About Jolt

How it came to be

What is Jolt about? Well, two years ago, fresh off of watching Breaking Bad, when I witnessed the way Jesse Pinkman's addiction led him astray, a thought came into my mind:

A superhero-ish story, but the protagonist starts off as a villain sidekick, is an addict, and he has electric powers that are inspired by the "logia devil fruits" from One Piece?

As bonus, Orpheas (yes, written with an "a", since it's how we write his name in Greek lol), came out with a Pickahu-like hair, which I thought was hillarious.

Later, my friend Giorgos "the Artist", joined my attempt to bring this character to game-life, and drew a badass concept art, that unfortunately would not translate well into the game itself, since we decided that we don't have the man-power to make as detailed of an artstyle, and certainly couldn't afford to make a 3D-game, since it'd require resources WAY beyond what we were capable of at that time.
