That was totally IndieCade's decision and not the result of hacking into a few databases. Totally. We've been nominated for the Systemic Design award. What does that mean? Well: The Systemic Design Award honors the craft of leveraging randomness and algorithmic content or behavior to create unique and innovative interactions.
And that's not all! Apart from being specifically nominated for the Systemic Design award, we're also up for the Grand Jury Award, Jury Prix, Innovation in Experience Design, Innovation in Interaction Design, and Developer's Choice Awards! We wanted to thank all of you for your support over the course of the last year, and we hope we can bring home a trophy! If you want to catch the award ceremony live, it'll be streamed on the IndieCade Twitch channel on November 5th!

Hack into servers, beat security and steal encrypted data in a world where your identity is just another network address. An engaging story, agonizing dilemmas, and an easily accessible hacking system turn every player into a network hacker in Midnight Protocol.

Midnight Protocol is a tactical narrative-driven RPG set in a near future filled with labor automation, big data, controversial AI applications, legal gray zones, and the nebulous nature of online identity. You assume the mantle of a prominent hacktivist who has been targeted for blackmail by a shadowy branch of government.

The player interacts with their virtual environment through text commands, hacking into countless challenging networks. Character development and roleplay choices made during and in between missions affect the storyline and outcome of the game.
