Default World Setting

Howdy. I am preparing a world setting (for GURPS). It will be a cyberpunk setting. I want to include (at least some) these elements...

Apophis 99942.
Sea Level Rise.
Disease.
Collapse of economy/governments.
Cults/religions.
Ethno syndicates.
Corporations.
Famine.
Unemployment.
Robotics.


One element I am sure that I am including is the impact of Apophis 99942 in 2036. Events preceding the impact, including the collapse of the world governments due to famine, disease, etc, resulted in nobody watching the skies. So when Apophis 99942 came around in 2036, there was no organization prepared to deal with it.

Sea level rises, potentially due in part to Apophis 99942 impacting the antarctic ice shelf, devastate the coastal cities. This leaves most of the traditional sites for cyberpunk settings unusable. So I am looking at the great lakes area.

I invite anyone with any thoughts to share them with me. If not in this thread directly, then as a PM, or potentially in discord or something similar.
