"RealMe" is a game crafted during Bogazici Game Jam 23, completed in a mere 48 hours. The theme "Just in the nick of time" inspired us to reimagine the classic Pac-Man universe. In our rendition, players strategically control characters—digitally scanned versions of ourselves—tasked with defeating Pac-Man before it devours all the dots on the game board.

To bring our vision to life, we experimented with a cutting-edge tool called Luma.ai. This app utilizes AI to streamline photogrammetry processes, allowing us to seamlessly incorporate scanned objects, including our own bodies, into the game world. The result is a mixed-media aesthetic that we believe holds significant market potential, showcasing a potential shift in future game development.

The theme "ucu ucuna," meaning 'just in the nick of time,' inspired us to leverage the tension and excitement inherent in the Pac-Man experience. We adapted the mechanics, transforming the game into a time-based beat-em-up. Players must strategically maneuver and coordinate their digital selves to catch and beat up Pac-Man, creating moments that embody the essence of 'just in the nick of time.'
