As you progress, you get better and better. Ending should be brutal/bittersweet. The player gets knocked down to the "under city", the older city that's been built over. The first layers are a combination of older/garbage tech, scrapped together from trash and leftovers. As you get higher, the tech/quality improves. #### Opposition Government # Aesthetic ## Prior Discussion > Iso

The artstyle would be pretty much Cloudpunk/Transistor with our own twists
