Story, heroine and premise
Many years after a global cataclysm, most of the land is toxic, but big cities still thrive under the rule of the mighty META technocracy.
There are actually two heroines and two story lines, both occurring in the same world and converging at some point.
- An amnesiac (and nameless) Konoko wakes up at the bottom of a destroyed air-processing facility. Making her way through the air duct to the outskirts of a nearby city, she is mistaken for a refugee and joins the libertarian movement known as Phoenix. Her missions bring her in direct confrontation with META, up to the point where her past and "true nature" are revealed.
- A gynoid named Hikari, developed as a prototype by the utopian technocracy META, escapes the control of its makers. A mysterious artificial intelligence (Shinatama, unnamed) acts as a guide for Hikari, whereas Hikari acts as the AI's avatar in the physical world. Their quest is to uncover the truth behind the Cataclys, find Konoko's whereabouts, and META's dark secrets.
How-tos
Characters
There are several categories here:
- inspiring characters from existing games (which we should be careful not to imitate/borrow too closely);
- free or cheap character assets that we might want to use, with minimal modeling/texturing work involved;
- influential 2D concepts which we might want to turn into 3D models, after asking the artist it it's OK;
- our own concepts/developments
Existing game characters
- Shelly (main character from the game Bombshell)
More or less game-ready character assets
- "Chigaru" - a good post-apoc character from an ArtStation challenge (free)
- The winner of that same "Beyond Human" contest - rings a helluva lotta bells.
- A "Worker Robot" (also available on UE4 Marketplace with custom colors)
- A similar but more post-apocalyptical model by the same author
- A heavy hazard suit in a simple style similar to Oni
- Another heavy suit by a different author (less interesting)
