TLDR; I think Cloudpunk is great!
Cloudpunk lets me live out my dreams of being a delivery driver in a highly populated cyberpunk city.
I get to drive my hover-car(HOVA) just about anywhere I want in a city spanning multiple levels of the sky.
The city is super well presented and designed. Filled with neon lights and featuring highways that allow cars to drive faster along longer paths. It takes the idea of flying cars that can go anywhere and implements it in a structured way that you could imagine being real. Parking spots are per-defined and roads make sense. The city, while mostly just for show, has structure and feels planned. You know, like a real city.
Cloudpunk is not an over the top action game. It is relaxed and pleasant to play with an emphasis of exploration.
You don't have a gun, you can't punch, hell you can't even jump.
Navigation is either driving a hover car or walking with the aid of moving elevators to reach different levels.
Cloudpunk is at it's core a story game and to be clear I'm writing this without having finished the game.
The story is well presented with great voice acting! It is well presented and well paced with the nice addition of side characters that present interesting conversations and ideas throughout the city.
If you're looking for a cool cyberpunk experience with more relaxed game-play, beautiful looks and great design, well this is, in my opinion, worth the money.
My one gripe is the lack of VR support as this game would be amazing in VR! With that being said, I've seen some related rumors around the inter-webs...
