I did a short video review of my experience in Neon Code. I really enjoyed it and I am looking very much forward to seeing what future projects you make.
Just found your game and am thoroughly enjoying it so far! I hope it goes well because it has all the elements of a great game! I'm keen to finish it and find out what happens next in this beautifully crafted world!
Here is the second part to this awesome game! Glad to see it has been recognised as a contender of best Indie Game 2018! Keep up the great work fubenalvo!!
This has so much potential.. please keep polish it.. its really awesome!!! I have a lot of respect for indigamedevelopers like you. I am just a noob lol :D hugs from Spain :) PD: By the way, I am also a huge fan of Mass Effect ;) I like your eastereggs hahaha
I'm not much into itch.io games, but this game captured my eye. And when I saw that you are giving away free steam keys, well....I just want to say "THANK YOU"!!!
My dear supporters! The game is released on steam with v1.0.
Anyone who want a free key for that version all you need is just ask here! For the start here is some key as a starting present. If you have time, please write a review on the steam page! thank you again :)
Truly outstanding work, I played it in one sitting! Beautiful atmosphere, and the variety of gameplay was great. Will be picking this up on Steam to show my support once it launches, keep it up! Inspirational!
This game is amazingly well put together for a hobbyist! I take my hat off to you (not a fedora, though, we just can't seem to shift those things) for a job well done!
The story is pretty solid, it looks very polished (although there is a lot of character model reuse, but that's totally forgivable in a solo project in my eyes!) and my eyes nearly popped out of my head when I realised there was a driving aspect to the game!
Outstanding stuff, I had a blast playing it and I'll be keeping an eye on updates / sequels / new games from you for sure! Keep up the amazing work =)
Loved the game dude! So much detail and design in the visuals and a great soundtrack to go with it. Controls are a bit clunky at times, when it comes to the driving, but overall had a blast with this! Looking forward to seeing more! Keep up the awesome work!
Wonderful rainy neon world with nice music, thanks. But weird mix people and styles, e.g salsa dancing girls and rock guitarist, or cops in classic uniform and robot cops. Shooting drones is funny, taken by train or jump from Grand hotel balcony is scary :D I hope that will come minimap (maybe in tablet), voices (just mumbling) maybe better hints (or actual task instructions)... and support gamepad control. The most bugs is funny, some is frustrating but luckily a load last checkpoint will solved its.
PS: Driving my car after ending is very schizophrenic.
Why is the game loaded already at 30% progress? I ran it on i5 3570k, 8GB RAM, GeForce GTX 970, Win10
Voice acting was in the plans before, but I dont have the financial background for a good one. Probably that part wont missing in my next game, but thats a far future (more than 1 year) couse now I'm already in a new game project with 3 fellow devs.
Am, the compass arrow is not perfect I know now. That would be much better with 360deg rounding around the display's edge. But the whole idea was to make a really clear almost non-gui game. without any text or gui element on the screen.
And Yeah, the loading bar is faked, because the Unity's loading prediction is catastrophic. So I calced an avarge loading time on the test machines and that is the 100% now. I hope Unity will fix this in the future.
Hey there! Your game looks beautiful and amazing-- I cannot wait to play it!!
Unfortunately, though it loads okay on my mac and I can press 'new game' it seems to no be able to be able to handle it after that. No error message, just an inability to finish load up the visuals and only a couple of jerky frames of suggested movement. It's the kind of thing you would expect to see with something that was too processor-intensive, but I'm surprised because my mac is pretty new? Anyway, no pressure-- it sounds like you've done a great job anyway, but if you are curious here are my specs:
MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016)
Processor: 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 8 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3
Graphics: Intel Iris Graphics 550 1536 MB
OS: 'high sierra' version 10.13.6 (17G65)
PS I'm at the correct resolution, and turning the graphics quality all the way down to low seems to make no difference. Thanks!
Unfortunately I dont own ani Mac at home, so usually I test on friends system. I'll discuss this problem with one of my friend tomorrow. I hope he can say something. He had problem with retina display and 4k, but after he reduced it, the game worked like charm. Maybe the VGA is not Intel in his spec.
Seems to be coming along well! I think you've done a good job getting the atmosphere and ambiance that you were going for. That said, there's quite a lot of noticeable assets throughout. That's not really bad in itself, it just starts to stick out when they don't mesh very well. I guess, in short, it's still rough around the edges. I still think there's a long way to go with polishing most aspects of this project, but it's a promising start. I recorded my experience with the game if you'd like to take a look. Good luck with the rest of development!
Sorry i didn't bother playing it through i though it was a simple run and gun the style is fairely good you can barelly notice the stock assets this games got a overall good ambiance its main drawback is the optimisation i am freezing like hell and the lags almost never stop, and a better player mechanic this is really stiff, the camera plays catch up with the mouse like a Lerp in a LateUpdate, same with the movments.
Again ambiance is on point, needs a bit more scripting.
Probably my next game will be simpler. This was too much to text and polish for one man. Soo I'll try to simpliciter some elements to gain tons of time. For example less NPC or less point where you can do several puzzle in one time. We can say it will be more linear, but more time for puzzles. :)

If it starts, your FPS will be very low. And I'm not sure, it starts.

This game is so rad. Thoroughly enjoyed my playthrough. Would recommend to anyone.

Wow, that's a huge difference. Would love to see other comparisons if you have more screenshots.
Hey dude, I really liked your game! I can tell you put a lot of hard work into it, so thank you for the experience!
Thank you! :)
Omg. This was funny and unique :D Thank you :)

Yep, the Intel VGA is the problem, checked it.
This Game was fun as hell I can't imagine what you would have done with a whole team of devs. Keep up the good work man!
Thank you for the two video. There will be #3 ending part? :)
Just uploaded the final part actually, Thanks for such a fun game
rly like these looped endings haha :D ty :)

Omg there is some wall without collider. That's new! :D Thank you for the video, nice editing! :)
No problem. Good luck with the development!

PS: the menu music is fucking sweet link pls
