YIFFØ
JUKAYA began as a prototype project developed by Sean and Alexander in their free time, inspired by the genre classics of the 64-bit era. Much of the core gameplay from this prototype have survived into the finished product.
Shortly after the team began a course in marketing at Kristiania University College, the game saw rapid development between August and September of 2018. The game's visuals and setting were shifted from a sci-fi action game into a Vaporwave tribute, efforts spearheaded by Sivert and Lars. At that point, JUKAYA was intended to include a number of levels and a boss encounter, though development on these features had to take a back seat due to coursework overload.
As time went on, Sivert modified the game into its endless runner design, doing most of the coding and visual design to accommodate this change.
