I can't wait for this ambitious, procgen Deus Ex-like to hit early access next month

Every NPC has a name, job, and daily routine. Time to go through their trash.

" has got an early access release date. You'll be able to stalk its voxelized streets and read everyone else's emails on April 24 this year.

I'm intrigued by this one. I've been following Shadows of Doubt ever since it first started making all the right noises back in 2020. Set in a procedurally generated city in an alternative, cyberpunk 1980s, the game features"a fully simulated world with hundreds of citizens" each going about their separate little lives, and all with"their own name, job, apartment and daily routine".

Your job is to creep on just about all of them in order to catch a murderer. Using an array of gadgets and whatever warped solutions you can conjure up using the game's systems—plus, naturally, a conspiracy cork board where you draw red string between suspects—your task is to"track down a serial killer" whose crimes are as procedurally generated as the city they happen in.it's"functionally complete".

Early access status also means that the game won't"feature a story thread of missions beyond those featured in the demo" to begin with. But right now I'm more interested in seeing what I can do with the game's systems than I am in a proper story, so I think I can manage."even with the occasional quirk, there's so much to like here, from the moody voxel environments, ambient sounds and rain effects, to the density of stuff to discover and ways to discover it".
