Check out how this cyberpunk Xbox One game made it to Microsoft's stage and won us all over.
This is a really cool video showing the process a tiny dev team go through trying to make a trailer for E3. They nailed it, the game is absolutely gorgeous. Really looking forward to seeing more.

Edit, I wasn't fully aware of the background to the game or the dev when the video popped up in my Twitter feed.
Every time I get reminded of this game, it sucks. As a huge fan of modern pixel art and cyberpunk and cinematic platformer, this was clicking every box for me. Even posted about its GIFs and dev updates a ton on GAF. It was probably my most anticipated indie game after Rain World
So of course it turns out to be about an alt-rights nightmare of a dystopia built upon and based arond the devs fucked-up beliefs. A very story-driven, choice-heavy adventure based on all that, to the point that the creator wanted to put a Gamergate mascot in the game as a character.
Fuck that. Such a disappointing turn-of-events. You cant separate creator from creation when the creators beliefs form the backbone and story of that creation.
And a VICE article/interview with the dev from this years E3.
