People fighting to be able to afford anything, vagabonds in a wild west. The food that is available is near inedible because of the climate, but it's all they know. The elite of this sub-world stress that the outside is too dangerous to allow anyone out. Eating delicacies in their towers. Nobody knows if the outside is truly dangerous. Or if they are just keeping them there to isolate them for power.<h2 class="bb_tag" >FAQ</h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li> Wait, how is this different from the game jam &quot;DATACORE&quot;?</li></ul>The game jam &quot;DATACORE&quot; is a less polished DEMO of &quot;DATACORE: HAYWIRE&quot;.
