Flatline Hikyaku
Created for the 2024 7 Day Roguelike Challenge.
Inspired by William Gibson's cyberpunk novels and short stories, you play as the Courier - a mnemonic messenger on a dangerous job to deliver sensitive data stored safely in your neural implant. It'd be a walk in the zaibatsu park if it weren't for the razorpunks, Turing Police, yakuza ninja, AI cultists, and corporate death squads out to fry your brains.
Thankfully, your neural implant allows you to install weaponized datachips. Ranged attacks - like plasma, particle beams, and thermal strikes - as well as melee attacks are at your disposal.
Controls
WASD or arrow keys to move. Mouse for most everything else.

thanks so much for the coverage!
Pretty darn good dude! It might be a little on the gentle side. Also, I think I broke it by opening the axon before closing the shop. Just in case you're playing debugger. Thanks for posting!
