Who likes biopunk?

[Ikagura Ikagura]

Since it's the right season I wanted to talk more about one of my favourite sub-genres which is often close to horror (thanks to Resident Evil and even Jurassic Park's novel).

No need to have body horror (even if it's commonly associated with it but you can argue that MGS1 had biopunk elements while not being like RE) but you can still have a feeling of dread from genetically engineered things rather than cyberpunk machines.

I see your Bio, you're a Punk
I'll let myself out now

What is Biopunk? More importantly you wouldn't consider BioBroly to be Biopunk would you?

I can start with BioShock for starters

A subgenre similar with cyberpunk but with genetic engineering over implants.

Maybe? I barely remember him.

One of my favourite films is Dark City (which deals with memory alteration) and my favourite game is the first BioShock. BioPunk is so underrated.
