DevBlog #7: A New Look: Crafting the Official Trailer

Hey everyone,

This week, I want to share something a bit different—an update on the new trailer we’ve been working on for Void Future.

When I first started this project, I released a teaser trailer to give you a glimpse into the world and atmosphere of the game. But looking back, that early version only scratched the surface. It showed limited gameplay, mostly focused on a single section of the game, and honestly—it no longer reflects where Void Future is today.



Since then, the game has evolved. With the new 3D levels, the city becomes more than just a backdrop—these segments immerse you deeper into the world, blending exploration and narrative in a way that pushes the story forward. With that in mind, I felt it was time to create a new trailer—one that truly represents the experience I want to deliver.



This new trailer will give you a broader view of the gameplay, the updated visual style, and—most importantly—a taste of the narrative tension you’ll face as you navigate a city that’s always watching. Expect to see hacking, stealth, and that constant feeling of being just one step away from getting caught.



We’re also preparing this trailer as part of the upcoming demo launch. That’s right—Void Future’s first playable slice is on the way, and this new footage will set the stage for what’s to come.

Thanks for being here—your support means the world as we keep building this dystopian journey together.

Dev Blog #6: The Art of Staying Hidden

In Void Future, information is the most valuable currency—and the most dangerous liability. Every move you make in the digital world leaves a trace, and in a society where every action is monitored, even the smallest mistake can cost you everything. Today, we're diving into the detection system and how players must outsmart the omnipresent surveillance networks to survive.

Digital Shadows – How Detection Works

Unlike traditional stealth mechanics where crouching in a dark corner might save you, Void Future operates on an entirely different level: network visibility. Every action you take online is logged, analyzed, and tracked by advanced AI-driven security systems. Simply connecting to a server is enough to alert watchful eyes. Once your presence is logged, your IP address becomes a breadcrumb leading directly back to you.

A detection meter tracks how much attention you're drawing. Each reckless action—breaching a server, bypassing a firewall, cracking encrypted data—pushes you closer to being discovered. When the meter reaches 100%, it's over. The system pinpoints your location, authorities are dispatched, and the game ends. Staying ahead of detection isn’t just a suggestion—it’s survival.

Staying One Step Ahead

So how do you operate in the shadows of a hyper-connected world? You have a few tools at your disposal:

1. Wipe Your Footprints – Deleting Logs

Every server you infiltrate keeps a detailed log of who accessed it and when. Leaving this data untouched is a death sentence. Before disconnecting, you must manually erase these logs, covering your tracks before security systems flag your presence. However, time is a luxury—cleaning logs takes precious seconds, and sometimes you need a faster way to disappear.

2. Bounce Your Signal – Masking Your Presence

The more direct your connection, the faster you're detected. That’s where bounced links come into play. Once you've fully compromised a server, you can repurpose it as a proxy—rerouting your connection through it to mask your origin. The more bounces you chain together, the harder it is for security to trace you. However, each bounce adds latency, slowing down your hacks and increasing risk. It’s a delicate balance between security and efficiency.

A Living, Breathing Cyberworld

The detection system isn’t just a gameplay mechanic—it’s a core part of Void Future’s worldbuilding. Security isn’t an arbitrary obstacle; it’s a realistic response to a society obsessed with control. The omnipresence of digital tracking reflects the dystopian reality of 2045, where privacy is a relic of the past.

How you navigate this world is up to you. Do you take your time, carefully erasing logs and covering your tracks? Or do you push your luck, moving quickly and trusting your skill to keep you ahead of the watchdogs? The choice is yours—but remember, they are always watching.

Stay sharp, and stay hidden.

Dev Blog #5: The World of Void Future

Hello everyone,

Today, we’re diving deep into the world of Void Future, a city teetering on the edge between technological marvel and total control.

🕶️ A Glimpse into 2045
The story of Void Future unfolds in the not-so-distant future of 2045. This world isn’t a neon-soaked fantasy or a far-fetched sci-fi utopia. Instead, it is a dark projection of our current societal trajectory. Towering glass and metal skyscrapers pierce a smoggy sky, surveillance screens pulse with targeted ads, and narrow alleys hold secrets in their shadows. The city breathes a cold, calculated air where human warmth feels scarce.

🛰️ Technology: Grounded Yet Unforgiving
Technology in Void Future is advanced but remains within the realm of possibility. Drones buzz through the air, especially those operated by law enforcement, keeping a watchful eye on crowded streets and forgotten neighborhoods alike. The world is deeply interconnected—every device, every interaction leaves a trace. With everyone's digital fingerprint constantly exposed, it has become nearly impossible to go off the grid. Privacy is an illusion, and those who try to hide often find themselves under the harshest spotlight.

🚷 Living Under the Digital Eye
In this world, personal freedom is a relic of the past. Every individual has a digital footprint, a comprehensive record of their entire life—medical history, financial transactions, social interactions—all seamlessly accessible by those in power. It's a society where a single misstep can trigger an alert, where the line between reality and the digital realm is blurred.

🎨 Art and Atmosphere
Visually, Void Future draws inspiration from a blend of cyberpunk and contemporary dystopian aesthetics. The environments mix gritty realism with stylized pixel-inspired elements, creating a world that feels both familiar and unsettling. From the dim glow of holographic ads to the stark, sterile lighting of corporate lobbies, every scene is crafted to immerse you in a narrative of control and resistance.

We hope this gives you a taste of what’s to come. Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, we’d love to hear your thoughts. Follow us on social media, add Void Future to your Steam wishlist, and keep an eye out for our upcoming demo!

Until next time, stay safe—digitally and otherwise.
