About This Game

Managing the future of technology with humanity from a gas station

GAMEPLAY

Flat Eye is a perfectly balanced blend of management simulation and narrative-driven gameplay. As the manager of the world’s premier gas and technological hub, it’s your job to keep your station running smoothly, complete daily objectives tasked by the world’s first true AI, and develop new technology to improve (or curse) the future of humanity.

**Flat Eye deals with technology and its impact on our lives. Therefore, it might contain heavy topics not suitable for everyone.**

FEATURES

Explore a vast tech tree to discover and install new modules into your station to entice “Premium Customers”. Each of these characters will bring with them a new and eye-opening narrative for you to interact with and influence.

Example Modules**:

• Organ vending Machine (Lab-grown, no free-range organs here)
  
• Artificial Womb (Please keep your receipt to receive the correct baby)
  
• Cloning Booth (Four hands are better than two)
  
• Memory modification (Who needs regrets when you can erase them in a snap?)
  
• Smart toilets (We’ll let you figure that one out)
  
• Teleportation (One-way tickets only)
  
• Plus, many more!

Each day you will need to report your store’s earnings and rating to the world’s first AI (and subsequently, the owner of Flat Eye and its parent company). A word of caution - don’t disappoint them.

STORY

Flat Eye’s narrative centers around the exploration of emergent technologies through the stories of returning customers.

Not everyone that enters your station will be of importance - this is where “Premium Customers” come in. These “premium” characters will only appear once a specific set of modules are available for use in your station. Each of these customers has been profiled by the station’s AI as those who will have an important request that once explored, could have rippling effects on the future of humanity.

As the station’s manager, your job will be to listen to the needs of the “Premium Customers” and make decisions on behalf of humanity. It’s a tough job, but you don’t get paid minimum wage for nothing!
