Fun game. Lots of nods to 90's-00's pop culture hacking.

I think it was a fun game. The games only real shortcoming is that it has absolutely no replay value. Once you beat it it's basically a game to uninstall, which sucks because I had fun. I would have been pretty upset if I had paid for this game, but I got lucky enough to catch it on sale for free. Should not be $3 if you can complete it in an hour and there is no replay value. Still a fun game though

I enjoyed this game. Its unique design makes it a bit tricky for a player to learn how everything works, but eventually I learned how to use commands, take notes, make connections between facts, etc. I wish there'd been more data to read and learn. However, I faced several bugs, when I could not type a command and had to restart and come all the way back from localhost to the last place. In addition, I could not play audio messages. I used headphones, speakers, restarted the game but could not listen to it. I had to look up for this puzzle on the internet. Despite these bugs, I loved the game.

Great game but poor story lets it down. Look forward to next game from this dev
★★☆☆☆
I tried to like this game, but ultimately it feels so rudimentary. No doubt my 25+ years experience with Unix colors my reaction, but I'm not expecting a perfect simulation of networking technology here. I'm prepared to accept a Hollywood-ified suggestion of the real thing. But you got a give me more to chew on than 5 commands at a time, and only one that makes sense at any given time. The essence of hacking isn't a command line, it's mastering a complex system of imaginary machine parts in your head. A good hacking game would simulate a system that the player learns to manipulate through experimenting with the parts they've learned you recognize. At the first the system must appear dauntingly complex, but as your expertise with the game's system builds you can recognize that your performance is building from your mastery. Unfortunately this game's system is too rudimentary to create these feelings in the player. Two hacking games I recommend are Uplink and Else: Heartbreak(); I don't blame you for publishing a novice effort, but I would fault you for charging for it. I expect a minimum standard of quality this game has not reached. You need feedback from your players now more than you need their $$$.
★★☆☆☆
Would love to try this game and I know I would like it, but I can't do anything as typing anything even help, hint or answer just says unrecognized command, so I can't even play it, would love to find a solution but can't find anyone else that has the same problem that has found a solution, so I guess I just won't get to play this game
