I'm Not Even Human is a dystopian short film I directed in 2018. I'm Not Even Human ( The Game ) is a game in the same universe and with same characters as I'm Not Even Human. The game is done in pixel art style drawn primarily by ayyzee ( ayyzee.net ). The game engine is written almost from scratch by me. Using python, GTK and Cairo.
Originally I wanted to make a 3D open-world game. But Blender Game Engine would crash way to often when I tried loading parts of the world dynamically. Later I've lost the project entirely. The only remaining thing from the project is the rig of the main character which is standing as a statue in the world of J.U.M.P Limited. ( Technically speaking I have a model of another character, without textures and without a rig, standing as a statue in a world of Moria's Race ).
Anyway, since I didn't have the assets anymore. And I didn't want to re-do them. I decided that I might as well make the game in 2D instead. I asked ayyzee for a help to draw pixel-art, since he is far better in it than I am. And together we have built something that's working.
Once upon the time there was a group of molecules that was oppressed. And there was another group of molecules next to this one that was also oppressed. Both of them had long established traditions of staying in the group and behaving a certain way. But the oppressed molecules decided to riot. Those on the edge with the other group started mixing together and creating interesting patterns never before seen. Molecules on the far end were confused about all of the movement. Suddenly one or two molecules from the other group traveled to those far regions and were not very welcome by the molecules there. But the mixing continued and patterns became more and more complex, until one time the entire thing was mixed as well as it could be and all molecules were equally spread around.
