Beyond Sunset is a vibey retrofuturistic cyberpunk retro-style fps with light rpg elements and a Vangelis-inspired soundtrack. We made it in GZDoom, with love. We hope you have as much fun playing it as we had making it. The full game is available now! https://t.co/sBEjaYKxRx

Current unemployed project: What if I used an LLM to create tens of thousands of ghost applicants to apply for ghost job postings with AI slop resumes? Currently figuring out how to get Chrome extensions to fill Workday fields because they’re not using standard form elements.

We have two future projects planned. One of them is our final ZDoom-based game, which is far less ambitious in scope, which I am confident will more than make up for all of Sunset’s shortcomings. You’ve seen us do cyberpunk, now watch us do steampunk. 3/3

Overall, we had a very difficult development cycle and we are eager to move past this project and onto other projects. A common point of feedback we’ve gotten is that the demo is better than the full game. There is a reason for this, and we hope to talk about it someday. 2/3

Beyond Sunset is not affected by UZDoom fork. We have only one additional major update planned for the game which will include bug fixes, better controller support, native Linux support and some refined game balancing. 1/3

Our next GZDoom game will enable texture filtering by default.

Our next game project will unironically use the Papyrus font. Preview coming soon.

If you’re new to @sunset_city_rpg you might not know that the old engine has a quirk that makes save files unusable after every update. Here is how you can roll back the update on Steam and GOG and keep playing your saves 👉 https://t.co/aQBYT3SJkq

Linux native build, running on Ubuntu. Official Linux support is incoming soon, as well as native Steam Deck support. Thanks for hanging in there guys. #Linux

⚠️Major photosensitivity warning ⚠️ typing "snowcrash" into the console makes cyberspace look like this. 3/3

Purple security programs only move on diagonals. Blue Security programs only move orthogonally . 2/3

Beyond Sunset's cyberspace enemies are blue and purple security programs. The blue programs are a reference to the 1982 Atari arcade game "I Robot", and the purple programs are a reference to the turn-based strategy game 86-HACK. 1/3

The 1972 film "Silent Running" heavily influenced the design of Beyond Sunset, particularly the greenhouse areas and the look of the "Melvin" robots. #indiedev
