I don't understand how to play this game...

umu 2013-08-26 14:35

I really don't understand what's going on. I need a command list or something, right now I can't figure out how to do anything except start the game. Can you post instructions?

ghostik 2013-08-26 14:36

I just don't get how I can send packets :P . You should make some tutorial or something.

Sorry, folks! I forgot to include the command list. Please try it again!

megamasterx 2013-08-26 14:49

The lack of some sort of documentation or instruction is a dealbreaker for me. Snazzy graphics, though!

sheepolution 2013-08-26 14:54

This is really confusing. A list of commands would be nice.

Cool that you use a command line. Not cool that I can't figure it out properly and as I can see in the comments, no one really is :(.

I also find it complicated. I didn't really know what x meant. I figured out, that send has to take a number as parameter. So "send 2" sends green squares down the tubes. But sometimes nothing happens instead. Buy and deploy doesn't take numbers. "buy 2" says, that such a thing does not exist.

Great game, loved the gameplay, and I never thought about modifying the html file to add the controls, very helping. I never could seem to get enough currency to buy power up. I'll I understand I'm supposed to send packets I wasn't sure how I am supposed to know how many I should send. Overall it kept my attention pretty well though.

Fun! Not as nuanced as say uplink, but fun! I would really like tab autocomplete and more visible pricing for the powerups. Also the title looks like it says "owned in 18 seconds". Great work!

A little bit different.

cschwartz 2013-08-27 14:27

Good music and graphics. Gameplay could have used some additional explanation.

tehlulzinator 2013-08-27 14:46

I don't have a clue what is going on, are you supposed to play purely on the defense or do you have to attack too? Also is the bitcoins thing a joke, how do you get them ingame?

justi 2013-08-27 14:48

Too hard for understand game rules, maybe next time be better.

william_edwards 2013-08-27 15:36

I couldn't work out how to win at it; I'd make an awful hacker!

endurion 2013-08-27 15:40

The idea is an interesting one, the execution rather problematic.
I'm a fast typer, but it doesn't lend itself very good for a hectic game.

nizan 2013-09-09 20:45

I figured it out... I think... but gah, was too complicated for me - sorry :/

purefloat 2013-09-09 20:53

I really liked this game. It took a while to learn the controls, but it's super easy to pick up once you learn them. Really fun and innovative. I'm not quite fast enough though :)
