addedWelcome to the second dev diary of Cyjin: The Cyborg Ninja ! We’re glad you’re here one more time to discover new things about our mouse-based precision platformer. And today, we’re showing you the Urbanscape , a level that takes place in the futuristic residential area of the oriental city where Cyjin and his enemies live.
changedThis area is placed on the outskirts of the city center. Cyjin will fight his way on the buildings of oriental houses. The area is composed of many types of residential districts. One of them is a canal area, which is guarded by buildings and cherry blossom trees. These trees have no leaves but weird holo-sheets and long pink cables. Also, you will find out that savage crows love sitting on their right-angled branches. Nature can be a bit strange in future societies!
addedMost of the mechanics we introduced in this level are focused on a specific type of gameplay. We want players to move as fast as possible , and one of the elements we present here to achieve it is the Reflector Wall : when dashing to it, Cyjin will bounce in the opposite direction. It’s a surface that helps players pick up more momentum and reach higher map areas. A unique bouncing action especially made for the Urbanscape.
changedAside from the Reflector Wall, you’ll also find something called Cooldown Laser Wall . The laser wall will be active for a limited time, so players must find a way to go through these obstacles before they start working again.
changedBut these are not the only surprises that await you in this level. Here, Cyjin will meet his rival again — but this time, there will be something different in him. Kyōjin will challenge the cyborg ninja with powerful abilities to show him how strong he is becoming. If you want to defeat him this time, put in practice everything you learned about the Reflector Wall.
changedAnd this is all about the Urbanscape! Stay tuned for future updates. We are working as hard as we can for our Kickstarter campaign . Follow us and keep posted on its launch date.

This is how it looks now!

This area is placed on the outskirts of the city center. Cyjin will fight his way on the buildings of oriental houses. The area is composed of many types of residential districts.
