Help Finding a Game (lemmy.world)

So some months ago I watched a trailer for an upcoming game that looks pretty neat, but of course I can't remember the name for the life of me. Maybe y'all can help me. I don't think it's been released yet.

It was a FPS maybe with RPG elements set in a cyber-disytopia. The trailer had the player exploring an abandoned gas station in a desert type setting. Armed with a revolver. I think the enemies were some kinda robots. The setting and aesthetics were kinda 80's retrofuture. The player character was driving a very Night Rider kinda car, but it hovered with no wheels.

I've just built a computer that's not a POS laptop and have been searching through steam for fun things to play, that I'd never dreamed of being able to run, when I remembered this one I'd seen that looked interesting.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Did a quick search, looks like ExeKiller, which isn't out yet. Hope you find something good to play in the meantime!

Right or wrong your searchfu has hit something perfectly matching his description.

whoaaa. that looks amazing. I added it to my wishlist. I dont know if that was what op was looking for but I'm certainly glad you linked it!

And here I am blown away by the screenshots and want to wishlist it, only to see I already had it on my wishlist and remember NOTHING about seeing this previously.

@naticus @Nima It's one of those cases of a game shown so far away from its release you eventually forget it even exists

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

Yup that's the one! Thanks.

Lemmy tip: Don't indent your paragraphs.

We're writing in Markdown here, so 4+ spaces at the beginning of a line triggers code formatting. It breaks line wrapping, so many readers are forced into a lot of horizontal scrolling back and forth if they want to read your text. It sometimes also breaks color schemes, burning dark-mode readers' eyes with blocks of bright white.

Back to your request...

Your description reminds me of bits of Cyberpunk 2077 and Overwatch, but I don't think it's either of those. It doesn't exactly match any games I can think of right now. Good luck. :)

Oh word. I was wondering what the fuck was going on. I'll fix it. English major habits die hard lol.

Especially annoying with syntax highlighting.

Didnt know about the 4 indents thing only about the backticks and the three backticks for code block.

but do you know about the 3 shells?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

He doesn't know about the 3 shells

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Are we allowed to tell him?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

3 shells? As in bash and shell?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Zsh

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Hmm, and what about fish?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Only if it is a shellfish

trailers always make a game look good, that's their job. when it's released, if it really is any good, you'll hear about it if you keep an eye out!
