The name makes sense in the end! Great writing, really keeps you going each level willing to push further to see what happens. I should have just downloaded and played it as a standalone since by the end I experienced a lot of stutter in the browser, but I was willing to overlook it. The music is really great top scores for audio, graphics are very cool, like everyone else I loved the hacking. Enemy AI is extremely forgiving in fact I almost couldn't force them to catch/kill me but it didn't ruin the illusion too much. High scores.

You know what now that I think of it I'm not even sure I implemented the game over scene so it's probably a good thing that they aren't too brutal lmao. Thanks for playing! And yeah I was really happy to have a narrative member on our team to really pull together the vague idea I had ! I wish the font issues popped up during development, that kinda surprised me after the deadline aaa
At first I thought the game hanged, had to press F on the message. I liked it! The enemies are fun to play with.
Very cool hacking mechanic and I really enjoyed the level design, they both look and feel good! Overall I think it is really well put together.
Great entry! Really well put together with the fun combination of stealth and hacking puzzles.
This game reminded me of Little Big Adventure. Although controls are a bit wacky (it may need a bit more polish on this), it looks like you put a lot of effort on coherent infiltration mechanics. Regarding graphics, they are cool and consistent along with the interface and this helped me get immersed into the experience.
The movement is for sure something I'd like to revisit. While it would've been trivial to make it snappy like one might expect, I was hoping to put a little weight in it, but you're right it's for sure unusual. It'd be something I revisit, cause there were a lot of things not touched on in regards to movement for sure. Thanks for playing!
The “console puzzle” design is simple yet quite original, love it! Also the level design is balanced well between complex and plain, the “offices” were interesting to wander through. The web version has annoying bug with sounds getting laggy from time to time. On the other hand, the story has managed to hook in the 10 minutes of gameplay! Overall, an awesome game for the jam!
Thanks for playing! The little hacking minigame was basically a simplified version of the ones from the recent spiderman games! Figured it was simple enough to implement in the time constraints and our 2D artist really did a great job in making it look fancy!
The web version has way more bugs that I'd hope, but there really wasn't a ton of time to test it before the deadline and that's kind of on me, we ran way up until the deadline there lol.
