Spaceman Memories is a retro inspired JRPG that takes place in a distant future but takes inspiration from ancient Japanese folktales. Take on the role of Uchū hikō-shi, a JAXA astronaut that wakes up from hyper sleep and is completely unaware of who he is or what is happening around him. Given the circumstances he has no choice but to leave the safety of his base and go into the precariousness of a mysterious barren planet. He will quickly realize that even though he is very far from home, he begins to find traces that take him on a spirited but dangerous journey to connect with his own roots.

Currently the game is in the development phase and its process is being openly shared through cool video devlogs. Spaceman Memories is intended to be both a video game and a documentary project about the spiritual quest to share the highs and lows of solo game development being based on a third world country. The open development of the game will encapsule topics ranging from coding, art creation, music and sfx composing, spiritual struggles, mental health, productivity and digital content creation.

This is my first devlog, which is in video format because its the way I feel more comfortable sharing about my process. I talk about the motivation behind starting to work on the game, my personal influences, my decision to use Unity as an engine and the technical process of the first steps to make progress of building the game. Let me know if you had a similar experience when you started in game development, I would love to hear about it. Check out this devlog to go into the start of Spaceman Memories.

This is my second devlog in which I talk about procrastinating working on my game, where I left off months ago and how the code of the turn based combat system works. This is a very personal one as I talk about going into my own pocrastination hell as even though I was working and being productive on other stuff I was afraid of going back to work on my game. Also what I share inside this video about how the combat system works is a very superficial explanation so I created more in depth videos about how that code works. It is a very interesting system which I learned in a Udemy course in spanish by a guy called Juan Gabriel Gomila and it can be very scalable and modular because it uses this things in Unity called Scriptable Objects which can make your life better inside the engine.

This is my third devlog in which I talk about using Kitbashing to create pixel art for my game. I talk about PixelBasher, a bit of game story and how Im using this art inside Unity. I have been using this software called Pixelbasher to build structures for my game and it has been not only a straightforward experience but a fun one too. In this devlog I talk a bit about the backstory of the game but mostly I share how this thing Pixelbasher and how I go into implementing the graphic into Unity.
