What is Cyberpunk?

Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Huntdown is a really fun game. The setting is more "high-tech, low-life" than neon city lights but it's still cyberpunk. It's just heavily inspired by the 80s style of cyberpunk. You basically move from left to right mowing down enemies until you reach a boss fight at the end of the level. So basic arcade-y gameplay, but really fun.

Here's a trailer. And it's currently 80% off on both Steam and GOG.
