DataJack is an upcoming 2D cyberpunk stealth action / RPG game which has been under development for four years. Set in the year 2030, following the collapse of nation states, the world of DataJack is run by megacorporations who recognize no rule of law beyond sheer military force. The game follows the career of a corporate mercenary who hires out his abilities as assassin, hacker and gunslinger to the highest bidder.
 
 
Music is being provided by the ever-funky Apel and we may eventually release the soundtrack as a separate download.
 
 
Game features:
 
 
- 28 unique, modifiable weapons: from crude shotguns to railguns
 
 - Gadgets including remote explosives, EMP grenades, shurikens, and more
 
 - Three factions and three different endings
 
 - Cybernetic limbs and implants which give stat bonuses
 
 - Guard AI which investigates, engages and pursues suspicious persons (you)
 
 - Isometric pixel art graphics
 
 - Destructible walls and terrain
 
 - 30 planned missions

Looks, sounds, smells and tastes like Shadowrun mixed in with a bit of Syndicate -- and god damn if this isn't tickling my fancy right now.   There's no release date yet, but it's been in development for over four years and the devs posted that it's "coming soon" -- so let's hope soon is soon and not later  
 
 
Thanks to Roger_Young for letting us know

						It looks cool but I wish it wasn't in the increasingly popular 8-bit graphic style.  That's starting to get old for me.
