The Sewer is an English language steampunk Role-playing video game currently being developed and due for release in late 2013. It should be a multi-platform game, with planned releaeses for Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Android and iOS devices. While the game is being produced by a team based in Italy, crowdfunding was solicited via Indiegogo (The Sewer page on Indegogo) to further help developing the project and porting the game onto more platforms. The game is presented as a roguelike "first-person dungeon crawler" involving monsters and mystical creatures, set in Steampunk London in 1888.

Plot

In a steampunk London, during Jack the Ripper's killing spree, all the inhabitants of the city have recurrent nightmares every night. A wizened old man, draped in colorful clothing and strange amulets, knocked at your door. He told you he knows the way to stop these nightmares, and free everyone. The cure is buried in the sewers, protected by members of a strange cult, eager to sacrifice you to their alien Other Gods, or feed you to one of the horrible creatures that haunt the sewers.

Development

This is a first person dungeon crawler, in which you are investigating the London sewers about this epidemic of nightmares, while other creatures try to kill you. The underground is randomly generated, so every playthrough is different. The player can be one of many character classes: you can be a member of a street gang, a scholar of the hermetic arts or a scoundrel that lives in the thin line between light and dark, or many other classes.

There will be an online marketplace to trade the items you will find in the dungeon with other players playing The Sewer. Development of the game is already underway, and will continue even after the first release of the game, to add new features and enhancements.

The game will be developed using the Unity3D engine and will be multiplatform (Windows, Mac OS, Linux) and will run also on mobile device (iOS and Android).
