Backbone: A Pixel Art Cinematic Adventure
Backbone is a pixel art cinematic adventure game that takes place in a dystopian Vancouver, BC. You play as Howard Lotor, a raccoon private investigator, who is set to solve detective cases, interrogate witnesses, explore the intriguing and dangerous world around you, and sneak your way to safety using smell-based stealth mechanics. The game combines the visual and social contrasts of film noir with anthropomorphic animals, retrofuturistic technologies, and dystopian fiction.
The game offers a rich, living, and breathing world that's waiting to be explored. The real locations and breathtaking pixel landscapes of Vancouver, BC, are something you've never seen before but always wished you had. The storyline is thought-provoking, featuring themes of power, corruption, social decay, and systemic discrimination. Every case has numerous trails, and it's up to you to decide which one to follow. The game offers both stealth and action gameplay, and the Artifact is a unique ancient technology with unknown origins and purpose that can change the regular order or destroy it.
