Hypnospace Outlaw

Explore a bizarre, retro internet in Hypnospace Outlaw, a simulation where you enforce its strange digital laws. Browse simulated web pages, track down digital outlaws, and customize your own corner of this eccentric online world.

The Mac build is Intel-only (x86_64) and runs on Apple Silicon through Rosetta 2 translation — it's a Mac app, but not a true arm64 native one. Expect a ~10–15% performance tax versus a real native port.
