Neopunk

Neopunk is a retro-style 2D game set in the neon-lit streets of Kaanalos City, where you play an agender mercenary starting a new life. You choose an AI companion and decide how to spend your time, from investigating a murder for the KCPD and exposing a criminal conspiracy involving Baxter Corp to exploring the city, taking quests or delivering pizza. The game also lets you move drugs and hire prostitutes, and includes an area where catgirls live.

Explore Kaanalos City

Exploration is central to finding new places, uncovering secrets and learning about the city’s lore. You can purchase different apartments, interact with custom NPCs who each have their own dialogue, and find Easter eggs and other surprises. A lore book provides more background on the world.

Investigate and fight

The main story involves solving a mystery, including examining crime scenes for clues, and confronting the city’s underworld. Battles against enemies, including mutated monsters and bots, are turn-based. The main storyline takes around 2 hours to complete if you rush through it, but quests and other activities offer more to explore. Completing the storyline unlocks assassination contracts.

Story and challenges

Your choices determine which of two endings you reach, each with a different outcome. Nightmare Difficulty is available for the final mission as an extra challenge. You can also choose an AI girlfriend or boyfriend and customize the game’s lighting with a hue changer.
