Fallout fans gather around ! InSomnia - An RPG Set in a Brutal Dieselpunk Universe

Hi people, there are and will be very few games, which are gonna be in a close line to Sui Generis, if not totally; but partly. And here is what I’m talking about, InSomnia a game that will interest hardcore rpg fanatics that’s set in brooding dark atmosphere; a dystopean, post-apocalyptic dieselpunk RPG. ‘Mono’ is currently a 6 man team.

• InSomnia is an old-school, Fallout-inspired RPG, but with some important twists;
• Classless, leveless RPG system, allowing both complexity, reach and flexibility in both character creation and development;
• Dynamic combat, assisted by our random events generator, will frequently put you in a bind - but in a fun way!
• Sci-fi setting. A lone ark spaceship, feelings of confusion, loss, isolation. It traveled for so long, that its inhabitants lost their hope — and even their humanity
• Randomly generated content done right. We use mix of hand-crafted and randomly generated content, to ensure that our game would have both varied gameplay and strong storyline;
• Our game will have co-op mode, like Divinity: Original Sin, with some hand-tailored content for it, though it’s not our main priority, but not just a gimmick, either;
• Music — dark ambient, inspired by Mark Morgan’s works (both Fallouts and PST), but with its own sound and flavor.
• Unique atmosphere, blending both sci-fi and dystopian elements.

I’m cutting it short, let the game speaks for itself;

Meh. Doesn’t look good to me. I’ll pass and just wait for Fallout 4.

Pledged 15€. Might have some potential I think, but despite the epic looking kickstarter page we don’t know enough about the game itself to be sure.

Good to see at least one person being interested ! You can track updates untill ks is funded successfuly from campaign page, then official forums will be available which Mono will be glad hearing suggestions, feedbacks etc.

Update !
# 12. ‘You asked, we listened’

Female playable character stretch goal deleted, and will be inside the vanilla ! And console possibility confirmed which developers mention boldly that pc version will always be in top priority and this will not influence the quality of outcome of the game by any means !

Looks pretty cool. I’m perplexed that nothing more came from the success of Arcanum (very few REAL steampunk games) so maybe a dieselpunk setting will take off.

I pledge too, the game go to run under Unreal engine. now i must be patient.
