[Character Design] 47: 60,000 Ft Under; 'Game Starter' Page - Project Info


Abandoned
It is the year 2064, Earth has become unstable after humanity dug too deep in search of resources. Many of our species have narrowly avoided extinction via its evacuation; but you have been left behind.


Identity
Even though you are one of the few survivors left on Earth, take comfort, for you are no ordinary human; you are a cyborg. You were once a rocket engineer for a powerful space agency, whose faded badge you still carry upon your robotic arm. 


Escape
To escape Earth you must first venture deep beneath its surface to 60,000 Ft Under and beyond, in search of valuable resources to help you build your own spacecraft before the planet implodes.


Battle
During this adventure, you must do battle with earthly creatures never thought possible, and survive. 
These creatures are not only carbon-based like all known life on Earth, but have formed from many of Earth’s other minerals, right beneath our feet.


Survive
To survive, you must scavenge for scrap and minerals; resources that will not only help you survive, but aid in the construction of powerful weaponry.


Discover
The world that our massive 3D board game lays before you is not as set in fiction as it may seem, a lot of the attributes and abilities you will encounter from the game pull from real life characteristics of the Earth's elements, or forms of measurement.

So if we wanted to know what it’d take to melt the radioactive uranium-based torbernite right off a Torbernite Rumbler’s back, we turn to the UK’s much loved (and loathed) scale of degrees Celsius to discover its melting point.

After weeks of testing and almost daily resets of our “Days Without Injury” counter, we have established that it would take a Magma-Gun shooting a stream of lava at least 1,135°C to have any chance of melting it. [Source]
