It is several years into the future. Technology has advanced, bringing with it several enhancements to the human body: robot prosthetics and nanotechnology have given people the power to perform better, be superior and live longer. Obviously, this comes at a price – a high one – increasing the gap between the rich and the poor. The less fortunate were banished to the lower levels of the city, with the prosperous living the high life in the upper districts. You receive word that a riot has started in the lower districts. The poor want something, again, and you know the rioters are going to use all means possible to achieve it. Hopefully, you can lead the rioters through their demonstration without it getting out of hand. It would be very unfortunate if you had to use lethal force…
This is the Unity prototype we started out with. We were testing our core game mechanic early, while still working on the game engine, so that we could determine whether we thought it would work as intended or not. The early tests were encouraging and thus we implemented the technique in the engine.
NOTE: Although the video may be perceived laggy on some systems, this is not the case with the actual prototype - it is a video export problem we seem to not be able to correct.
