The Neptaj and Neptune
Willy is the Limit
WILLY IS THE LIMIT is a stealth-driving game where you play as Willy, a street thug and pimp who also deals in the extremely rare trade of rainbow lily. You start the game in Willy's Jetta and receive calls from various clients. This is where it gets strategic. You have to pull out the map, mark their position and navigate your way through dense traffic with surveillance cameras and Zubama Metro Police everywhere. Because everyone is microchipped, you are able to access the mainframe (thanks to the assistance of MacGuffin in the Neptshwane who also provides you with the rainbow lily).
​
The main dynamic of the game is to evade cameras and officers and deliver the bankie in time. The quicker you do it the more Kossy Credits you get. Every time you get busted or infringe or get caught by cameras, credits get subtracted. It is a society run by a technocratic cryptocurrency. The Games are like Dreamcast.

WILLY IS THE LIMIT is an open world dagga delivery simulator
set in Uranusfontein, an alternate version of Johannesburg, South Africa. The City is governed by the Uranus Corporation and quarantined by the Neptshwane Army to prevent the spread of sludge, or Slovid-23, a chemical waste that originates from underneath the city. The Uranus News Network (UNN) keep people updated about the statistics (randomly generated) while they are bombarded with edutainment and other media from the various channels from the Uranus Corporation.
​
In the centre of the city is Uranus HQ, the hub of the Corporation and offices of Eric Zubama, dictator of Uranusfontein (Cybernetic Reptilian Demon accidentally controlled through cybernetic voodoo from the K-SE Tower). Zubama's security forces (ZMPD) are on the constant lookout to bust people dealing weed and other petty offences. All citizens have to take the government sanctioned Kossy Pills to ward off Slovid-23 and remain neutral and hypnotized to the signal from Uranus. You play as Willy, an incarnation of Prizm Wisard who is stuck and microchipped in this surveillance state and is dealing weed for the Neptshwane Army to various Uranus celebrities.
The game is essentially a stealth-driving simulator where you receive calls and orders and then have to navigate the streets without the security forces noticing you. When they notice you, a car chase sequence ensues and you have to lose their tail. The game engine is based on the Driver Syndicate physics engine.
​
A very fun arcade game with fun repetitive addictive action. When a cop notices you, it might put on its lights and then if you transgress......a car chase ensues.
A K-SE social credit system. There are cameras everywhere in the city and you are tracked and discredited and credited according to how you drive. The game doubles as a music player and the Uranus HQ doubles as a jukebox. It's like Crazy Taxi.

General Overview
THE PROTAGONIST
Willy starts out as Street Willy, a cannabis dealing Rugby coach who spends his days delivering packets for various clients across the city for extra money. His coaching salary covers only his rent in a small apartment. This part of the game is essentially a sneak game as you try to avoid the attention of the police and surveillance cameras. You drive a Nepjetta and you fulfill various dealing missions and accumulate Kossy Dollars untill you can buy your next outfit piece, which upgrades your abilities. You start with tekkies and a tracksuit. Street Willy uses a slingshot to hunt Hadedas for food. His glasses allow him to see hidden messages behind billboards.
​
His UI shows his Face, asking for food - he has hunger - tiredness and anger. He constantly rants things. There is also a street map that he can pull out. Delivering a package is a strategic affair as you drive around. If you manage to tag a police vehicle with a tracking device, they show up on your map, similar to MGS. There are various police officers with different personalities. They work for the Uranus Police, ...then there is the Neptshwane Army which surrounds the city and screens people when they leave. You work with the one cop, a midget cop who is your source for weed.
When you get a call, you have to look on the map and navigate your wa
​
After you've bought the high top shoes, you gain the ability to run fast and up buildings. When you get the parachute suit, you get the ability to jump vast distances and parkour across the building tops.
​
And so different objects that Willy desire gradually upgrade him to forms such as Bapho-Willy (a Willy with Goat Horns and legs) to Dragon Willy, a gigantic flying dragon version of Willy.
GAMEPLAY DYNAMIC : Street Willy
Willy starts out as Street Willy, a cannabis dealing Rugby coach who spends his days delivering packets for various clients across the city for extra money. His coaching salary covers only his rent in a small apartment. This part of the game is essentially a sneak game as you try to avoid the attention of the police and surveillance cameras. You drive a Nepjetta and you fulfill various dealing missions and accumulate Kossy Dollars untill you can buy your next outfit piece, which upgrades your abilities. You start with tekkies and a tracksuit. Street Willy uses a slingshot to hunt Hadedas for food. His glasses allow him to see hidden messages behind billboards.

His UI shows his Face, asking for food - he has hunger - tiredness and anger. He constantly rants things. There is also a street map that he can pull out. Delivering a package is a strategic affair as you drive around. If you manage to tag a police vehicle with a tracking device, they show up on your map, similar to MGS. There are various police officers with different personalities. They work for the Uranus Police, ...then there is the Neptshwane Army which surrounds the city and screens people when they leave. You work with the one cop, a midget cop who is your source for weed.
When you get a call, you have to look on the map and navigate your way to the location through police laden traffic. You have been microchipped as a part of the city-wide quarantine, so whenever you approach the radius of a police vehicle, they can pick up your movement and switch on your lights. Then you have to drive correctly or else they chase you down. When you get busted, you lose money + the cops' circle of detection grows bigger. Some cops you can bribe....many. but you lose money.
​
When you get out of the vehicle you have to be aware of the prying eyes of the Police and normal security guards (who have a smaller detection circle) and also the Surveillance Cameras. In walk mode, you are able to tag police vehicles so that they appear on your map. When you act out of line after they've detected you, they get extremely aggressive, like Driver Survival Mode. Once they've busted you, there's a headline in the Uranus Gazette about the exact story - how many people died etc. Cops then have a much larger detection circle. Once they detect you they become alert and once you transgress they atack and coordinate.
You can drive out of line, provided you don't get spotted by cops or cams. They then coordinate to get you. The only way to escape them is to outrun them and hide.
So in the first demo, Willy does a deal with the midget cop in the cutscene, then he enters the vehicle (press X). He gets in and the music starts blaring and the car is vibrating., you get your first call for delivery. You pull out your map, gotta avoid the cops. So you ollow the map and then drive. SO the game is a strategic sneaking game to deliver weed. Feels a lot like Driver 1 during this part. Where you race. cops vision like in Commando Game. So tagging cop cars you can see where they see. Before that you have to see with your own eyes. There are a set number of Cop cars in the city. 150 - each have names and identities. Some cops have better stats than others, some are fat and lazy etc. Once you've tagged them, they pop up when you driv3 close to them. You can tag with your slingshot too.
​
The Uranus Police are EXTREMELY aggressive. It is a police state and they ENFORCE on behalf of Zubama. So the city is heavily policed and flooded with porpaganda and Uranus Entertainment.

a Super Excellent City surrounded by vast hemp fields.
