Om dette spil

THE BIORIFT is a 2.5D action-shooter with Metroidvania elements and episodic storytelling — set in a collapsing biopunk megacity warped by biotech, cults, and corporate war.

Each level is a self-contained chapter with unique art, gameplay mechanics, enemies, and story beats. One moment you’re dodging pulse drones in a ruined subway, the next — navigating dimension rifts inside a mutated lab.

Core Features

• Anime-style combat: fast-paced action, biomechanical weapons, parries, gadgets, and combos

• Exploration-driven progression: backtracking, secret paths, and layered level layouts

• Episodic chapters: every level is a new visual and gameplay experience

• Biopunk lore: uncover conspiracies, survivor logs, and dimension anomalies

• Hand-drawn + 3D hybrid visuals, inspired by Akira, Ghost in the Shell, and brutalist post-Soviet architecture

• Atmospheric soundtrack: a gritty blend of electronics, analog synths, and ethnic instrumentation

The World

After a biotech disaster, the city of RIFT became a distorted graveyard of collapsed labs, militarized sectors, and cult strongholds.

You play as a student who accidentally merged with a prototype weapon.

Now you’re the only thing standing between the city and total collapse.

This world is beautiful, broken — and constantly trying to kill you.

Inspired by the Golden Age of 1990s Hollywood

we’re driven by a deep love for the 1990s Hollywood era—the golden age of storytelling and the explosive rise of sci-fi fantasy. THE BIORIFT draws inspiration from the bold, gritty narratives of films like Blade Runner, The Matrix, and Total Recall, where dystopian worlds, rogue technologies, and human resilience collided in unforgettable ways. We’re channeling the raw energy of 1990s cyberpunk culture, infused with the vibrant, larger-than-life spirit of that decade’s iconic sci-fi works. Every frame of THE BIORIFT is a tribute to the era that redefined speculative fiction, crafted with the same passion that made those stories timeless.

Meddelelse om AI-genereret indhold

Udviklerne beskriver spillets brug af AI-genereret indhold sådan her:

We intentionally use generative artificial intelligence to conceptualize unique architectural models and details of the new district, details of the environment. And to get new original and author's ideas. This will allow us to finish the project on time and not let people down. However, every detail is carefully redrawn by the hands of artists and 3D modelers. graphic artists-people to ensure compliance with the aesthetics and visual identity of the game. Also, people do painstaking technical work with raw materials from AI.

Beskrivelse af voksenindhold

Udviklerne beskriver indholdet således:

The game contains elements of violence: intense shootouts, destruction of robots and monsters with visual effects of blood (without excessive cruelty). The plot touches on themes of resistance to oppression and saving people from captivity, but there are no scenes of a sexual nature, drugs or self-harm. Some dialogues and environments (for example, neon bars, propaganda posters) may contain hints at the dark social problems of the metropolis, but everything is presented through the prism of cyberpunk aesthetics, without direct demonstration.

The game is suitable for players from 16 years old.
