Quintin Stone's Scavenger is like a post-apocolypse (Fallout-style) themed IF. Not quite Cyberpunk, but it was fun IIRC.

A Mind Forever Voyaging is the definitive cyberpunk IF classic.

I was a beta-tester for that! (Scavenger not AMFV obv) - I didn't like it that much :(

Oh, interesting. A platform in the space between Inform and Twine could really work. (Also is that one of ours in the beta testing list??)

For other text adventure peeps, Sub-Q Magazine is a pretty good, pretty new publisher of IF works, though they do all seem to be disappointingly short.

Having played a few of the example games from Texture, I'm not that impressed. It's way more on the Twine side, with a bit of Quest thrown in. Not completely closing my mind to it, but would much rather play a proper parser game.

It feels like a gimmicky Twine at the moment but new media are welcome once they're debugged
