$9.99Retro Coder 2000
March 1991. Your brother Levan is gone, but his PC still boots and his mailbox still gets work. Fix code for clients, break into servers on a hidden network, write and share your own games on a programmable 90s PC, and follow what he left behind. Desktop or VR.

His room. His rent. His machine.
Levan has been gone for nineteen days. All he left is a 90s PC that still dials in and still gets job offers. Maybe the work pays the rent. Maybe it leads to him.
A real computer, not a menu
BIOS, floppy drives that grind, a dot-matrix printer that feeds your notes, a modem that screams on dial-up. Upgrade the CPU, video card and hard disk, and watch slideshows turn smooth.
Take his jobs
Fix clients' broken programs in a built-in language, crack ciphers, repair databases. Invoices pay late, clients get rude, some get strange. Keep your reputation, and keep the rent paid.
Go underground
Find your way onto a network that isn't on any directory. Break into servers through deduction puzzles, not luck: sniff traffic, read logs, crack passwords. Buy the tools, earn your Cred, and don't get traced.
A living 90s net
Dozens of sites, chat rooms full of arguments, newsletters, spam, dodgy downloads and the viruses that come with them.
Make your own games
2D, tile maps or full 3D in the same language. Pack them onto floppies and share them. Everything you make stays compatible with future updates.
Desktop or VR
Play flat with mouse and keyboard, or sit at the desk in VR.
Your PC belongs to VRK Systems. So does the world outside.
