Retro Synthesis Early Access

About Retro Synthesis is a tech-noir narrative game about being torn apart between obligations and conscience. After suffering a tragedy, Harrison Noels, an experienced police detective, is forced to get over his hardships and take another case. The investigation leads him to the worst corners of New Venice – a retro-future, dystopian metropolis built above the surface of the sea.

Features 

• Deep and mature story – During the investigation, main character will learn more about himself and will reveal his past. The case is also more complex than anyone thought. 
• Recognizable art style – Our game reminds 80s cyberpunk classic manga and american comics. You can find many inspiration in Retro Synthesis’ art style, but you need to admire it is still unique. 
• Mood based dialogue system – Dialogue system, where player choose his attitude towards disputant instead of text lines. • Retro-future, dystopian lore – Explore different places to discover New Venice’s secrets, feel its atmosphere, talk to other citizens. Not only you will affect the world, but the world will affect you as well.
• Immersive puzzles – Puzzles that are part of the story and bring players best game experience.

You may start seeing more news, reviews, images, and videos online this coming weekend. We will be lifting the veil of secrecy then, allowing the media as well as our friends in the senior volunteer tester group to openly start showing their footage from the DLC. We will also keep on working on the launch-day video trailer to make a yet bigger splash at the release.

Bridges of Oregon

Let us bridge the time until the release of ATS Oregon DLC by a post showing some of the bridges featured in the map expansion. Thanks to a plentiful amount of rivers in Oregon, our DLC will also contain a considerable number of bridges. We've just shown some major bridges while introducing Portland, but there are way more of them scattered around the state!

Bridges are landmark objects in the game that are experienced really up close, whenever the player's truck is crossing them. We need to provide a lot of detail, they are not a cheap 3D asset to build quickly. As each bridge structure and the terrain configuration around it is unique, bridges ask for solid planning and coordination across our teams.

We can see the light at the end of the.. bridge. October is getting closer, as is Oregon!
