Despre acest demo

Move through a maze of defenses as you user your wits and any weapons, programs, and devices you can find to help achieve your mission and complete your hack.  Sneak past guards, drones and cameras, hack the system or just destroy it as you try to complete your goals and escape Shadow Rasa.  This demo contains sample missions, and limited equipment you can use to test your skills and sample what Shadow Rasa has to offer

Random Levels

Randomly generated levels using procedural generation designed to allow multiple solutions to complete your missions.  Levels that are different every time you play so you have to think on your feet and use the environment and tools you find to outwit the system and people that protect it

Equipment Synergy

Weapon, programs, and devices will have synergies when used together.  Find new weapons and programs then use cores from each run to unlock them.  In the demo you will have a limited subset of equipment to start with to get a feel for what the end game will be like.

Shadow Rasa Lore

Shadow Rasa is an alternate dimension scientists discovered that could be accessed easily from anywhere. It was found that while we could observe this dimension and communicate with it using electronics, we could not physically travel there. Limitless processing power was possible due to its unique makeup along with instant communication between any two points in the real world which made it quickly become the home of all computer processing for humankind.

It was also discovered that consciousness could be projected into this world providing a virtual space that was indistinguishable from the real world. At first this space was used for entertainment allowing people to play games and have experiences that felt as real as life. Over time people slowly started spending less and less time in the real world and more and more time in the virtual paradise of Shadow Rasa.

Shadow Rasa History

As centuries past society slowly shifted, Shadow Rasa changed from an escape from reality to a prison for the poor and disenfranchised. Quality experiences still existed for the wealthy and powerful, but most people lived their virtual lives in lower resolution cities, their bodies sustained in large warehouses in the real world.

Officially people are allowed to leave their life sustaining pods but in reality, the cost of living in the real world (even for a day) far exceeded what most make in a month in the virtual world.

Some argued that the world did not have the resources to sustain the entire population if everybody was let out. Others countered that it was just an excuse to keep a slave workforce imprisoned in the virtual world.

Not everyone in Shadow Rasa was eager to leave though, some enjoyed the longer life span granted from time passing by three times slower in the virtual world. Others couldn’t give up the endless gluttony one could indulge in when all you experience (food, drink, and drugs) are just signals to the brain.

Politics aside the end result was the rich enjoying everything the real world had to offer while most the poor had to be forever plugged into Shadow Rasa, living out their low resolution lives.
