Story
The year is 3XXX A.D., and what little remains of civilization is now scattered across the globe in secluded, self-sustained settlements. People are disconnected and disinformed. Any effort of expansion or exploration is hindered by the Overseer - a powerful AI rumored to have caused the collapse. Dangerous Roamer bots are walking around the surface of the planet with an unknown objective.
Fed up with farming and gardening in her village, our main hero, Vihra yearns to explore the world. She builds her own hoverboard in hopes of sneaking out, but her curiosity brings a threat to her family's survival.
