Hack the planet!
Interesting concept! I did struggle a little with the hacking stuff though, maybe needs a little tutorial? (or maybe I'm just dumb lol)

Hi, thanks for such a feedback ^_^.

I will try to add a tutorial in the next update.

What kind of hack are you referring to?

 If it's a work around, then it's just rewriting words, 

If you mean library, then you need to decrypt words encrypted with Caesar cipher with fixed indentation (A=d, apple = dssoh, you need to write the decrypted word on the field, for example apple), 

if you are talking about the final hack on the player's PC, then you need to do the same thing as the decryption in the library, but with random indentation (it should be displayed (if not, tell me about it).

I will be releasing updates for the game in the future 


bye :)

Ahh I figured it was just rewriting words (the work around), but I seemed to be failing the first word for some reason, then getting kicked out at the end with something like 7/10. I wasn’t sure what I was doing wrong, but knowing that I was doing the right thing makes me feel more confident about it. I’ll try it again soon!

Thank you for the explanation and well done on getting the submission in!

You can get kicked out at 7/10 or other values, the counter is not properly implemented, but I will try to fix it.

When you are thrown out of the library/work means that you have used up the number of available spellings of words (at work you can just restart, and for the library you need to earn money again (if you do not have any left)). In the library it is made for the fact that it would be impossible to pass the game by earning only 10$ at work, and had to constantly work at work, and in the office I do not know why the limitation on the number of words :D.

If you throw you out on the hack the final computer, then there is an error (in the decryption) and you need to try again (you can go there as many times as you want, nothing will be spent), but to use the computer you need to get 2 points of knowledge (upper right corner), it will take a long time to do, then I will make learning faster.

Have a good game and thanks again for the review ^-^
