Control can’t wait for the end of his shift so he can finally open the bottle of sake he has waiting in his desk drawer. His mysterious background is slowly revealed throughout the story.
#Cloudpunk plot drivers
Control knows he shouldn’t get attached to his drivers as the job is dangerous, but he can’t help himself. He is grizzled and tired but laughs often. Rania’s call handler for the night is Control.
From cherry pie to dumplings, she’ll never walk past a food stall without checking out what is hot and cheap. Rania doesn’t drink, but she connects with Nivalis through her love of street food. She’s clever and a little cynical, and she’s not easily manipulated or tricked. Just like the player, she is new to the city and has a lot to learn. Rania is an outsider, an immigrant and - most importantly for Cloudpunk - a good driver.
How do they pay their bills? Who are their friends and rivals? What is it like for them to work the nightshift for a delivery company, flying between buildings, meeting interesting people, and listening to a pulsing synth soundtrack? To answer those questions, we needed a hero. Instead, we wanted to tell the story of a regular person living a normal life in a cyberpunk world. We knew Cloudpunk wasn’t going to be a typical cyberpunk story about grizzled cyborg cops or robot gangs shooting each other in the street. When I first joined the project, Cloudpunk had a beautiful voxel world filled with flying vehicles, but no characters or plot yet. Today I’m going to tell you about five of the most important people you’ll meet during your rain-soaked, neon-infused cyberpunk adventure. Everyone has their favourite, and I’m really touched by how the community has taken these androids, humans, and cyborgs to heart. Since release, seeing players’ response to the diverse and colourful cast of characters has been a blast. I’m Thomas Welsh, lead writer and narrative designer on Cloudpunk, and I created the characters you’ll meet in the cyberpunk city of Nivalis.
