2088 was created by a small team in 2020, as a final project the Game Development I course. The player is slowly guided by a blue hologram named "Schmeeku" through multiple levels of robot enemies that they are meant to defeat.

Once they reach Schmeeku's  lair, they are tricked into freeing her and enter a boss fight. The game name is a nod to what was at the time, the recently released Cyberpunk: 2077.
