You're blue collar John Wick and a factory just killed your pigeon.
Utopium
SteamUtopium is a top-down brawler set in a drug-addled industrial dystopia. The Factory has consumed the earth and - what's worse - it has killed a pigeon. Avenge him. Refuse your soma, smash your way to the factory's CEO and end his heartless rule.
Hotline Miami meets billiards: smack the souls out of your enemies with the spirit hammer. Ricochet these souls through the factory and then possess them to appear behind your enemies. Combine soul-ricochet with parries, throws and a grapple-hook hammer, and combat becomes a puzzle you solve at speed.
Enter the spirit world between levels, hear how its denizens responded to the Factory's iron fist and concrete boot. Shape the uprising by aligning with one of three spirit guides and use their unique boons:
Three completely different ways to play, not just stat tweaks.
The Factory has been here longer than anyone can remember. The workers don't ask questions - why would they, when they've got soma? The dead don't realise they've died, so they keep clocking in. And somewhere in the Factory's rusted bowels, a giant's eye flicks open...
Suddenly, the soma stops working. You notice things - the pigeon at your feet, the banned literature hidden behind lockers, the ghosts who've been trying to talk to you for years.
Take it all in, or batter your way past it. Utopium's storytelling is light-touch by design - skip every word and you're playing a brawler, read it all and you're getting a primer on the philosophy of industrialisation.
Fully voice acted - UK regional cast, northern humour. Soundtrack by Stringer: techno, dub, breakbeats to smash the looms to.
Play the focused campaign that you can finish in a weekend, then enter the flow state in the survival mode. Endless waves, new lore between runs. Stick a podcast on (we won't be offended).
