Squally is a 2D multi-genre game that teaches video game hacking -- WITHOUT boring lessons, lectures, nor the need for prior experience. Instead, Squally teaches hacking through fun engaging puzzles where learning is a bi-product.


A 12 year old should be able to complete the main storyline in this game. For the more hardcore players, there will be more challenging side content. Topics such as data types, data structures, bin/dec/hex, and x86 assembly are gradually introduced through puzzles and gameplay.

Devlog 8/31

This game has actually been in development for several months. A good way to start this Devlog is to share a link to how we built the most technically challenging part of this game: https://medium.com/squallygame/how-we-wrote-a-self-hacking-game-in-c-d8b9f97bfa9...

There's a lot planned for this game, but it's late here, so I'll leave the rest of the details for another date :)
