I like the word "burgerpunk" to describe our dystopia not as neon lights and cool sexy cyborgs but more the aesthetic of a DoorDash ad.

Amazing. What's more burgerpunk than making AI images about burgerpunk game concept art?

Coming to buggy early access 2025 on EA games subscription app

Prompt:

!physical game cover for latest game called "burgerpunk" inspired by boring, mundane real world problems. Collage of run down strip malls, boring office spaces, high gas prices and sad people stuck in traffic. "Super boring, 10/10 - IGN" !<
