If You're Able To Say Without Causing Yourself Problems, What's Your Game About? What's The Pitch?

If you're able to say without causing yourself problems, what's your game about? What's the pitch?

Hello! The basic idea is a sci-fi multiplayer heist, with an absolute pile of interesting abilities, and a focus on planning and improvisation over having big numbers. I’m focusing on building things to be as flexible, dynamic, and weird as possible, so players can bend the system to get interesting results.

Can’t disable an eye? Rewire it so it can’t lock the door!

Can’t avoid or destroy some turrets? Teleport between them and then back again to get them to shoot each other!

Can’t open a door? Activate the alarms, and skip past the defense drones as they pour through it!

Of course, very little of this is actually created so far, and nothing here should be read as a promise, but personally I’m feeling really good about things. I’m aiming to have a publicly playable version in a few months, and ideally I’ll keep developing and updating it for a couple of years.

It’s 4am, my pump up song is on loop, and I’m tearing increasingly intricate space stations apart with a debug gun and watching them collapse with increasing accuracy. Every hour makes things a bit more beautiful, and a bit more sophisticated.

And tomorrow, I don’t even need to get up early.

(And yes, I take time off and take care of myself, don’t worry. I’m just a night owl.)
