As the title says, I thought it might be cool to make a series on my blog or something following development, or not, knowing me, since I will either be hyperfocused or not focussed at all. There is no middle ground.
Anyway, the baseline for the game will be that the player will control an exploration drone deployed by the ATIS ETF (Earthway Task Force) and the player is a new drone operator just given the job of investigating districts in the Earthway Sector. The narrative will be in parallel to the Ruins of Eridonia plot line, and take place around the same time as it (subject to change of course). I want to implement an RPG-style upgrade system where the drone can be customised and modified for different tasks.
Each "level" will be semi-open world (think Metro Exodus) and have a lot of areas and secrets to uncover alongside the main objective (which will be in line with the lore, such as recovering and documenting databanks, objects of interest to ATIS etc, hidden within the Ruins before that sector is due to be Recycled (more on that later in lore).
Anyway. I better get started.
More to come. Maybe.
