Battery City

This was made for a school sci-fi project, we just had to make a mock screenshot, but I went a little overboard and built up the whole narrative and story line. It's set inside a post-apocalyptic city inspired by a mix of Kowloon, Made in Abyss (2013 – ongoing manga), Library of Ruina (2021 game) and I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream (1965 short story/essay). You play as Cathy, slowly making your way down the many layers of the city, B367 and piecing together the truth of the city - that the whole place is just a battery harvesting people's energy to power a giant spaceship where the main population lives.
