Morning Star is an unusual cyberpunk simulation game developed by the American studio Metkis.
Story
The action is set in the world of the future, presenting a typical cyberpunk vision of human development. This is a classic dystopia - with all-powerful corporations, growing social inequalities and widespread cyberware.
The way in which Morning Star approaches cyberpunk realities, however, is highly original. The game is set in the late phase of this period, when people are tired of how the world looks like and begin to change it. Instead of being in the middle of a big metropolis, the action takes place on the outskirts - in a small town whose inhabitants decided to return to a simpler life and try to create a new society. However, they do not intend to give up technology and computers are still their main source of income. The player takes on the role of one of these people.
Mechanics
Morning Star is a very unusual simulation. It is modeled on farming games, but where computers are our soil, seeds, programs, and crops. The player must manage the server rooms and improve the hardware and collect processed information.
We observe the events from the eyes of the protagonist and we have to perform all the actions manually. We invest the money we earn in the modernization of computers and the purchase of new ones, which enables us to increase the scale of our business. At the same time, the game is governed by an extensive economic system, which requires a proper balance of expenses and profits.
The action is set in a small town. Like typical farming games, we can make friends and take part in local events, and our decisions influence the attitude of other residents towards our character.
Technical aspects
The game offers attractive, fully 3D visuals. It was made in a slightly simplified, vector style, with angular objects and simple textures. It harmonizes well with the retrofuturistic vision of a cyberpunk future, modeled on films and novels from the 80s of the last century.
