SOVIETBORGS by Retro Sumus (Xenocider devs)
« on: May 11, 2024, 05:24:22 pm »


On November 9, 1989, 11:14 pm, the KGB's glorious electronic brain, Tovarishch-Prime, became self-aware, and immediately managed to take control of Arpanet, triggering the detonation of all capitalist thermo-nuclear devices inside their own silos.

Today, 25 years later, the West remains a nuclear wasteland. But like cockroaches, there are still some pockets of resistance and free-thinking threatening our workers' paradise. In these forsaken locations, new mutant races have emerged due to radiation and their sickening capitalist mind.

Fortunately, the Soviet People have developed a new unit of the illustrious Red Army, the SovietBorgs. Half man, half machine, all proletarian, they can go where no one else can, inmune to radiation, and liberate all new capitalist races from their pitiful existence.

Join the SovietBorgs. Become a part of their prestigious present and future, travel the world pacifying all the hotbeds of belligerence. Let the dream world of our venerable Tovarishch-Prime finally become a reality for all.

Let's pacify the West!

Only Tocarishch-Prime is eternal.

Just a silly old concept we were playing around with a few months ago.

The Sovietborgs are coming to Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, Dreamcast and, well, who knows!



Let's pacify the West!

That's exactly the idea :)

First boss reveal!

Today we celebrate the Día de la Hispanidad! But when the Sovietborgs arrive to Spain, all they can see is a nuclear wasteland, full of fog and interference...

Sovietborgs is shaping up nicely, if we may say so ourselves. Faith Johnson AKA Retrofaith just played our little demo for Sega Genesis / Mega Drive and shared her impressions! 👇

The world of Sovietborgs is a nuclear wasteland plagued by mutants, victims of radiation and free will.

But resistance is futile. 💥

You can run, but you can't hide from liberation. The Sovietborgs are coming. Resistence is futile.
