I like the distinctive aesthetic and the sound design was quite nice.

Good vibe with the graphics and a reasonably unique gameplay mechanic of taking over the thing that you shoot. Only two criticisms I have is that I wish your mouse cursor was visible because I kept accidentally clicking on other parts of the browser, and I wish that the final node in each part was a boss sorta thing with a lot of skulls surrounding it, even after you took over the rest of the system, just so the last shot was actually challenging. It was fun though, and you nailed the theme and the aesthetics.","format":"md","likes":4,"spam":"N"},{"id":1204546,"author_name":"BigDippers","author_uid":"bigdippers","epoch":1776857374,"text":"Cool game, took a second to get the hang of it, i think a small tutorial \/ how to play at the start would go a long way.

I feel like its got a bit of potential, if you couldn't go through the same node more than once, it would add some strategy element.. could make it harder from some sides etc. Anyway I liked the setting, visuals kind of worked for it and the music and sounds also kept the vibe.

But don't miss or it's game over !\n\nThis game was made by:\n- Hrbdnicolas : Programming, Game Design\n- KamikazeeSSJ13 : Programming, Game Design\n- Sid_ahmed : Programming, Game Design\n- DryDiamond: Assets + Sound Design, Game Design!\n\nThis is our first game made for a Ludum Dare. All assets and audio were home-made despite our lack of skills in design, we hope you enjoyed playing our game!\n\nWe intended to have several levels with increasing difficulty, but we ran out of time. Instead, we added three \u201cdifficulty levels\u201d to reach a router: the farther the router is from the starting point, the more binary skulls there are\u2014and the faster they are.\n\n[Screenshot From 2026-04-21 17-02-24.png](\/\/\/raw\/a41\/86\/z\/72029.png)\n\n![Screenshot From 2026-04-21 17-01-57.png](\/\/\/raw\/a41\/86\/z\/7202a.png)![Screenshot From 2026-04-21 17-01-14.png](\/\/\/raw\/a41\/86\/z\/7202b.png)","title":"NetHacking","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"capture":{"original":"https:\/\/api-jam.ludumdare.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/431501+431502+431503+431504+431505+431506+431507+431508+431509+431510+431511+431512+431513+431514+431515+431516+431517+431518+431519+431520+431521+431522+431523+431524+431525+431526+431527+431528+431529+431530+431531+431532+431533+431534+431535+431536+431537+431538+431539+431540+431541+431542+431543+431544+431545+431546+431547+431548+431549+431550+431551+431552+431553+431554+431555+431556+431557+431558+431559+431560+431561+431562+431563+431564+431565+431566+431567+431568+431569+431570+431571+431572+431573+431574+431575+431576+431577+431578+431579+431580+431581+431582+431583+431584+431585+431586+431587+431588+431589+431590+431591+431592+431593+431594+431595+431596+431597+431598+431599+431600+431601+431602+431603+431604+431605+431606+431607+431608+431609+431610+431611+431612+431613+431614+431615+431616+431617+431618+431619+431620+431621+431622+431623+431624+431625+431626+431627+431628+431629+431630+431631+431632+431633+431634+431635+431636+431637+431638+431639+431640+431641+431642+431643+431644+431645+431646+431647+431648+431649+431650+431651+431652+431653+431654+431655+431656+431657+431658+431659+431660+431661+431662+431663+431664+431665+431666+431667+431668+431669+431670+431671+431672+431673+431674+431675+431676+431677+431678+431679+431680+431681+431682+431683+431684+431685+431686+431687+431688+431689+431690+431691+431692+431693+431694+431695+431696+431697+431698+431699+431700+431701+431702+431703+431704+431705+431706+431707+431708+431709+431710+431711+431712+431713+431714+431715+431716+431717+431718+431719+431720+431721+431722+431723+431724+431725+431726+431727+431728+431729+431730+431731+431732+431733+431734+431735+431736+431737+431738+431739+431740+431741+431742+431743+431744+431745+431746+431747+431748+431749+431750+431751+431752+431753+431754+431755+431756+431757+431758+431759+431760+431761+431762+431763+431764+431765+431766+431767+431768+431769+431770+431771+431772+431773+431774+431775+431776+431777+431778+431779+431780+431781+431782+431783+431784+431785+431786+431787+431788+431789+431790+431791+431792+431793+431794+431795+431796+431797+431798+431799+431800+431801+431802+431803+431804+431805+431806+431807+431808+431809+431810+431811+431812+431813+431814+431815+431816+431817+431818+431819+431820+431821+431822+431823+431824+431825+431826+431827+431828+431829+431830+431831+431832+431833+431834+431835+431836+431837+431838+431839+431840+431841+431842+431843+431844+431845+431846+431847+431848+431849+431850+431851+431852+431853+431854+431855+431856+431857+431858+431859+431860+431861+431862+431863+431864+431865+431866+431867+431868+431869+431870+431871+431872+431873+431874+431875+431876+431877+431878+431879+431880+431881+431882+431883+431884+431885+431886+431887+431888+431889+431890+431891+431892+431893+431894+431895+431896+431897+431898+431899+431900+431901+431902+431903+431904+431905+431906+431907+431908+431909+431910+431911+431912+431913+431914+431915+431916+431917+431918+431919+431920+431921+431922+431923+431924+431925+431926+431927+431928+431929+431930+431931+431932+431933+431934+431935+431936+431937+431938+431939+431940+431941+431942+431943+431944+431945+431946+431947+431948+431949+431950+431951+431952+431953+431954+431955+431956+431957+431958+431959+431960+431961+431962+431963+431964+431965+431966+431967+431968+431969+431970+431971+431972+431973+431974+431975+431976+431977+431978+431979+431980+431981+431982+431983+431984+431985+431986+431987+431988+431989+431990+431991+431992+431993+431994+431995+431996+431997+431998+431999+432000?authors&parents&superparent"},"object":"objects\/sha256\/d8\/d8d012ff7c63566789251c446be659808039d8fe092d48fb21681bc99b8dcc0e","record":"shard-1\/json-live-urgent-v3\/records\/38620d9503efa42db5164f2d04c9ec7930ff933948d2b2af646ae19054efa416.json","sha256":"d8d012ff7c63566789251c446be659808039d8fe092d48fb21681bc99b8dcc0e","source":"https","stored_at":1784022564}}
