We wanted to focus on the MOMENT of transformation. In the character, and environment.
LOG #4 - FINAL ENTRY JAN 14/2018
We're finally ready to call our entry complete! It took many, many late nights and sleepy days and we couldn't be more proud of how this scene turned out. Learning to use the new Cinemachine, Timeline and Post-Processing features was an absolute blast, and we can't wait to put the skills we've acquired to use in all our future game projects.

Over the past few days we've created a more intricate scene using the versatility of the Cinemachine system. Animation is still in the keyframe stages for the main character, Proto, and we’re planning on adding more demons to the mix. (Right now it looks like they're being beaten up by invisible thugs!)
Using models from the Asset Store, we were able to quickly put together a scene - we got creative, making the train out of pieces of walls, doors, and wires. Then, we slapped on some nifty spark prefabs and the train was good to go.
Since the last update I've really start to understand the ins and outs of Timeline and Cinemachine, as well as how to create abstract looks using Post Processing. It seems complicated, but then you start to figure it out and it's just amazing! -Rebecca Kremer
LOG#2 JAN 8/2018
Here at Sparrow House Games we are two friends with big dreams! Our goal is to to master emotional and atmospheric storytelling in videogames using Unity, which is why we decided to enter the Neon Challenge, as an opportunity to grow and hopefully get our work out in the spotlight.
We decided to forgo the tried-and-true Cyberpunk aesthetic and create something completely new:
MAGIC PUNK
Something beyond the technology of the present era. Something Transformative. We wanted to capture the very moment of change, from the humanity we know, beset by our own demons into something new. Something beyond our understanding.
The character, Proto, was re-created for this contest. He is near and dear to my heart and his design is perfect for the feeling I wanted to achieve for this scene. -Rebecca Kremer
