VEILBREAK
A cyberpunk extraction FPS built around dual-reality veil shifting, squad roles, and yokai threats.
The Pitch
VEILBREAK is a Japanese cyberpunk co-op extraction FPS where squads shift between realities to survive missions, fight yokai enemies, and capitalize on high-risk opportunities. It blends class identity, tactical co-op play, and stylized sci-fi horror presentation.
What I Built
Dual-reality veil-shift core mechanic
Four weapon archetypes and four class identities
Seven yokai enemy behaviors designed for layered encounters
Mission-based extraction loop built for replayability
Shader-driven visual direction in Godot 4.4
Co-op combat pacing focused on role synergy and high-pressure escapes
The Story
The Beginning
VEILBREAK is the current big-scope action project in the studio pipeline, built to explore how co-op extraction design can feel more supernatural, stylish, and system-rich.
The Journey
Development is centered on building a strong playable vertical slice: movement, combat feel, role definition, AI threat variety, and the signature veil-shift identity. The project is aimed at delivering a more ambitious commercial-scale experience than earlier prototypes.
Where It Stands
It stands as JugPanda Studios’ flagship in-development action game and a major step up in scope, presentation, and systems design.
