Hi @lewiscavallo 
! You seems to like Synthwave so i would like to invite you to join our community :) https://gamejolt.com/c/wave-g6cxjs
The Final Shutdown
You are the final virtual human left on the Cyber Space System before it completely shuts down forever. How do you spend your final moments 'alive'? Well you drive around in a city blasting your favourite synth-wave of course.
Music is very important to your final minutes left in your virtual world. These songs are influences on The Final Shutdown and must be linked to here.
Firstly you start with a modern classic syth-wave song
HOME by Resonance
You can also find two other songs hidden in the city
SO FAR AWAY by LAZERHAWK
ACCELERATED by Miami Nights 1984
I do not own and did not create these songs, this game is more of a tribute to show off how amazing these songs are! Please google these songs and buy them if you enjoy them!
Better yet, why not send these memories to anyone out there watching. Take pictures with your camera inside the virtual world and share them with everyone on the outside.
Pictures taken inside The Final Shutdown using the in-game camera can be found inside The Final Shutdown_Data/Screenshots folder for windows. For other operating systems it will be inside a folder labelled "Data" which should be inside a "Resources" folder. Please feel free to send me your pictures you take in the comments below or tweet it to me!
Please keep in mind, this an ongoing project which will see more mechanics + cars + virtual spaces + music added into the game as time goes on. This game will ALWAYS BE FREE.

As said above, the linux version of The Final Shutdown has been removed for now while I figure out why Unity is not exporting the Linux build correctly. Sorry!
New update version 0.0.2
Welcome to the initial release of The Final Shutdown version 0.0.1. I plan on adding more content soon but would love to see what people think so far, even though its rather small. I'd like to see what people want form the next update by using a poll.
