Hello, Cyberpunk Fans! 👾

We’re excited to officially announce the development of Blade Runner - Generation One, a third-person action-adventure game that delves deep into the dystopian world of cyberpunk, AI, and the psychological struggle of bio-engineered beings. Our development team has been working hard to bring this vision to life, and we want to share some early insights and updates with you!

What is Blade Runner - Generation One?

In a world dominated by megacorporations and advanced technology, the Tyrell Corporation has created the Nexus series—bio-engineered humans known as "replicants" designed to serve humanity. You will play as Nexus 1, the first generation of replicants whose mission is to uphold law and order. But there’s a deeper, more personal journey—your very existence as a replicant is questioned. What does it mean to be human in a world where you’re created for a purpose? This psychological thriller explores the blurred line between machine and human.

What’s New: Progress & Features 🚀

We’ve made some great strides in the early stages of development and wanted to share some key updates with you:

1. Core Mechanics Prototyping:

Shooter & Combat Mechanics: We’ve been working on creating fluid, third-person shooting mechanics that will blend fast-paced action with strategic decision-making.
Puzzle Design: The game will feature interactive puzzles that challenge your intellect as much as your combat skills.
Platforming Elements: We’re experimenting with a unique blend of action-platforming to create dynamic environments where exploration is key.

2. Story Development:

The story centers around your role as Nexus 1, tasked with police duties while navigating ethical dilemmas. Should you follow orders or question your existence? This choice will affect the game’s narrative and your interactions with other characters.

3. World Building:

We’re focusing on creating a richly detailed, neon-lit cyberpunk world filled with towering skyscrapers, grimy streets, and dark alleyways that hide secrets. Our goal is to immerse you in a world that feels alive—where every NPC, billboard, and rain-soaked street adds to the atmosphere.

What’s Coming Next? 🔮

Character Design Updates: We’ll soon share concept art of Nexus 1 and other key characters.
Level Design & Environments: Expect a sneak peek into the design of the cityscape, with a focus on blending futuristic tech with gritty realism.
AI & Enemy Design: We're working on AI behavior that will challenge players, not just in combat, but also in problem-solving.
