and..... #shadowrun is now available on consoles. #game #cyberpunk
I'm wondering if the hacker 'noghead' in the #cyberpunk #game The Ascent, was voiced to sound like Cory Doctorow deliberately.. Because if it was, it's a genius move. Instantly wins your characters trust.. and admiration. You're gonna need nogheads help as you infiltrate the happenings with The Ascent Group and your dealings with yCorp. Better cyberpunk Gaming than 2077 IMHO.
@ChrisWere You might want to watch this deep dive into Deus Ex Human Revolution & its comparison with the original... if you have like 3 & a half hours to spare.
Thorough but amusing in places #gamedev analysis by #hbomberguy
have been playing this #solitaire #card #game called Matrix Overload recently, quite engaging:
https://notwriting.itch.io/matrix-overload
#cyberpunk #hacker themed, played with a 52 deck of cards +2 joker cards.
It's about killing off the 'royals' by placing "program" cards into the "matrix" and causing an code "overload" to frazzle the royal.
Placement is everything!
If you can't place your programs in the matrix, then it becomes an ICE card enhancing the royals health - making it harder for you to win.
The third part of the Indigo Gaming #Cyberpunk #Documentary is up!
There's some interesting takes on #cyberpunk here:

If a pixel art stealthy #cyberpunk adventure is what you're after, you might want to take a look at #Disjunction
Noisy Pixel reviews the #game

The stealth mechanic isn't tediously slow, its pacey and you can get into a good rhythm - but it does require some planning and monitoring of patrol paths and keeping an eye out for lethal drones.
Plenty of cybernetic and tactical kit to help you out, but timing might be everything.
If you want a #cyberpunk #game that WILL run smoothly on your #PS4 or #XboxOne why not try #Dex
The second part of the Indigo Gaming #cyberpunk documentary was released the other day. Well worth a watch if you're interested in the genre and not just the latest contentious #game release.

This one covers the '90s. Looking forward to the upcoming Part 3.
BTW Part 1 is here

@HexDSL does a thoughtful roundup of his #cyberpunk week of vids, playing a lot of #games on #linux

Some others worth looking at Harebrained Schemes #Shadowrun series, Supergiants #Transistor, Spiders #TheTechnomancer, Zeboyd Games #CosmicStarHeroine, #EYEDivineCybermancy, #Dex, #Echo, #SatelliteReign, #SystemCrash, #NeonChrome, #VirtuaVerse, @silverspookgames #Neofeud
not forgetting the currently in development Trese Brothers #CyberKnightsFlashpoint
I found this #HOPE2020 talk by Pawel Ngei https://writing.exchange/@alxd about technological narratives really interesting and thought provoking #solarpunk #cyberpunk and #popculture

Enjoyed this take on #MaxHeadroom
"I am Become Satire, Celebrity of America."
Day 4 of #100DaysToOffload and I attempt to explain why #CyberPunk has been a lifelong inspiration/obsession and I fail miserably.

Also, shout out to #WeAreNameless and all the shadowrunners working that block.
The #TreseBrothers did a #reddit Ask Me Anything #AMA about Star Traders Frontiers & their upcoming #CyberPunk #game CyberKnights Flashpoint (CKF).
https://www.reddit.com/r/pcgaming/comments/eztigi/ama_we_are_the_devs_behind_star_traders_frontiers/
Asked about #Linux support ...
"Yes, Linux support is something we feel strongly about. All of our past Steam games have had native Linux support from day one and we're going to keep that up with CKF. Linux is included in the alpha phase, so its a full citizen around here"
The #TreseBrothers #CyberKnightsFlashpoint #Game #Kickstarter is open for pledges now!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tresebrothers/cyber-knights
Got me some #Cyberpunk future with plenty of replayability.
This could be the new incarnation of #Shadowrun we've been drooling for since Harebrained Schemes moved onto Battletech. #Tactical #Squad #RPG
One of a favourite #game developers the Trese Brothers are due to kickstart their new #Cyberpunk title on February 3rd. A followup or successor to their mobile Cyber Knights #RPG game.
Cyber Knights Flashpoint

Looking forward to seeing how this one develops if it has the depth & design of Star Traders Frontiers we're in for a real treat.
Being developed for Windows,Mac and #Linux.
This is a pretty good start to a #Cyberpunk #Culture #documentary

Looking forward to Part II.

Unique characters, party builds, pixel art cut scenes & a cracking #soundtrack by #HyperduckSoundworks
Watched #Upgrade #film again, I absolutely adore this #biotech #cyberpunk modern tale.

It hits all the right notes, has a suitable near-future augmented world & posits a new dilemma of when AI is integrated into our wetware.
Good setting. Good visuals. Good action sequences. Touches upon #hacking #VR #drivelesscars #armshotguns
Much more than I expected when I first set out to watch it.
