural mod amongst friends?

For clarification: update won't be ready until we get the new cutscene looking right and with some appropriate music from the game's composer Darren Lim.

Next build is going to open with a bang... Patrons, please keep an eye out for big updates coming to the playtest.

Thanks for playing the demo, looking forward to checking out your playthrough!

YouTube video by Avalanche Reviews Samurai Unicorn is Peak Cyberpunk Horror : [DEMO]lition

Avalanche Reviews played our Goliath Offices demo and made a video about it. I think it might be the best overview of what we're working on available right now and gives some fair critiques for the early build.
