In a nutshell instead of a computer running off small PCB's and transissters (lamens) - you'd replace the copper circuitry with large copper pipes and the Mosfets or similar transisters with the old Bulbs from yesteryear. Oldschool representing new-school. Cyberpunk is a bit more tricky but its basically going forward a leap - instead of human and organic technology, you'd have instances of android, cyborg, "bio-android" - wouldn't really need to be that everyones part robot but more like the consequences seen of it. Cyber"punk" would be the people who are using this scifi state of affairs of robots and human body mutilation (where its not needed in most cases but just greedy folk) and use it to further there means - whether that be taking over bodies to overthrow the status quo (Ghost in the Shell) or being manipulated through means out of your control (going mentally unstable through losing your body i.e. A.D. Police). Bit of a crappy explanation but hope at least the implied meaning comes through.

Might look into this game when it's released! The multiplayer looks ok, but I’m more of a cyber punk fan, not a steam punk.
