Cloudpunk is a good game for people who don’t want to stress out while playing a video game. This is a very low-stakes mellow gameplay. You’re given the freedom to fly all over the city at your own pace. Plus you can get out of your taxi and walk around all you want. But this isn’t like Crazy Taxi where you’re just constantly collecting fares, there is a plot.

If you don’t know the word voxel, it’s a “pixel” with “volume”. So while a pixel is a square, a voxel is a cube. The voxel art-style is more apparent when you get out of your taxi and walk around:

Here’s a trailer. You can get it on Steam, GOG, Switch, Xbox, Playstation, anywhere you want.

Also, the developers are working on another game in this universe called Nivalis. It’s supposed to be more of a life-sim where you own a noodle stand rather than driving a taxi. Here’s a trailer for that one.

What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Cyberpunk characteristics include:

  • Dystopian city setting where mega-corporations rule
  • Full integration of technology into society, featuring cybernetic implants
  • Outsider protagonists (punks) who often are very familiar with the technology around them
  • Hard boiled detective and film noir vibes and influence
  • Themes dabbling in trans-humanism, existentialism, and what it means to be human.
