Quadrilateral Cowboy is a hack-tical heist game from Blendo Games which will release sometime this year. It calls itself "twentieth-century cyberpunk," and so far it's really hard not to get caught up in its old-tech nostalgia. Please direct your web browser to Quadrilateral Cowboy – Brendon Chung's latest game takes things back to BASIC for more (56.6k modem recommended).
