Major update1 Sep 2026HackeRPG 0.6 — the big oneThat was a quiet half-year. Here's why. You may have noticed we went silent for a while. It wasn't idle time — it was a full rewrite of how HackeRPG works under the hood. Since the last public build we've written over 55,000 lines of new code across the engine, the scripting runtime, and the tools around them. We wanted to do this properly instead of rushing it, and we think the results were wo…
Hi there, long time no see. I want to inform you that I'm still working on the game, but a new dungeon-crawler mode is taking too much time due to my day job, and there is still much stuff to do. Thus, I've decided to provide a smaller update with a bit of in-game content and bug fixes. The next update, I'm working on, will provide a few new game mechanics, which could refresh the game experien…
Phew, it took a very long time, but now you can try out the new update! The main changes are: · Interpreter Supports arrays, maps, mutable/immutable variables, built-in functions (drop, print), for and while loops, code blocks (all variables are removed from RAM when the code block is completed), ability to write single-line code with semicolon-separated statements, ability to call functions ev…
I'm happy to let you know that the short break in development is over! I've been thinking a lot about the future of the game, and here's a roadmap of upcoming updates: · New interpreter - you'll finally have a clear error log and a lot of useful language tools. · Gameplay update - no more monotonous arena chopping. Let's do some dungeon crawling. · Updated user interface - much more flexible an…
Greetings coders. I haven't heard from you in a while. Winter is coming to an end and most of it I've been working on a new interpreter (which will turn HackerScript into a fully valuable programming language) and preparing the game for the ability to create mods, on the basis of which I plan to create multiplayer. I won't procrastinate too long: at the moment game development is temporarily su…
Changes: · Fix autocomplete caret position. · Set default coins for newcomers to 1000. · Fix error sound when navigating from pause to IDE and vice versa. Notes: To set your initial coins you have to manually remove your progress file. It's only required if you've already running the 0.3.0 version. The path depends on your OS: Windows: C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Roaming\hackerpg\progress.bin Linux: /…

Hi everyone! I'm working hard on the new build and I'll finish really soon. Let me tell you about what you will get in the next update: Coding · Drafts - allows you to save your code even if you won't have enough SSD, but you can't use this code in game. · Repository - allows you to create and test code templates so you don't have to rewrite it each run. Quality of Life · No parentheses mode -…
