Congratulations for the game! I loved how you related the mechanics and story to the theme. Rated <3

If you are interested in Tower Defense, check out our game. A tower defense where you can control only one tower at a time.

THAT WALK CYCLE IS BRILLIANT (AND THAT COP IS BRILLIANT TOO)! Very original game, the music is good and the humor is on point. After a while it starts to feel a little bit repetitive, but I'm not sure how you can add some variance to the gameplay. That 's something for you to think about :D Other than that, great job!

Submitted

I would like to see this mechanic applied in different levels because it might feel repetitive after some time. Unique idea and style. Good choice of music. The game has the potential to be something greater ;)

Brilliant. I love how the dialogue actually makes the game more difficult too, you want to read it all so much it distracts you from your task! Also - that walk animation! Very unique take on the theme. This is great!

Submitted

Hahahaha had a great time playing this! Great animations as well. Nice job!

Omg THAT walk cycle  :o ! Definitively points for originality here and humour was spot on !

The gameplay totally fits the theme, and even with one button it never felt repetitive with the whole "match the letters" thing it's a neat idea, and the segway cop is hillarious, really dig the graphics here

don't know what i could say more.

Congrats dude  !! 10/10 would hack again !! :)

The animation of the main character and the "very fast" policeman hanged me!

Good work!

Thanks for playing man <3

I'm dead. Hahahaha, that was hilarious!!! Very good game, I loved the drawings, the monologue, the ending, the walking animation... It was all pretty funny! I feel like there were too few gameplay elements, but it made up with humor.

Good job!

This is a cool take on typing games. I can't recall any that are based on common letters. The art is retty hilarious. That dude's walk made me laugh. I got a time of 164.67 seconds... no idea if that's actually good or not. Very entertaining entry -- nice work.

Developer

I ended up leveling the volume down but if you listen closely when he's walking fast he's making little grunts as he walks ;)
Thanks for playing!

Wow. Your game remind me many childhood classical game.I like your art style Lets me remember many things.

Submitted

Fun concept with neat execution!  I like using the text on top to help divide your attention as things start to get going faster, as well as giving you something to do while waiting on the earlier parts. 

It'd be nice if the difficulty scaled a bit to make the earlier parts go faster if you're solving them quickly as I found myself getting a little bored waiting for the dude to make his way close enough to the next hacking puzzle, but the later parts of the game get appreciably hectic!

Developer

That's a really good point, if I were to do it again I would speed it up after you get an answer right. Thanks for playing :)

Submitted

Love the hacker, great job on the personality. Fun take on the theme, great entry.

Thanks for playing!

That was hilarious! It's a game meant for r/masterhacker! took me 168.93! Great game!

Developer

If you think I'm a kid, then you can. But I don't hack because I think it's cool. I hack because I lost someone close to me.
Thanks for playing :)

Submitted

Very nice theme song and stylish really make I feel like hacking stuff (but using only one button lmao). Good work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you! The music is actually by Supervanz of gamediary.net :) 

Submitted

Unique gameplay and that graphics :)

Wow, this is really good, it 's the first game I've been willing to give 5 stars to across the board! I love how simple you kept it, really takes advantage of the theme to create something compelling and stressful. Love that goofy walk cycle.
