Xenocop

   Geddon, the leader of the dreaded space pirates, has escaped from his inter-dimensional prison and fled with his gang to a tiny backwater planet called Earth. Daoki is a law enforcer who was horribly disfigured during the escape. Transformed into a cyborg, he must recapture or kill them all before they can plunder our planet and return to destroy the Unified Star League.
   When Daoki finds the criminals, he is ambushed and left for dead. With no way home and most of his systems damaged, he must restore his body and with the aid of some new friends, take Geddon and his minions down for good.

Proposed in-game features (subject to change):
• Collect clues and solve mysteries to track down criminals
• Use different styles of combat "techs" to exploit enemy weaknesses
• Discover new combat techs in battle
• Holographic disguises- infiltrate areas and use stealth to achieve your objectives
• Concept-based repair system: By interacting with the world, Daoki can rediscover lost abilities
• Explore new areas as more of your abilities are unlocked
• No random encounters, you can use stealth to avoid unnecessary combat situations.
• Integrated mini games that blend in with the story, rather than being extraneous distractions
• Custom menu and battle systems
• Cultural references, some obscure, some not so obscure
• Soundtrack by Project Pitchfork


Characters:
Daoki- A law enforcer from another star system. With his body damaged during the prison break, his brain was transferred into an experimental cyborg body. Capturing the escaped felons is now his highest priority.
Ray- A young man who discovers the damaged Daoki in an abandoned train car. He helps the cyborg repair his damaged systems and teaches him how to blend in with the locals.
Fran- Ray's older sister, who has to look after him, since their father died and mother works two jobs. She doesn't know of Daoki's origins and develops a crush on one of his disguised forms.
Cyndi- Ray's best friend, a young tomboy who is also a whiz with computers and electronics. When Ray discovers Daoki's body, Cyndi is the first person he turns to for help.
Geddon- Leader of a gang of ruthless space pirates. After breaking out of prison, he led his gang to Earth, in order to lay low and stage his attack on those who imprisoned him. He has gathered the 16 most wanted criminals in the galaxy to wage war on the Unified Star League and crush them. His attacks center on the use of dual beam swords and technologically-enhanced psionic powers.
