Clearly DreamWeb, it doesn't get anymore bleak storywise than that.

DreamWeb seems to be a perfect match here.

DreamWeb
Graphic-wise it's very much proto-Hotline Miami but much slower and with a stronger very dark and gritty cyberpunk adventure focus instead of fast paced action.

Dreamweb was also a very nice game not only in terms of violence, but this was a rather atmospheric game. IMO this also was one of the inspirations for Hotline Miami, despite the games being completely different gameplaywise, but the atmosphere and aesthetic is very similar.

It played the hell out of this game on my trusty old Amiga 1200 and loved every dark second of it.

I wondered the same since the similarities are really striking, beside the much, much slower pace of DreamWeb compared to Hotline Miami. Beside the obvious top-down perspective, even in terms of (gritty) atmosphere and it's fatalistic story both games are very similar.

DreamWeb for Amiga and PC
I played it on Amiga, but the vid I used for the webm seemed to come from the PC-Version judging by the poor sound of the original video.

I still think this was one of the many inspirations for the Hotline Miami games, despite DreamWeb being extremely slower gameplaywise in comparison, since this isn't an action game but rather an adventure.
