Yooo!

If you're reading this, I just finished the pop-up graduation show in the Parsons DT building. If you didn't know about Solarpunk Academy before, you probably came to this page because you played the game earlier today!

To be honest, I was super insecure about my project before the show, because Solarpunk Academy is just a Pixel Art Visual Novel among all the AR, VR installations and other cutting-edge projects. I was afraid that people will see Solarpunk Academy as "less cool" than the surroundings. 

But you guys showed an enormous amount of love! My section got so crowded that I had to open up a new player terminal with my personal laptop. During the 3-hour span, more than 20 people finished the 20-minute alpha demo and signed up for my update newsletter. I am truly grateful for all the encouragement and support!

What's Next?

I will fix the bugs on the Alpha release, put out a better Alpha version and work on the Beta release.

The beta release of Solarpunk Academy will include: 

• 1-2 New chapters
• 2 New characters (Fred, Cello)
• 4 New environments (Library, Computer Lab, Rooftop, Cafeteria)
• Day-night shift
• Fun mechanics
  • Hypnotize!
  • Mindflow Exploration!
  • Laddering! (Strategic conversation)
  • And maybe, a breakfast chat!

Beta release on June 20.
