Deadmau5 x Core Collab Jam — Best Dystopian Worlds
The deadline was from July 15 - to July 26.
Placed second in the Dystopian genre winning a cash prize!
The Collab Jam had a tight deadline, and I had a couple of wild ideas in mind that could make this submission very interesting! I wanted to create something monumental in a dystopian world, I was also inspired by the live events from Fortnite and the UGC Metaverses. Within the deadline, I was able to create a full environment and animate a short video that gets displayed on the digital screen in the mouse head. The video is broken down into a full-video image sequence and then each pixel's color (per image) is encoded into the screen in a linear order using a custom vertex order that is created in a third party application. The entire video is read from a CVS file.

For this Collab Jam there were four categories:
War-Torn
Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi
Abandoned Stages
Dystopian
Special thanks to Drake Rose on Team META for collaborating with me on this jam! Without his programming/scripting expertise, the screen functionality and light show event wouldn't have been possible!
The virtual screen in the mouth is not currently functioning due to an update to the editor which corrupted the .pbt file. Here is a link to what the virtual screen would've looked like.
