We're proud and very happy to announce our new game imprint-X (for mobile and desktop)!
imprint-X is a causal puzzle game set on a space base.







One day an AI from outer space sent out swarms of Nano Bots that attacked the people of the Base,
flew into their world and infected their brains, planting Wardens.









The Wardens enslave the people! You are one of the hacker clones, saving people by hacking into
their brains and destroying robot viruses that enslave their minds.



Gameplay
imprint-X is a casual and linear puzzle game where you hack and click your way to defeat the mysterious
robotic Wardens.





At release the game will include 5 brains to save. Every brain is infected with about 15 Wardens each. Every
 warden is a button puzzle. To defeat a warden one has to click these buttons in the right sequence. Clicking
uses function() calls. You only have a set amount of functions per level.

















Every world will include 1 or more bosses to fight!

The 6th level will be a procedurally generated boss level, with endless boss fighting!


Boss

Process
We're developing the game in Unity. Right now we have around 35 levels ready (meaning 35 wardens) with
many different puzzle combinations including timing, memory, forming and much more. We're currently
working on the game intro. In the intro the story has to be clear, because we won't use any words in the
game, not even in the UI. Everything in the game will be made clear by symbols and pictures, it places
great demands on our design and UI.

We will update this dev log as much as we can and provide you with more info! We're aiming for a release
for both desktop (on Steam) and mobile in the late summer, hopefully we can make it!
We love working with imprint-x and are really excited! Thank you for reading and following our process.
It means a lot! If you want you can also sign up for our newsletter over here.

Mobile preview

Looks interesting!

What's the purpose of having the female in the bottom right corner during gameplay? Will she sometimes say things? Is she the "menu" button? Or is she just there to chill out?

Hi there!!  The female in the bottom right corner is imprint-X's main character.
She's a hacker clone and her mission is to save people by hacking into their brains and destroying the Wardens that enslave their minds.

You see, one day an AI from outer space sent out swarms of Nano Bots that attacked the people of the Base.


They infected people with a robotic virus and planted Wardens in their minds.

We made a new trailer showing some alpha footage from imprint-X!

Here is one of our current favorite Wardens in the game!


It has symmetric arms that leads up to a small timing puzzle in the end.

Each level has one simple goal and this is to unlock the doors at the center of the Warden.
Most levels are rather small and take around 20 sec to 5 minutes to play.

Working hard on the leveldesign and making more challenging and unique puzzles.
There is also timing based bosses with geometric patterns flying around as seen in the gameplay trailer.

The intro for imprint-X is finished!!   The musician Tom Croke (http://tomcrokemusic.com - also made music for our game RymdResa) has made some fantastic sound design to our pixelart and cinematic!
We're quite happy with the result!

The story begins...

WOOOOO!!!      

We're super stoked to inform you that we just released a Kickstarter campaign for imprint-X. It would be super cool if you could take a look:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/morgondag/imprint-x



Hope you can help us spread the word and make this campaign as successful as possible.

[Morgondag]

We just updated the homepage with pictures of some of the actual levels already in the game!  

Come and check them out here:

https://imprint-x.com



This is how these levels will look like when you start them, most of them will evolve and unwrap more parts as you play. Some of these are light based puzzles, others are repeating puzzles, moving parts and other revolves around figuring out the correct formation the puzzles should have in order to beat the level.

Hope you like them!

Cheers!

There's 19 days left of the Kickstarter campaign!! We have 50 backers right now and have reached 20% of the goal! Yaaaay!! Right now we're trying our very best to reach out to people and journalists.

The imprint-X development is going really well! We now got 65 levels ready and some super nice bosses in place. When releasing we want to have 100 super cool puzzles finished. Without the Kickstarter funding it will of course take a bit longer time to finish the game than anticipated but we're getting closer a release every day.

Right now we're searching for a few awesome beta testers for iPhone, willing to report issues they find to us. Apply by sending a mail to [email protected], please write why you want to test the game and your phone specifications. 

And by the way; the imprint-X Steam Sore page is live! Check it out: http://store.steampowered.com/app/434310 and don't forget to add imprint-X to your wishlist!

We want imprint-X to be accessible for everyone. We have therefor created a game without any words in it. But we do have a Store Page with words. Words that need to be translated   Want to help us translate imprint-X? We have created a public google doc, where people can fill in their translations. Check it out over here and fill in your translation! Your help is much appreciated!



Help us spread the word! <3
