Wildcards Used
All 3: 1) BREATHTAKING: The desktop backgrounds are scenic views. 2) NEXT: The player is given a new fake ID and computer every time surveillance tech catches them and they ‘die’. 3) DEAL WITH THE DEVIL: If surveillance tech catches mildly suspicious behaviour that isn’t immediately incriminating, they will offer the player a deal to turn in any Underground Hacker Movement contacts.

Game Description
You are recruited by the Underground Hacker Movement to look into Global Government secrets. But beware, your surveillance tech locker is not 100% foolproof. Race against the clock as you research, social engineer, and hack your way into Waddlemar Warring’s email!

This makes me remember the times when I had to hide my gaming tabs from my parents when they walk into my room and I was suppose to be doing HW. Great game though!

I had a lot of fun! I couldn't figure out the last code, and I'm suspicious it was because I said the wrong to the character you say things to (vague spoiler-free explanation)? It looks great, feels fun, and makes me feel very underground indeed! Great work!!

Glad you had fun. Haha, maybe he’ll tell you next time 😉

I really appreciate games that go in a different direction than usual. Nice, unique approach. Kind of reminds me of Her Story with how we interact with the interface. Love this.

Developer

so sad for the missing audio due to power outage. it's a very beautiful, well thought-of and well-written little game! well done, and congrats on your first! :)

Thank you very much! It was a ton of fun to write and draw and I can’t wasn’t for us to incorporate the music, the SFX for the ad and surveillance is amazing.  Haha for some reason 3/4 of our team members had power outages, luckily for our programmer it was just 1 minute. Just like the underground hacker in this game racing against a timer, I was racing against my draining battery and spotty network to upload art 😂
