Out of the embers of the \u201cGreat War\u201d, sprawls that covered hundreds of miles began to grow. These sprawls all have their story to tell, but there is one city in particular, CItyPunk, that has stories unique to its location in North America. One story involves one loner that has just started hacking to survive in this high tech, low life city.<\/p>\n The player character, \u201cRonin\u201d, starts off in the game as a loner just trying to get by. His roommate threatens to kick him out if he doesn\u2019t get his act together and start contributing towards the rent. The player\u2019s roommate recommends that he talk to a local thug about doing some odd jobs. You find out soon that you have a particular knack for hacking computer systems, and find out that there is a need for that line of work, even though the burn out rate is high. This is where the game begins\u2026<\/p>\n <\/p>\n “It can also be argued that DNA is nothing more than a program designed to preserve itself. Life has become more complex in the overwhelming sea of information. And life, when organized into species, relies upon genes to be its memory system. So, man is an individual only because of his intangible memory… and memory cannot be defined, but it defines mankind. The advent of computers, and the subsequent accumulation of incalculable data has given rise to a new system of memory and thought parallel to your own. Humanity has underestimated the consequences of computerization.” Please email me with comments or questions at ronin@citypunkgame.com<\/a><\/p>\n Website: http:\/\/www.citypunkgame.com<\/a> Languages: Java, Lua.

\nThis is a future in which there has been a slow recovery from the Great War. Cybernetics and robotics have all practically been banned because the brutality of having war without the human conscious guiding the robots, without emotion. The other issue that plagued those using robots during the war is that the robots that were remote controlled were easily hacked and turned on their own. World society has moved to biological solutions including cloning to solve their problems and have put strict laws and regulations severely restricting the use of cybernetic technology.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
