About VELVETIST: Prototype

"The City Of Machine Guns,
back in those days,
me and Richard were working for a local racketeer everybody called Pepas.

I thought things were going fine in the city,
but after this job,
I started to have my doubts about it's state."

The prototype is not a demo or a fully fledged game,
it contains only a basic structure on top of which we wish
to build Velvetist: The City Of Machineguns.

The story of this prototype is set in the first third of the overall story.
You will play around with a small amount of vehicles, characters and one mission.
Velvetist Prototype introduce the vision of a third person action open world adventure game set in an old, socialist occupied town of the second half of the 20th century.

Prototype introduces gameplay features such as:
  • city driving and shootouts, which are tied together with cinematics that tell the story
  • simple puzzles
  • searching for lenses
  • chasing
  • carrying boxes
  • conversations and meeting new people

Missions are made up of these basic elements, but each has its own color and the player will never be bored

✦ AI summary

Players describe this as an abandoned student project with significant technical issues, particularly around object interaction and quest mechanics that prevent progression. While some appreciate the game's core concept, the broken functionality and lack of polish make it difficult to recommend, and most agree the project appears to have been abandoned without completion.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
