Hackfest

You start with an empty desk and a budget.

Order parts from Crapazon. Assemble the tower — every watt has to come from somewhere, every gigabyte counts, and without a NIC you're not getting online at all. Power it on, image an operating system, boot into HackfestOS.

Then go to work on CorpoMax.

What you actually do

• Crack firewalls to get a foothold on the network.
• Read the logs. Real employee names are in there, and tracing them is how you find the next way in — the puzzle is reading, not guessing.
• Solve your way deeper. Every layer of the network is a lock with a real answer.
• Seed malware that prints money while you sleep, then spend it on better hardware, which cracks faster, which gets you deeper.

The loop

Better rig → faster hacks → more money → better rig. Hardware is the progression system, and it's all diegetic: no XP bar, just a machine you built getting genuinely more capable because you bought the right part.

The whole thing is the OS. No menus over a game — you're operating a fake computer, and the computer is the interface.

A note on the art: the artwork here is AI-generated. I can't draw and can't afford an artist yet. Every sale goes toward hiring one and replacing all of it — the demo is free, so judge it on how it plays.
