About the Game
Dystopika is a small city-builder inspired by cyberpunk and the wanderlust of cities that never sleep.
Place buildings, giant billboards, and towering holograms, working in harmony with procedural generation for landscape, traffic, and lights to create your own future metropolis rich with vibes and ambience. Escape to your own little dystopian dreams (or nightmares).
No goals, no objectives, no wins or losses. Just relax and embrace creative cyberpunk zen. If you love to turn on the cheat codes and just build, this one's for you.
Welcome to the Darker Side Of Cozy.

What’s New
A “Hide Mask” option has been added to the Billboard controls, allowing you to remove the cut corners and have a full rectangular image.
New console commands have been added for more control over video recording output. Both these commands have only been partially tested and are considered Experimental features that may produce unexpected results. ⚠️
setting-videorecording-offline command has been added to the console to enable “Offline Rendering” to achieve smoother video recording at the expense of causing gameplay stutter while recording.
setting-videorecording-fps allows you to change the recording framerate (e.g. 60fps).
setting-videorecording-mbps allows you to set an average and maximum Mbps bitrate for video recording to produce higher quality recordings at the expense of file size.
setting-videorecording-interval allows you to set the keyframe interval for recording to produce higher quality videos in some scenarios.
