ANYWAYS....let me introduce you to:
[b]Dex - Cyberpunk 2D RPG[/b]
What is Dex? A story-driven action/stealth 2D sidescrolling RPG with a fresh new vision of cyberspace/cyberpunk! Also, you play as a female lead character which is awesome because there is way too video games that only allow the player to play as a male character.
This game reminds me of the classic [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Nt3f0u7IkM]Metroid NES[/url] and [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FByXeWTe_50]Super Metroid SNES[/url] games (lead character is actually a female in those games as well) blended in with Blade Runner except you are a female version of Rick Deckard? I will let YOU be the judge of that by checking out this short trailer video by clicking the link below!

Here is a small background info about the game via copy/paste
[b]"Explore the dark alleys of Harbor Prime and a host of diverse locations in both physical reality and the wild reaches of cyberspace. Discover the truth behind an enigmatic AI striving to reach the Singularity, a theoretical “event horizon†in which artificial intelligence will surpass human intelligence and all bets about the future will be off. How will you play your part in the story?"[/b]
The best part about this project is that it already raised the amount of money to actually make and release the game in 8 DAYS after it launched! BUT there is some kick ass stretch goals as well. Most of all a copy of this game will only cost you £7 pounds which is about $11.50 in American money and as a hardcore gamer like myself since I own all the video game systems that is a steal for a good looking game like DEX.
Oh I forgot to link you the project, silly me!

This will be released on the Windows, Mac, Linux, Ouya and possibly the Nintendo Wii U if the £26k stretch goal is achieved and recently it was set at £28k but the project leader found a way to cut £2k out of it because the project leader himself also wants to see this game on the Nintendo Wii U. Hell, I would LOVE to play this on the Wii U GamePad in the dark while laying in bed.
Anyways, so yeah check it out and support it if you can! If this doesn't look like yer cup of tea then maybe you know someone else that may enjoy it? I am just a fan that is REALLY looking forward to playing this game on the PC since it will be released on that first obviously but I would totally re-play it again on the Wii U if the stretch goal is met.
Here are some screen shots!

Whew! All done! So what do you think? Am I the only one that is getting a blade runner vibe from this or am I just going crazy here?
