This game is very addicting! The concept is great, it perfectly fits the theme, and it's fun!
I like the old TV feeling you added here and the rules were simple and easy to follow. Great game all around!
Very interesting game, well done!
After the first few minutes money wasn't much of an issue and it reminded me of Simcity, as the packet traffic didn't feel like it could be solved, but I found it oddly relaxing.
Wow, this is such a well polished game, the tutorial was great, the music, story - everything was very good, well done!
This is probably the most fun I've had in the jam so far! The game starts off fairly slowly, but before you know it you're frantically trying to fix problems all over the place (nothing like a power cut in the center part of your early graph of connections to throw your plans out the window). Once you get past the middle game (maybe 10 minutes in) you're usually not going to have any issues, but overall I felt the difficulty curve was spot on (you always feel like you're sitting on the edge of your chair, waiting for a new computer to spawn, but it always feels doable).
But for me what set the game apart from many others is that it felt polished: there was a detailed (and humorous) tutorial, the UI felt good to use, the art style was great (I loved the retro look), it matched the theme well. But most importantly, it just felt *good* to play, it was enjoyable.
Really good job! This is a game to be proud of.
Interesting concept and very representative of the theme! Had fun playing and I loved the old screen effect. It made the game feel a lot more immersive.
A classic concept but nice connection to the theme. I once made the game bug with multiple clicks while having a cable and had to reload.
It's a good game, it feels very satisfying to see the net grow.
But after some time screen becomes very cluttered and it's hard to make changes.
Overall i liked this one. Good work!
Nice use of the theme. The pacing is great, waiting for the next PC to show up really keeps you hooked. The evolving music and CRT screen effect makes it all the more immersive. Great entry overall!
This is nice! I like the old TV effect too!
A really fun game, found myself playing this game for about an hour.
5 star everything, I'm amazed at how good this was, seriously amazing entry

This is seriously addictive, great work!
Such a smart design and fit with the theme!
The game is fun, and has a great use of a limited amount of mechanics to ensure that difficulty increases over time while still keeping the player aware of what he should do.
Well done !!
What a fun game this was! Great enty!
Iits woderful.
This is amazing.
sticky game. I played for a long time. I join the comments. The game is great.
This is such an excellent game! It's incredibly satisfying watching the messages travel through the network, although this tranquil fascination quickly fades after the random events start happening and you realise half the network isn't receiving any packets! The core gameplay loop is nice and simple with the events making it enjoyable to play over time as you have to constantly adapt to network conditions. It's also nice how realistic thing are represented in the game. Really good work!
My only feedback is that I think a constantly visible indicator of how many connections a node has left before it's full would be usefull since I found in frantic moments I was just randomly hovering over different nodes to pick the first empty connection rather than being able to think strategically about it.
Hi! Than you very much for playing!
Actually the connection indicator comes after 5 minutes in game :) But it may be a good idea to enable it from the start on.
That makes sense, I thought it only came on when things started to go wrong and by then it was already too late!
I'm gonna be honest, I didn't think I would enjoy this game, but man, it kept me in and grinding!
I actually got to what appears to be an infinite loop as I have everything maxed out and nothing can take me out, but that being said, it is still a wonderfully fun game!
Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it! :)
This is awesome, really strong concept, and good execution. Perfectly fit the theme. Well done!
