Writing a techno-thriller about high-stakes geopolitics and financial warfare. Just finished Chapter 4 and wanted to share the premise with fellow sci-fi fans.
Hey everyone,
I've been working on a serialized cyberpunk/techno-noir novel called The Green Sovereign, and I just uploaded Chapter 4 tonight.
I wanted to write something focused on realistic network infrastructure and modern geopolitics rather than just flying cars. The story is about an engineer from Kharkiv who uses a coding exploit to siphon fractions of cents from Wall Street to fund a sovereign, tech-driven nation in the desert. In today's chapter, global intelligence agencies finally notice the cracks in the financial systems.
It's a 100% human-written project, drafted with a lot of research into high-frequency trading networks. It's completely free to read on Substack, as I'm just looking for honest feedback from people who love gritty, complex sci-fi.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the concept!

Soviet cyberpunk
A bit of a different take on the cyberpunk. While I don't like "soviet cyberpunk" myself, I think it's an easy way to describe the visuals of a game that I'm developing. I prefer using "soviet future punk" but it's still easy to see the inspirations of the cyberpunk aesthetics. What do you guys think?

Cine-Navigator
Hey everyone!
I have spent the last few weeks majorly upgrading my passion project, and I am excited to share the completely redesigned version. It is now officially called PLIXAR-VISIUM — a fully immersive, interactive movie database and cybernetic cinema hub built entirely from scratch using pure HTML5, CSS3, and Vanilla JavaScript.
The core concept was to completely reinvent the boring, corporate text-list browsing experience and transform it into a fast, lightweight, and responsive sci-fi terminal designed for true cinema enthusiasts.
Here is the complete operational overview under the hood:
Comprehensive Movie Database: Access a curated library of 200+ iconic films packed with detailed metadata, runtimes, precise ratings, and direct trailer integration.
Traditional Grid Library: A beautiful, dark-themed visual catalog featuring responsive movie cards with quick-access descriptions and personalized grading tools.
Smart Interactive Search and Mood Matchers: Use the digital dashboard to slice through the cinematic database. It features unique algorithms like Mind Scan tests, Double Feature selectors, Midnight Timers to fit your sleep schedule, and even a custom system that pairs movie genres with your snacks.
Alternative Analytical Views: For users who prefer a graphical approach to cinema history, the platform includes an alternative data-matrix canvas view. This module maps out movie duration trends against their release years across different decades on a unified visual grid.
Built-in Quality of Life Utilities: The terminal comes integrated with an ambient cyber-radio player, interactive cinema bingo mini-games, customizable neon glow sliders, and automated break timers for the perfect movie night.
Everything runs buttery-smooth at 60+ FPS on mobile devices with zero dependencies, zero ad bloat, and full privacy-focused local JSON backup support.

I would love to get your brutal honest feedback on the new UX, styling, and tools. What sci-fi data modules or features should I inject next?

Proto-Cyberpunk - set in an alternate 1989 Japan.
I am slowly making my way through the AI placeholder images and I am really preferring my own work. The soul is there, if that makes sense? That's me in the pic and a beautiful Toyota Supra with a cyberpunk-esq pushed up tail and quad exhaust. I spent a little too long trying to find a Japanese numberplate that it turned out I didn't need.
The game where this is from is a hacking adventure sim, set in an alternate 1989 Japan, it's called GLYPHIS_IO BBS: The Proxy Tapes 1989.
It aims to ask the question...
"What does the world need to be, before it becomes Cyberpunk?"
The setting is interesting as I see it as a proto-cyberpunk world. The conditions are in place for low-life, high-tech. Japan is not a nation is it fully annexed to the Americans after the Imperial line was wiped out in the second world war.
The American Pacifica Isles is a place of banned media, pirate radiowaves, underground artists and growing silent rebelion led by hackers, crackers, muscians and artists.
You can wishlist the game here and follow it's progress on Steam if you'd like. Linux, Windows and possibly Mac (if i can get over 100 wishlists for MAC OS).
Please excuse some of the older artwork over on the Steam page I am still getting round to replacing it all there too.
There are several cyberpunk mini games you as a hacker have to crack before you can play each of them. They include...
Cybertrain - a rail network management sim where you build monorails within a cyberpunk city.
Nexus Burn Velo Race - a cybercycle Tron inspired racing game with a heavy emphasis on career mode - something Wipeout never did enough of imo.
Mech Core Battle-Ready Titans - a mech style game, in a sort of mecha giant robot arena style of game, the setting is more cycberpunk than the actual game itself, but it's super fun.
And a an IRS mini hacing game, a propaganda inflitration mission, and a simple syntax style of coding where you can make your own brute force programs, trojans and viruses.
More than happy to answer any questions about this project or any of my previous games within The Civitas Universe of cyberpunk multimedia. Thank you!

"Timber!"
And here’s another one. I’m not entirely sure about all the designs I make, and I’m open to suggestions and Input. : ]
