A cyberpunk hacker roguelike // wishlist: netspectre.net/steam
For the next update, we're working on the network visuals; seen here: new procedural background, transition effects for moving to the next stack, new looks for the database nodes, and the entire UI turning red when under trace // #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike #indiegames

For this #screenshotsaturday, here's new UI for the components' mechanics. The keywords expand on holding down [Alt] for more detailed explanations (0:35) // #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike

All of the components and modules in Netspectre now have their own unique visuals, so that it is easier to tell them apart visually on the market. Here's how the deck screen looks with all of the recent UI improvements // #screenshotsaturday #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike #indiegames

Progress on the component visuals. The hacker hardware in our world comes in bold stylish designs, as opposed to the the boring metallic gray that it would today ^.^ Plus the colors make it easier to tell the components apart // #indiegames #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike

A very wip sketch of the new look for the deck-construction screen // #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike #indiegames

Reworking the Netspectre contract selection UI. For some time we discussed whether to keep the contract titles at all, because they're there just for style and convey no real information. But the big style is the entire point of this game // #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike #indiegames

Netspectre is a hacker roguelike set in its own original cyberpunk universe. Get to be a hacker in a futuristic, hypercapitalist world! Infiltrate networks, build the best hacking machine, and conspire with your contacts. It's going to be great! Wishlist Netspectre on Steam: netspectre.net/steam

Databases represent sensitive data within the network, which translate to additional credits after you finish the run. Downlinking them costs resources, though, so it's important to evaluate how much that's worth jeopardizing your main objective // #indiegames #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike

Netspectre builds on a rich worldbuilding foundation, especially for a #roguelike, so one of the rewards for your progress is unlocking articles in Atlas, an ingame world reference that will explain various aspects of the universe in detail // #screenshotsaturday #cyberpunk #indiegames

With easy:1/2/3 and hard:1/2/3/4/5 difficulties, Netspectre will be both accessible to the players who just want to experience its cyberpunk universe without hard obstacles, and at the same time challenging to those up for some tough cybertactics gameplay // #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

Selecting the *ambition* at which you want to start a new playline determines the main story arc of your playline, among other things. There are four ambitions, with each one except the first having to be unlocked by completing the previous one in sequence // #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

To succeed in the final run in Netspectre, you'll need a powerful machine. And to earn enough resources to purchase that machine, you'll need to execute freelancing contracts // #indiegame #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike

Conclude the mission, then see the run resolution narrative. We supported Revenants in ambushing a corporate transport, so that's what we see in an illustration unique just for this scenario! What's the next contract up? Just five turns remaining // #cyberpunk #hacker #roguelike #indiegames

Inbetween the contracts, narrative events can take place in Netspectre to allow you to take a closer look at the universe around you. And because we love large-scale #cyberpunk art, this is how we made them look! // #indiegames
