Codeskull by Chloe Spencer

Drawing inspiration from classic video games, CodeSkull centers on an ambitious arcade gamer, Mick, who is one day gifted a floppy disc of an RPG game by her rival, Tommy. But when she plays it, she inadvertently unleashes a terrifying technological creature that can infest and overload any electrically powered object.
After their classmate meets a grisly end, the two must team up in order to save their small town—and possibly the world—from annihilation...
In her entry into the Totally Freaked! series, Chloe Spencer takes pre-2000s tech panic and gamer culture for a nostalgic 90s horror ride!

Character Notes:
Mick (14) - a tomboy teenage girl and latchkey kid who is heading into high school next year. She's not super intelligent, but she's ambitious but stubborn. She's learning to care more about her friends.

Tanner (14) - Mick's best friend, who is more awkward and quiet, and tends to go with the flow more often than she'd like.

Tommy (14) - Mick's rival, a sassy teenage boy who is proud of his Colombian heritage. Like Mick, he's also not the brightest, but when it comes to clapping back at insults, he's got a sharp tongue.

Cain (16) - a Black punk rocker and film enthusiast who just recently got his license. He's extremely intelligent, and although he comes across as a tough guy at first, at his core, he's very sweet.
