Kaoç is an open world sandbox game set in a satirical near future (2027) Brazil that I’ve been working on since August of 2021.
I’ve been aiming to create a large, beautiful and varied open world full of detail, funny satirical brands and more. After a few months, the amount of progress I’ve done is massive. I’ve changed the artstyle to an 80’s City Pop painting inspired style with a decent amount of detail.
The state of Kaoç is now larger than games like GTA Vice City and has 3 cities, based on iconic Brazilian cities:
The City Of Kaoç, based on Rio De Janeiro
(Fictional housing)
(Kahuna Beach, based on Copacabana Beach)
(Flatline City Center, based on New York City Center)
(Richard Duvin Hotels, based on cancelled hotel concepts)
(Kaoç Museum Of Mockable Arts, based on Rio De Janeiro Museum Of Modern Arts)
(I❤️KAOC sign, based on I❤️RIO sign at Copacabana Beach)
Dragão, based on Sao Paulo and some other cities
(District based on Liberdade, which is by the way the world’s largest Japantown!)
(Large view from a fictional pier)
and Baía Dourada, based on Brasília
(Bridge based on the Juscelino Kubitschek bridge
(A large view of Baia Dourada)
That’s not all. You’ll also be able to go in the jungles outside the city and see some stunning views. Vegetation has been overhauled to look more detailed and to be easier on the eyes.
But that’s still not everything! Here are some of the interiors you’ll be able to check out during your perfectly legal trip across the state.
(Novan, Based on a McDonald’s in Liberdade)
(Neotech, a Y2K clothing store)
(Encore(!), a casual clothing store)
(Flatline City Center, a mall based on the New York City Center)
(Golden Dawn, a fictional hotel)
(these aren’t all the interiors in the map)
All of this is in a single map and runs well, even on mobile devices thanks to LODs and StreamingEnabled.
I’m proud of my work, and I’m hoping I can finish this game soon. You can join the game’s Discord server if you want to ask any questions or want to see some work in progress content.
