A downloadable game

  • A Skills and A.G.N.I.S. (Allure, Grit, Nerd, Intuition, Strength) system. Place objects in the world to reach places or climb over fences, creating your own path.
  • Dialogue system that uses the stats of your character for special dialogue choices, so everything contributes to dialogue. Locked door? Hack it. Or lockpick it. Destroy it. Or alternatively, seduce or convince a guard to open it for you
  • Physically-based characters so you can throw pipes at the legs, arms or head and they will react as they should. Pick up a chair, throw it, swing it or kick it onto someone.
  • Faction reputation system. Branching dialogues offer choice and consequence so players have different experiences
  • Personal reputation in the form of 3 traits - Insight, Rapacity and Reciprocity. Almost every action you do will contribute to one of these 3 traits, unlocking new dialogue choices and reactions.

Almost a century ago, Humanity left Earth for a new planet due to catastrophic events rendering it unlivable to humans. A previously unknown planet was found accidentally as it put itself in collision course with the Earth's ships. With nowhere to go, we settled here.

A new city was built on this planet that was named shortly-after, "CORPUS EDAX". New rules and laws were created. Over the years its newly formed World Government struggled to lead a unified planet - any form of cultural identity expression from former countries was prohibited and made illegal. Citizens are graded from A to D based on their aptitude and contribution towards the government, and if you fall below Grade-D... well, you'll have to find this out by yourself.

After waking up from a medically-induced coma, you find yourself inside a newly built city called Corpus Edax. In one way or another, you'll get entangled in the fight for justice with The Salvation, as they see it, or in the fight for supremacy as you act as a double-spy for the World Government Security Forces. Help shape the future of Corpus Edax, for a better tomorrow for your fellow citizens (or not, your choice).

Expected release date is Q4 2023

PS: In the download section, there's a build of the game from September 2022. I figured it would be fun to see how the game evolved in such a short time. It's more broken and janky than ever, so don't download it unless you're curious to see how it evolved.
