New City



This game born in a game jam, Godot Wild Jam 29 .

I thought around the theme, Nomad, what could be the life of a nomad if he found a place where he wants to stay? How people will react to his culture, his "magic", his vibe?

So.. it can be a good adventure.

I made the mesh of the place in the beginning, mi ispiration was a real city, then I made some mesh of people drew the texture and made the animation.

A requirement (wildcard for the jam) was to add a pet... so I remembered once I saw a man in the city with a duck... I made a character of the duck.

I made a simple engine to let evolve the storyline between the player and the entire environment.

In the last hour I made the first two "story" and submitted to the jam.


During the rating period of the jam the upload was locked, and... my web version of the game had a bug, frezing on loading of game scene after the first intro scene. "It never happened on my pc neither in my testing" (and it's true.)!

Anyway I did suggest to wait in the description and to use the downoaldable version.


I thought it was a problem of loading resource, then I made an interactive loader ... but I discovered that this wasn't critical.

In the end I found that the game engine was set to export with GLES3 and that GLES3 isn't supported well from all the browser... I switched to GLES2 and everything (seems) to be ok.


But Now...

I saw this game jam of Improvement,  improve my game jam, and I thought something...

then during my improving the game for the  improve my game jam 


Added the possibilities of changing language, switching between Italian and English.

A little improvement in the interface, to see better the word on the background.

Some minor adjustement on the visual, like the particles in some specific case.


... and after talking on a discord server of the game jam I decided also to add other... 


I designed the mesh of two little monsters kid thinking they can run around and made the simple animations of running. 

Then I thougt that I can have another interaction with a couple, and made the mesh of characters, drew their skin and made a nice animation of eating, after that designed also something to eat.

Thinking to this new dynamics was really funny.
