Bionic Recur Unit (Bionicle Fan Game)
A downloadable game for Windows
For now, it is but an Toa character editor, but it might be much more...
Mainly inspired by Christian Faber's prototype art in order to design the visual identity of Bionicle.
BRU anchor itself in a non-canon universe, where there is only Toa of 4 different elements, and the Kanohi Vahi has been shattered, leaving you to piece it up with the help of the wandering Toa.

had to create an account to drop in and tell you how fantastic all of this looks and feels, it scratches that early bionicle itch perfectly. love the sound design for the exploration and workshop in particular and the dedication to including very deep cuts such as the slizer hand shoulders and torsos for the character builder
This is an Awesome RPG project! Is there going to be Linux Versions? Will the Final Product [The Full RPG Experince] be on Steam? Let me know in a Reply! Thanks,

Hello. First I thank you for the interest you show to the project. A Linux Version was indeed requested, so it would be nice if I managed to pull it out. But I tend to focus first on prototypes/demos for Windows for the larger audience, so sorry if there might be an oversight.
There are plans to put it on Steam, but unless it's ready to the point of being a Demo, most of the content will first stay on itch.io. But yeah, it being on Steam has a lot of advantages for me and for players.
The full rpg experience is a big project and will take a lot of steps to be a full fledged game, so please carry on for the wait.
this game aint rng at all REMOVE THE FREAKING RNG TAG FROM IT
I love the workshop editor, it's extremely smooth.
Would it be possible to make a more canon-accurate version with 6 elements selection? That would be really nice. Maybe as an option in settings (choose between bionicle elements / BRU elements)?
Also, do you plan to add nuva armor, feet extensions and other mata-build mods in future updates?
Exceptionally good job with capturing early '01 / concept era aesthetics, can't wait for more stuff!
Absolutely beautiful. This perfectly captures the look and feel of 2001 Bionicle.
could you possibly make it compatible with Mac?
Sorry, but I am not able to update the Exploration game anymore, so I can't... For any new applications I'll look into porting it to Mac and Linux
For whatever reason I couldn't make it past the title screen. The Play option didn't seem responsive :( Seems cool th
Thanks for signaling. That is weird since several people including myself have tested this version have no trouble using the play option. But I know Unity doesn't get any input if you alt-tab away, or select another active window. Have you by any chance multiple screens ? Because that might be the cause. If the problem persist I'll check it up.
