He’s a good boy who will do anything for Rania and can also tell her things about her vehicle such as fuel levels - the HOVA can be refueled at fuel stations - and whether or not you need to service the HOVA for repairs made while bumping your way around the city. The banter between Rania and him, as he discovers inconsistencies from being a dog and becoming a computer, lends itself to some of the funniest exchanges in the game. Thankfully, you’re not alone with your thoughts while you make your deliveries as your dog Camus, who has been turned into an AI personality, is your flight computer and he helps you on your way. You’ll have plenty of time to practice as the majority of your time spent in the game is flying your HOVA from one destination to the next. Combining all these controls is not so much a matter of skill but figuring out a smooth means to both raise your ship and skirt around a building at a high speed. You have the ability to raise and lower your height to travel vertically, and of course, turn left and right and move forward and backward. Driving all over the megacity that is Nivalis, and taking on jobs big and small, Rania starts to better understand the need for such a service but also finds herself in the midst of a citywide conflict.ĭriving a HOVA takes a bit of practice, but thankfully the game is relatively forgiving regarding bumping into random signs, buildings, cars, and many other things that you can accidentally careen into. The car is provided by Cloudpunk, a delivery service that glides along the line between legal-or-not and one that has a simple rule: don’t ask what’s in the package. Your character in Cloudpunk, Rania, drives a hovercar known as a HOVA and uses it to deliver packages, and sometimes people, to their destination. While Cloudpunk ’s depiction of the future might be a way off, the lessons learned from the actions and demands of its denizens depict a world that is not unlike our own. It uses a rain-soaked, dystopian society with a futuristic means of transportation to tell a story about the dangers of trust. Cloudpunk is filled with flying cars and impossibly tall skyscrapers doused in a future-noir chic.
