What a treat!

Weve hit the 80% funded mark! THANK YOU!

If were *exact* about it, were 81.355% funded at time of writing - backers have funded us to the tune of 16,271! Theres just 8 days to go for us to raise the last 3,729. A quick reminder: its an all-or-nothing campaign, so we absolutely must hit the 20k goal in order to receive the funding. Help us get there by continuing to share the campaign in any way that you can.

Real life trickery

We hope you enjoyed yesterdays surprise character reveal!

Hackers and hacktivists have become iconic figures in recent times, making a huge impact on the public dialogue around data privacy, information security, freedom of information, whistleblowing, mass surveillance, and digital rights. Having real hackers in the game is an opportunity for players to dig into the themes of the game in a more meaningful way. After all, their stories helped inspire and shape OFF GRID. Our halloween themed scare is all about these scenes from the OFF GRID intro...

Each represents a real scare that happens regularly. They are not fiction. They happen. Governments really do smash their way into homes (or use trickery to gain access), and bundle away teens and other souls with little, poor, or even no substantial evidence. The people we are featuring in the game have been through this, and theyd be the first to tell you thats a trick-or-treater you dont want knocking on your door. So whatever you do this Hallows Eve - stay safe on the interwebs!

Help us reach 100% funded!

If you havent backed OFF GRID yet, what are you waiting for?! Go ahead and treat yourself - it will help us make this game the best it can be, and shine a light on the aforementioned issues. If you are quick about it theres still some early bird 14 copies available as an exclusive to Kickstarter! SO BACK NOW! Just 8 more days to go! Happy Halloween and THANK YOU! The Off Grid Team

Off Grid is a 3rd person stealth hacking game where data is your most powerful weapon. Off Grid forgoes combat for hacking tools and ingenuity, and is completely moddable.

Gameplay utilises unique mechanics that allow you to manipulate the world and people around you with the data they unwittingly leave behind. It’s a stealth game where the player can truly hack and manipulate objects in the environment.

Players, modders, and hackers will be able to use the game to create new and interesting levels with stories about surveillance, hacking and the internet of things.

Features:

Stealth and hacking gameplay based on use of data and environments rather than weapons and combat
Hack into lifelike simulated networks and data with realistic hacking techniques and tools including SSH, sidejacking, and social engineering of the AI
Contemporary storyline and missions related to real-world events surrounding data privacy and mass surveillance
Fully moddable content encouraging players to create new and interesting levels, whether complete fantasy or mimicking hacking in the real world around them
