Welcome to стаят, a game jam game
Hello, I am attempting to make an entry for a game jam:
https://itch.io/jam/winter-scene-jam

I am not a professional game developer so I'm using unity which I have some familiarity with.
So what is Welcome to стаят (stayat)? Basically you are driving around in a Lada Niva(-ish) vehicle in a kinda sovietish/east-european winter landscape. There is no winning or losing, I just want it to be a chill exploration experience.

So where is the project now? Just take a look at my latest video!


So I have a working car and camera. I need to tune it up still: The camera is too close to the car and the car does not have brakes... Or gears. But it's still early days!

So why am I posting this when it still looks to be in its infancy? Basically I figure that the game I'm making can serve as a way for others to also showcase their things. I have a guy working on some music (thinking I'm gonna implement a GTA like radio station depending on how much music I get) so I can implement music pretty easily. 2d art can be showcased as like billboards or murals on the side of barns etc. 3d stuff, hell, as long as it can be imported into unity its golden.
Poetry? Sure, why not, make a giant stone with some words inscribed.
The theme also doesn't need to be too closely adhered to. There will be snow all around anyway so even if there's like a dancing alien it's still winter themed!
Want to make an entire map/scene in unity? We can work that out. Probably.

Since this is a game jam project things can probably change during development as well.
Also all I can offer for this is credit, if this was one of my more "serious" projects I could maybe offer commission but I can't afford that for game jam stuff.

(Also I got a request for truck nuts elsewhere, if I manage to implement that I might make different truck nuts as pick ups around the map. This could also be like different ornaments or the like)

Welcome to стаят, a game jam game #1


Trying to get the visuals right, going to start adding more props so I can build a little village scene to better calibrate lighting.

Time is running out!


I have now implemented most things I want, just need to build the actual map and make more props and building types. Hopefully I still get some late submissions to the project but we shall see.

Welcome to стаят, a game jam game #3
So there were some issues and basically I lost a lot of progress but maybe I learned some stuff. I'm not gonna bore anyone with the details but here is the current end result:
https://tobekko.itch.io/welcome-to-stayat

There are issues I would still like to fix but I need to take a break from this because I have become very agitated at some things today and I need to not look at the unity editor right now. Git saved my ass more than a couple of times.

I'll still accept art/music/whatever submissions for new versions as well.
