PRESS RELEASE

S7 CYBERPUNK: THE INDIE EMPIRE BUILT FROM LOVE, CHAOS, AND ONE MAN’S REFUSAL TO QUIT


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE — ATLANTA, GA — November 2025

When most people say they’re making a video game, they don’t mean a whole universe.
But posey "John Posey III" does exactly that — because for him, S7 Cyberpunk isn’t just a game.
It’s a love letter. A legacy. A dare to dream bigger than sanity allows.


WHAT IS S7 CYBERPUNK?


At its heart, S7 Cyberpunk is a silly, soulful sci-fi fantasy RPG trilogy about humanity’s first settlers fleeing a dying Earth to build a new life on a strange alien world.
It’s funny, heartfelt, and built from scratch by
Posey — a solo developer from Atlanta — with a little help from his “besties for resties” and a whole lot of stubbornness.

But it’s also so much more.

S7 Cyberpunk isn’t a single title. It’s an entire transmedia ecosystem of seven interconnected projects that together form the Prologue Era — the 40 years of story before the main trilogy begins.

Each Early Access experience reveals a different slice of that timeline — playable, tangible, and completely unique.
From
comics and card games to full-blown video game prologues, every piece builds toward the same inevitable future: the launch of the final S7 Cyberpunk trilogy, which no one — not even Posey’s wife — will see until day one.


THE EARLY ACCESS ERA: 7 GATES INTO THE WORLD OF S7


“I didn’t want people to wait years to play something.
So I made the process of making the game into the game itself.” — Posey


The Early Access lineup covers every medium, each one a different testing ground for story, system, and soul:

  • S7 Cyberpunk: Proof of Concept
    Graphic Novel
    The first 30 minutes after arrival in orbit; The settlers’ first contact with Planet 7.
    Sets the tone, lore, and look of the universe.

  • Seneca 7: A Cyberpunk Odyssey (Beta Prologue)
    Video Game
    Starts after the graphic novel with Surface Exploration
    12 open-world episodes following r0-b3rt — the first settler to touch down.
    Tests terrain, survival, and physics.

  • S7 Cyberpunk: Tactics
    Mobile / Digital Game
    Timeline Fluid
    The digital hub for all S7 content — PvP, co-op, map creation, and player-made campaigns.


THE PHILOSOPHY: BACK TO WHAT MADE GAMES MAGIC


Posey’s mission is simple:
Recapture the 1990s feeling of discovery.
The joy of standing in line at midnight with your parents for that gold cartridge. The thrill of popping in a game no one’s spoiled yet.
 

That’s why no one — not even his wife — will see the final trilogy until release day.
The Early Access builds are temporary experiences — living, playable fossils of development. When the final game launches, the prologues will vanish forever, leaving behind only memories, recordings, and stories told by those who were there.

 

“Early Access isn’t just a test phase — it’s a love letter to the people who believed early enough to build the world with me.” — Posey
 

WHAT’S HAPPENING NOW


The Zero Edition Pre-Order is live until November 11, 2025 @ 11:11 PM (EST) — the second wave of humanity’s exodus to Planet 7.

This short run includes
the Zero Edition Graphic Novel Bundle (softcover or collector’s hardcover) + Steam Keys for both:

  • Seneca 7: A Cyberpunk Odyssey

  • 🛰️ S7 Cyberpunk: Tactics

 

Every Zero Edition buyer becomes part of the official Early Access era— the founding settlers of S7 Cyberpunk.

Once these runs close, they’re gone forever.

The Graphic Novel Zero Edition ships in December 2025, with the Collector’s Edition following in early 2026.
 

FROM POSEY, THE MADMAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN


“This whole thing started as a love letter to my wife.
Then it became a way to survive.
And now, somehow, it’s a universe that people actually want to live in.
I’m not building a product. I’m building a memory.”

Welcome future settlers! Seneca 7: A Cyberpunk Odyssey is a game of immersive story, robust characters, and most importantly: adventure. This project is born out of our passion for the Adventure RPG Genre and our desire to create one heck of a fun game (not to mention our entirely over-the-top obsession with alliterations and puns).

In the game you’ll play as a settler who, after a 7 year journey in cryosleep, just arrived at the Seneca 7 Spaceport orbiting around Planet 7, your Earth away from Earth! A taste of the familiar with the zest of a new beginning. Our cozy little planet is nestled in the heart of the newly discovered Seneca system. A place where your wildest dreams and ambitions can thrive.

As you exit the Seneca 7 Settler Space Ship you will be wearing a spacesuit and talk to the Spaceport receptionist to check you into the settlement. You'll turn in your Spacesuit and will be able to create a fully customized character that will become the main hero you play while exploring the mysterious new world of Planet 7 and the Settlement.

After you create your character you'll enter the space elevator that takes you to the planet's surface and into the heart of the settlement. Your adventure begins as you are greeted by the settlement's founder and mayor: Leon Muskratt.

Planet 7 is an imagineer’s playground. How you choose to experience the vast lore rich world of Seneca 7 is all up to you. We are excited to see how everyone's adventures will unfold. Leave the ruins of Earth behind and join us on Planet 7!

History

Howdy Internet Drifter,

Name's Posey and I'm the Captain of this exciting journey we're on to develop Seneca7: A Cyberpunk Odyssey, the next great Cyberpunk Adventure RPG.

We're a small indie game development studio (2.5 fulltime and a handful of part-time) located in Atlanta, Ga that came together February 2022 for our shared love of gaming and most importantly the Adventure RPG genre which has become a travesty of AAA titles and the ever growing flood of shovelware.

We've been setting the candle on fire all year to found the company, establish the team and most importantly deliver a demo of the master piece we're pouring all our blood, sweet and tears to create.

To kick off our one year anniversary we've created an episodic prologue that will be told in a double feature; The Alpha Prologue and The Beta Prologue. We're doing this as a way to produce content to be played and immersed into the world of Seneca 7 while we develop the game.

We're super stoked about the start of 2024! With us attending Steam Next Fest and launching a Kickstarter to engage with our community. If you are interested in what we are making drop a line and join us in our discord and let build something amazing together.

Stay dreaming,

Posey
