Dystopika is a toy for making cyberpunk cities and it's rad


A look at the cyberpunk city builder Dystopika, as part of our Wishlisted series.

A note at the start of the current Steam demo reveals that this design toy is the work of a single creator, Matt Marshall, and it's been inspired by a year of travelling in Asia and walking huge cities at night. You can go in deep and choose between a range of different districts, if you want, but a huge part of the appeal of cyberpunk has always struck me as being a sort of hypermodernism, with buildings of different eras, uses, and cultures smooshed together in the night. | Image credit: Voids Within, Unikat Label After you've built your city there's a lovely range of tools for photographing it, and once I'm done here today I'm probably going to head back in, tweak settings, and take some truly cursed screenshots.
