Take on the role of Karl Carbon, an ex-cop turned social worker charged with helping needy humans, hybrids and sentient machines AKA 'Silicanths'. Dishonorably discharged from the Coastlandia Police Department for disobeying an order to shoot an unarmed alter-human, Karl has been helping the poor and downtroddent get back on their feet at the Department of Sentient Services. Till one day a case goes horrible sideways and and Karl is drawn into a sordid conspiracy that could threaten the very fabric of Human-Robot-Hybrid civilization.
An unemployed disaster-response robot waits in line for welfare, battery-stamps, and Section 8.
Trying to make the robot's tentacles appear as though they consist of a piezoelectric polymer (or some sort of artificial muscle failing that). He's supposed to be kind of an all-terrain post-earthquake rescue machine, fully automated and sentient.
And yes, he is allusive to the Matrix intentionally :)
Technobabylon ,Alum,among others ,so many cool point 'n' clicks coming out now.
Neofeud looks like it will be top of the list when it's ready.
Thanks for the high praise, man! Hope we can live up to it. :)
