Genre Research

We've started a reference dropbox folder that everyone is/will be invited to. I've done some research into games using the Diesel Punk genre. Copy/Paste from the groups facebook page.

Allods online does diesel punk in a high fantasy setting. Different art style to what we're probably going to aim for (hand painted vs normal mapped) but some cool ideas.
