I remember watching District 9 for the first time with my friends back in highschool, and was fascinated with the world that was portrayed. I was so happy to see a somewhat extension of this universe through Elysium and Chappie, and loved the very distopian and gritty versions of the cyberpunk vibes. I was later introduced to other media in the same vein, Akira, Ghost in a Shell, you know.
But I always was kinda bummed at how bleak these versions of the future looked, and I wanted something with a little more optimism aesthetically, but still with a gritty crime story. So Ive decided to make my own media, a game, that is just that.
I just wanted to share my first dev log about it — really its just the gameplay references for it in this video, and in my next I will go into the visuals, art directions and other references for how it will look — just wanted to post this here for anyone interested in the devlog community and enjoy cyberpunk style media.
