September 2025 Community Update: The Refresh
Change is underway. Here's what's coming.

You play as a hacker. Your life path leads you into taking a gig that goes sour. As the world socially shuts down and moves to cyberspace in response to a global pandemic, you find yourself facing allegations of being involved in an arson attack. It’s your goal to investigate who the real arsonist is, how you were implicated, and clear your name – all while fighting law enforcement, mis-information, and ever-increasing threat of cyber terrorism.
Explore a large city and vast network of websites from the comfort of social isolation. Use an assortment of realistic hacking tools and analysis software to break into networks, find data, and solve puzzles. Communicate with other citizens via online chat and decide your own playthrough. Stop the threat of future cyber arson attacks. Do it all with blood-pumping music and dream-like visuals affected by your character’s state of mind.
This game is still in an extremely early stage of development. However, if you find the concept interesting, frequent development progress is being made and devlogs are posted to this site at the start of every month.
Additionally, you can join the growing community on either Discord or through the game’s forum. This is a great way to get in touch with developers, and to share ideas for the game.
