Christopher:My name is Christopher Rogers, and I am the Creative Director at Harebrained Schemes.

Throughout the game you are becoming something else, both inside and out.

The story goes that the Athenians displayed the heros ship as a way to remember his adventures.

As time wore on pieces of the ship were replaced, until nothing of the original remained.

At that point is it still the Ship of Theseus?

We v wantto put that in front of the player as they are trying to survive.

Christopher:Sure!

The game takes place on a continent sized space station called the Arc.

The facility uses the same grafting technology to construct itself, but at a much bigger scale.

The Arc is dying, and vast sections of it have lost power and life support.

City sized chunks are tearing away and then grafting themselves back on to the main structure in new places.

As that happens, spaces stop making rational sense.

Those techno-catacombs were once fields of pods where new bodies could be grown for dying people on the Arc.

Thats what we mean by post-cyberpunkyoure a cyberpunk character thrust out of a dystopia and into something much stranger.

As you defeat enemies youll be able to graft their limbs and their abilities onto yourself.

Grafting has a narrative impact as well.

You may also need to hold back new impulses that your grafts have imbued you with.

Christopher:Embrace change.

You wont be powerful enough to survive the Arc until you start remaking yourself through grafts.

Hold off on sharing the specifics, but HOW OLD were you when that thing happened?

Christopher:Were a small indie dev and there are a lot of games out there.
