IT'S HAPPENING

Complete end-to-end prototype is working!

Giant alligators in sewer! Psychotronic reality and a mind chip programmed by satellites!

5G zombie apocalypse and the city burns! WHO CAN SAVE US NOW?

ONLY THE CHOSEN ONE ...

What kind of RPG is this? Turn-based first person, FPS style ala Deus Ex and Bloodlines?

Did Cleve ever manage to build that bunker he was always dreaming about? A global pandemic would be a good time to have one. Of course he would have to make so biological agents and other nasty thing wouldn't be able to get in through the plumbing or water supply...

That dude in the mirror looks like he has feminine hips. Are you making 'SIMS: Transition Edition' ??

You're right. He was a placeholder until I could get the look right for The Dork Knight.

(... and yes, he will have a mylar foil cape he can flash at opponents to temporarily stun them ... worked on it last night, a few glitches but dynamic cape flutters in real time)

Also ...

1. Inventory working
2. Dialogues working
3. Game logic working (Sneak past police cordon of 5g zombie riot by getting drunk and staggering past like wino)
4. Many complex cutscenes working
5. Enemy and friend behaviors work
6. Shooter and melee logic underway, including custom weapons like crack pipe taped to frisbee that you throw like a batarang ...

... desperate to put fanny pack on him as utility belt but still looking for right kind of bag.

Looked for right soundtrack for months, finally licensed this album and it's perfect score for the game ... retro synth but similar to ARKHAM CITY music ... ambient tracks are great, too ...

Wait so what is this gonna be? Is it gonna be like deus ex? Or you gonna invent a new genre?
Also, are you making an engine from scratch by yourself or you using an existing one?

It's about a mentally ill homeless man who lives in a condemned bathroom outside a Chinese takeaway becoming the greatest superhero of them all in a single night.

This man has a delusional talking rabbit friend as his ally and a 1957 Bell Systems AI Satellite called "Aunty Em" (A.E.M. Advanced Electromagnetic Monitor) who summons him with his CIA mind control chip on the night the 5G network is activated on a secret frequency that awakens the covertlly injected vaccine agents that turn the population into rabid, bloodthirsty self-mutilating killers.

As the elites plot their escape from this experimental pilot, the hero has to fight Cabal death squads, the 5G lunatics, giant alligators in the sewers and psychotronic antimatter creatures from other dimensions using the powers of his imaginary friend.

That's the premise.

P.S. In many ways it draws from ARKHAM CITY, including some similar skill trees and experience power ups.

P.P.S. A sample track currently used for the stealth/takedown game cycle ...
