Our take on UNPLUGGED
The focus on direct beat ’em up action gives up the broader exploration and varied progression found in larger adventure or role-playing structures. Combat choice comes from melee and ranged techniques rather than from a wider set of gameplay systems.
What is UNPLUGGED?
UNPLUGGED is an indie beat ’em up set in a dystopian future where people rent out their minds for exploitation in cyberspace.
The system uses this arrangement to mine XCOIN, described as the world’s only currency. Against this backdrop, illegal activity and attempts to disconnect from the system shape a quest for redemption. Combat supports both close-range and ranged attacks, with unlockable skills and abilities that can be applied in different ways. The game combines classic beat ’em up play with additional combat moves. Its presentation uses fully hand-drawn animation and graphics.
