Beta Testing Opt-ins!

Buckle up! You can now opt into the free public playtest of Neo Junk City. We've started testing to get the demo ready for NextFest in February. And, this pool will be the one we use for testing the rest of the game post-February.

You can opt-in right below the wishlist button.

Testers are selected randomly in batches. For now I'm doing small batches to test the system. But in the future I may open it all at once.

Wanted to share a major milestone! I had set a goal to hit 15k wishlist, which we did! it moved so fast we hit 16k before I got to make a post about it! Super thrilled, as even my last game did not reach this many wishlist at any point in its entire production. I hadn't checked it in a while so finding out it had jumped so high was a shock to the system.

Now to move the goalpost, next goal is 20k! I want to be buried under the weight of too much expectation. Really grind me to dust knowing how many people are waiting to finally play my silly cyberpunk game about goofballs.

Neo Junk City is a cyberpunk adventure game that puts a unique spin on the point-and-click genre. Inspired by titles like King's Quest. Venture into the dark and mysterious realms of the Drowned City as Buster 09, a law enforcement android trying to solve a peculiar case. The catch? She's the murderer. As this killer robot with a wiped memory, you must unravel the mystery of why you committed the crime.

Neo Junk City Final 48 Hours!

Last call! Neo Junk City is now in it's final 48 hours! And needs your support~!

Neo Junk City has 48 hours left to hit its funding. And we're currently sitting at 54k out of 60k! Much like Nefarious was back in 2014, this one is gonna be a nail biter! That means we need everyone on deck. Every little bit makes a huge difference as we inch ever closer to the 60k goal. 

NES Shoot Outs

One of our ways of handling battles and boss fights, is adding some light rpg hybrid elements with an action-based shoot out. Taking cues from classics like Wild Gunmen, and using NES style restricted color palettes to contrast this mode from the overworld areas.

But we also seek to update the formula with modern elements. Letting the player shoot incoming bullets out of the air, giving Buster an auto-charging blast. We're gonna see how much we can push these encounters. 

I hope you'll join me on another game dev journey. You can get your OC in the game, you can cameo in the main plotline, get a physical box of goods, or get your name in an in-game monument for those who went above and beyond in getting this project funded. Whatever you choose, you have 48 hours left to make a choice! click here to be taken to the Neo Junk City Kickstarter!

Or Wishlist us on steam!

Thank you,
