Game Intro:
LunA awakens in a strange lab, unable to remember how she got there or why. She hears
noises coming from the partially open door nearby, and as she approaches, the sounds grow
louder. Carefully opening the door, she finds a hallway in ruins, with broken walls and lights.
The loud noise seems to be coming from the left, and it gets closer and closer, making her
feel more uneasy. Suddenly, it stops, leaving a few seconds of silence. Then, a massive mech
emerges from around the corner, targeting LunA. She doesn’t know what it is, but her
instinct tells her to run, so she does. The mech gives chase, and LunA desperately tries to
escape. And so, the game begins, as the player takes on the challenge of finding a way out
of the lab. Along the way, the reasons for the robot’s pursuit become clear.
Through its immersive gameplay, thought-provoking storyline, and a strong emphasis on
cooperation, "SynthCode: LunA" aims to inspire players to question the nature of humanity,
the role of AI in society, and the importance of understanding and cooperation between the
two.
Since I’m still working on my skills on blender, I attempted to create a 3D model of the mech
that chases LunA at the beginning of the story. There’s also a girl named Sol standing next to
the mech. Eventually, it’s revealed that Sol is the one who has been chasing LunA. As the
story progresses, players learn more about Sol’s background and the important role she
plays.
