It's called Cyberganked. I'm going to be honest with the group, it's an attempt to make the kind of game I played when I first got an IBM computer. It's a CRPG in the style of Wizardry, Might & Magic and The Bard's Tale. And (I decided after really gritting my teeth) it uses the same color palette that most CGA games did in the 1980s. I don't think it looks like any other game released in the last 20 years. 

I've been working on it since July of 2012 and I hope to have it finished before the end of this year. http://www.cyberganked.com has more details, but it's in the fine tradition of wandering around a doomed cityscape, trying to make things right. It takes place in an alternate Colorado and while there's no "magic," the equivalent system allows certain classes to use their Amigas, Apple IIs, Commodore 64s, PCjrs and Atari 800s to create similar effects. 

Thanks for reading!
