40 souls is a tribute to cult classics like Twisted Metal and Vigilante 8 — games that once defined the vehicular combat genre. Today, the genre is almost forgotten, but we believe it still has the potential to rise again. Our goal is to bring back the raw energy of chaotic car battles, while adding a modern visual language, narrative depth, and roguelike mechanics. It’s an experiment in blending nostalgia with contemporary design — from aesthetics and worldbuilding to gameplay ideas.
