CLOUDPUNK NEW HOVA DRIVER

As a delivery driver, it’s Rania’s job to ferry items, both illicit and legal, and passengers from point A to point B. It’s an atmospheric good time, held back only by some uneven optimization evident in some of the game’s ports to other platforms.Ĭloudpunk‘s story unfolds almost exclusively within Rania’s HOVA and over the car’s radio receiver, with characters and conversations frequently not visible outside of the character portraits that accompany dialog and gameplay only serving as a vehicle (pun intended) to give the player some interaction as the story unfolds. Players will spend the next ten-or-so hours cruising through Nivalis’ vast vertical districts or hopping on the city’s highway for longer distances as they experience a well-told story and meet a colorful cast of characters. As her first night in Nivalis gets underway, the game throws players right behind the wheel of Rania’s HOVA, her rocket-propelled hovercar without any further preamble.

More specifically, they take on the role of Rania, a brand-new resident of Nivalis who has just started her very first shift as a driver for the game’s eponymous off-the-grid delivery service.

This is the world players step into in developer Ion Lands’ Cloudpunk. The tenuous existence between Man and AI is about to reach a critical zenith: the artificial intelligence governing many of the city’s municipal functions has become increasingly unreliable, causing the city to further deteriorate.

Nivalis is a city on the brink of an upheaval. A city divided into societal castes, separating the wealthy from the poor, the flesh-and-bone from the sentient and artificial. A city overlooking the abyss, built upon the ruins of what came before.
