In search of developing more tactile, mechanical games in the future, I decided to work on something totally driven by satisfying interactions, effects and feel, without relying on narrative for my next project.

Three years ago, on August 13, 2015, a game I’d been working on for a few years was released. I mean, it was actually the August 14th for me, since I’m in Australia, but it happened all the same. In that time, Hacknet has been played by over 1.4 million people. That number being so huge was helped a lot by the two 48 hours free giveaways we did recently, but even those bumps aside, the success…

There were loads of really amazing entries to HackerJam - the quality and variety of the entries blew me away. I'm so impressed by the whole community, and am excited to see what's still yet to come. Without further ado, here are the winners: First Place: Hacker Wars by Admiral Joshua Once Hacker Wars hits it's stride (after a kind of slow start), it's absolutely packed with tension, intrigue a…
Added · Turkish translation! Thankyou to Serhat Çavunt for the excellent work on this! · FastActionHost daemon: <FastActionHost /> An optimized Action host daemon - this daemon does nothing except host delayable actions - but it is much more efficient at doing that than other servers. If you have lots of actions looping or in delay at once (more than 50, say) it might be worth moving them to be…

Hi all, I'm excited to finally announce the expansion's launch date: Hacknet Labyrinths will launch at 8am PST on Friday March 31. I want to thank you all for your patience and support along the way. Labyrinths has been a huge undertaking, and ended up much larger and more detailed than I originally planned. It's over half the size of the original game in most ways, and more than that in others…
Hi all, Right about now, I had hoped to be announcing the imminent release of Hacknet Labyrinths, the major expansion for Hacknet. Instead, regrettably, I’m announcing its delay until March 2017. As with anything where you attempt to raise the bar on what has been done previously, the development of Labyrinths has been a huge, complex job. I'm not satisfied with making 'more of the same' - I th…
