Some people say that the internet has a life of its own. Constantly shifting and full of secrets… some innocent, and some sinister. Developer and publisher Alp Arslan is offering players a unique taste of the dark secrets that lay beyond the screen in their new cyberpunk RPG Radiotext, arriving to Steam on September 30th of this year.

Over the course of the game, you’ll engage the mysterious “Radiotext” network— uncover the secrets of its members, parse your way through hacking-themed puzzles, and maybe even join the underground resistance— all wrapped in a nostalgic, 90’s themed interface. Radiotext offers all this and more:

• Retro Interface: Old terminal aesthetic, typing mechanic, authentic sound effects
• Unique Voices: A unique cast of characters, each with a story worth unraveling
• Branching Paths: Choices ripple across conversations, choose your words wisely
• Customizable UI: Colors, node placement, make the terminal your own
• Hidden Choices: Not every option is in plain sight
• Short & Sharp: A complete story in 3-4 hours
• Multiple Endings: The network never plays out the same way twice
• The Network Never Sleeps: The story ends. The network doesn’t, keep exploring, you don’t know what you’ll find

In addition to these, the game promises to host some unique technical aspects, including its own in-universe social media platform featuring posts from both players and NPCs, not to mention that:

“the demo and full game includes a modding guide, letting players quickly create their own stories, NPCs, and puzzles.”

After all, it is a game about hacking, isn’t it?
