Ruckingenur II, Level 7

Continuing the countdown, there are only 8 days left until submissions are due for Phase One of the Ruckingenur Challenge. Y’all best get crackin’.

Yeah, how about that – an entirely hybrid circuit. The exochip on the left is the brain of the drone controller and dispatches commands to the entire drone network. The exochip on the right is responsible for interfacing to the controls and prevents the drone controller from sending any unauthorized commands. After being brought online through the chip on the right, the chip on the left may be instructed to send a self-destruct message to all active drones. Unfortunately, the right chip will not authenticate this command, requiring the player to kill the chip and fake its signal. Upon authentication, the self-destruct command is sent; across the region, drones shut off and come crashing to the ground.

So that’s it – those are the three levels that never made it in to Ruckingenur II. I’m excited to see what you can do!

Does anyone like these sort of posts? Although I don’t have any more Ruckingenur levels to post, I do have more mockups of old games and games that I never made which might be interesting. What would you like to see here between game releases?

    Only one; I’m expecting at least a few more, but I’m not sure how likely it is that we’ll meet the quota. I intend to post on this topic later tonight.
