Description

Experience the hacker's side of cyberpunk in Cyber Sentinel! This design-based puzzle game features a complete visual programming kit for designing your own viruses.

History

In college I was introduced to the works of Alan Turing - great British pioneer of computer science, logician, cryptoanalyst and philosopher who helped decrypt nazis' Enigma. To be specific I was interested in diagrams of his universal state machine. Right away I started to thought if it could be used as game base but I didn't got into gamedev in that time. Years later when I decided I want to make games instead of working in corporations I started from making games during game jams. One of them was itch.io's CyberPunk Jam and this was the time I got an idea how to implement those diagrams - you're a hacker in 80/90' cyberpunk future using them to program viruses/trojans that steal data and avoid detection.
