Protagonist

An innocent 8-year-old girl is unexpectedly thrust into a situation that accelerates her growth and maturity at a rapid pace. In this utopian world filled with unfolding events, survival becomes not just a challenge but her singular focus on reaching her ultimate destination. As she navigates through this unfamiliar terrain, she must confront daunting obstacles and make difficult choices that will define her journey and shape her destiny in profound ways.

Entities
In this vast universe, myriad characters pursue diverse and often conflicting goals. While some effortlessly soar through the skies, others navigate the intricate labyrinths of the land or delve into the mysteries beneath. Each character possesses a distinct intelligence, fueled by ambitions ranging from gathering vital resources to reshaping the environment, or simply surviving against formidable odds. These beings, whether robotic entities or organic inhabitants, intertwine their fates across disparate realms, shaping the fabric of their world through intricate interactions and profound choices.

There exist robots specialized in discovering natural treasures through diverse methods in expansive environments. These robots operate autonomously but can be remotely controlled from centralized command bases. They are singularly dedicated to their missions,

employing sophisticated sensors and exploration techniques to uncover valuable resources or artifacts. Their autonomy allows them to navigate rugged terrains and remote locations independently, while their remote command capability ensures oversight and strategic direction from afar.

This specialized autonomy enables them to conduct intricate searches and assessments, contributing to the exploration and exploitation of natural resources across vast and
challenging landscapes.

Another category of patrol robots operates within city streets and enclosed environments, dedicated to upholding law and order.

These robots are programmed to respond swiftly to any directives received from senior command levels. Equipped with advanced surveillance and detection capabilities, they monitor urban areas for signs of unrest or criminal activity. In addition to maintaining a visible presence to deter potential threats, they are capable of executing predefined protocols and engaging in tactical maneuvers as dictated by real-time situational assessments.

Their integration into urban security systems enhances overall public safety by ensuring rapid and effective responses to emergent situations.

A third category of aerial operatives is strategically positioned across both open and enclosed environments.

Their primary mission encompasses maintaining societal order and providing crucial support to lower-ranking patrol officers and soldiers. These operatives are equipped to swiftly respond to disturbances, enforce regulations, and safeguard strategic locations, ensuring the stability and security of their assigned areas.

Their role involves not only surveillance and reconnaissance but also immediate intervention during critical situations, contributing significantly to the overall defense and operational effectiveness of their operational zones.

The Planet

Diverse ecosystems populate these regions, ranging from thriving to barren landscapes. Human settlements are predominantly found in constructed zones—small or large cities—some deserted, others ravaged by endless conflicts between militias and indigenous life forms.

A planet discovered millions of light-years away in our known galaxy is governed by an autonomous coalition of robots, anomalous creatures, and stranded humans who now survive out of necessity. The planet boasts a vast expanse, gravity akin to ours, and sustains an oxygen-rich atmosphere, though its weather conditions fluctuate unpredictably during the night. Across its surface lie numerous continents: some scavenged and others hidden from plain sight.

Many of these landmasses are interconnected by advanced

transportation systems, facilitating movement across the planet.

Transportation
Fast travel on the planet is facilitated by a network of interconnected metro paths, portal rifts, and various types of vehicles. The metro system spans across key locations, providing rapid transit for inhabitants and travelers alike.

Portal rifts act as instantaneous gateways between distant points on the planet, enabling swift transportation across vast distances. Additionally, a diverse array of vehicles—from hovercrafts to advanced aerial crafts—are utilized for expeditions and transportation needs across different terrains and environments. These interconnected systems ensure efficient and versatile mobility across the planet’s varied landscapes.

Early Build

Ratio

The concept was initially designed to be expansive in scope, offering a broad range of perspectives. However, after several attempts, the style somewhat narrowed to convey a sense of contrast against a small protagonist. Translating this vastness onto a regular or mobile screen proved challenging, leading to some aspects of the idea being shelved. Nonetheless, many areas still appear vast and sprawling, creating the illusion of enormity. Players can explore these expansive regions over extended periods of time, providing a sense of grandeur and depth within
the game world.

Monochrom

The game was originally designed in monochrome with a black and white color palette, playing with shadows, and numerous attempts were made to create a melancholic and dark atmosphere. Over time, this concept evolved to become more colorful but still retained the same single-color style with a wide range of shades. Each area received its own hue, aiming to evoke a feeling that the player would want to revisit and explore again.

Audio

The developer strongly believes in synthesized sound and audio, which enriches a cohesive harmony and unique atmosphere to evoke a wide range of emotions during gameplay. Each area contains unique weather sounds, layers of soothing music, and sound effects that blend seamlessly together, creating a unified experience.
