Palm Pioneer, an indie dev from China has released an extended gameplay preview for Tales of the Neon Sea, a pixel-art, story driven game that takes inspiration from classics like Blade Runner and Ghost in the Shell.

For those that have played the Steam demo, this picks up after that, so be sure to give that a go, if you have not.

"We love the idea of a detective/crime type story within a cyberpunk setting. Like those classics, we’ll be looking at the relationship between humans and AI/robots, with the player solving crimes as part of the core gameplay. Of course, how we differentiate our narrative from those that have come before us will ultimately characterize Tales of the Neon Sea, and in this regard we’re taking a more light-hearted, humorous, and quirky approach to the genre." says the producer, Tian Chao, "Creating detailed and attractive pixel-art and lighting it in unique ways is one of our skills. Cyberpunk and pixel-art tend to be a good match, so it made sense for us to proceed in this direction with Tales of the Neon Sea."

The game is releasing on April 30th in full, console versions of the game are yet to have a date provided.
