What types of science fiction works are there? At present, only Cyberpunk is known.

Steampunk: Describe the society where steam engine technology has been highly developed and applied. Decorations and tools are often based on Victorian style, including industrial scenes and rural scenes. All kinds of huge gears, mechanical levers, steam pipe designs and flying boat-like vehicles can be seen everywhere. Typical works include novels such as Extension of Difference, animation such as City of the Sky, Steam Boy and Final Exile, and game works such as Grandi Ya and Hiroshi Sakurai. Some steampunk works will use hypothetical magic machines instead of steam engines, but the rest of the designs still have a strong steampunk color, such as the game "Track of X" series.

Diesel punk: describes the highly developed and applied society of internal combustion engines and electric motors. Ornaments and tools are usually based on the styles of the two world wars and the period between the two world wars. Generally, there are all kinds of huge factories and towns, towering chimneys, criss-crossing railways, and all kinds of designs based on old cars and planes. Typical works such as Metropolis, the film raiders of the lost ark series, and the animated film Gundam Falling, etc. Because of the continuity of the times, there will be some works that rely on steam power in setting, but the overall style is close to that of diesel punk, such as the game sakura wars.

Atomic punk Atompunk: describes a society where atomic energy technology is highly developed and applied. Various portable nuclear power tools and weapons are very common, and there is often an eschatological plot, in which the world is destroyed by a two-stage nuclear war. Typical works such as the game "Radiation". The traditional school of Gundam also belongs to the atomic punk school today.

Cyberpunk, Cyberpunk: To describe a highly developed and applied society of information technology and cybernetics, there will be a lot of designs such as unlimited network applications, chip reformers, data people, metropolises with a large population and extremely dense skyscrapers, and the rule of large enterprises, which often has dystopian meaning. Typical works such as Ghost in the Eggshell, The Matrix, Gunn, Ryan, etc.

Biopunk: Describe a society where molecular biotechnology, especially genetic technology, is highly developed and applied, and there will be a large number of genetically modified organisms, artificial life bodies, gloomy research institutes and other designs. Typical works such as the movie "Close Call", the game "Resident Evil" and the original murder. The styles of such works often incorporate Cyberpunk, such as blade runner. Some works will also incorporate elements such as time travel, such as the game "ever 17".

Clockpunk: A society depicting the large-scale development and application of science and technology during the Renaissance. Because there was no modern industrial power in the Renaissance, power generally resorted to magic, which was between science fiction and magic. Some steampunk works will have a strong clock punk style, and the society described will be closer to the social forms of 16 and 17 centuries than in Victorian times, such as the "Raceway" series.

Spacepunk: A society that depicts human beings migrating to the universe on a large scale and gaining the ability to travel long distances in the universe. Generally, except for space jump technology, other designs are very close to atomic punk, such as Star Wars and Fort Time. There is a great coincidence with the category referred to by space opera.

Nanopunk: A society that describes the large-scale development and application of nanotechnology. It belongs to a new branch of Cyberpunk and Biopunk.

Dreampunk: works that are highly focused on describing neuroscience and even dreams. Inception and other typical works.

Punk Nowpunk: a new term invented by some people, which refers to a relatively comprehensive recent sci-fi work, and its characteristic is that it will involve current events that have occurred in recent years.

I remember that in the first half of this year, there was an issue of "Watching Movies at Midnight Edition" which made a special topic for this kind of movies. The title owner can search and have a look. (Based on Ghost in the Eggshell)
