We always wanted to play a game which brings the best from the IT world not just to IT enthusiasts but to all people interested in computers, hacking and security. We wanted to enjoy hacking with enough realism, to be able to progress fast and yet not become lost in commands. We wanted our actions to have an impact that we all together can see and feel. To fully experience this hacking atmosphere, it was necessary to be able to share this game experience it with others - you. That’s why we created World Wide Hack with the hope to shift forward this game genre and show to even more people new ways of how computers can be fun!



World Wide Hack

Simulations are great for peeking into specific field and exploring some topic in practical entertaining way. This game is going to reveal hacking experience in living futuristic IT context emphasizing importance of cybersecurity. Surround yourself with huge amount of players passionate about technological progress and interested in influence of innovations on the whole society just like you are.

This text-based game has entertaining but realistic hacking and cybersecurity aspects which are set inside dynamic narrative. The feeling of being a part of deep story and complex universe is core of the player´s experience and engaging gameplay. Enjoy the futuristic atmosphere of science research center using quantum technologies to change the world as we know it.

More about the game...

You are given an opportunity to explore a huge open world through accessing the network of computers in QuanTech simulation. This simulation is pretty realistic, so you will be able to learn about individual persons, who have different jobs, friends and lives and companies with different problems and agendas. You will learn everything through their files (documents, chats, mails, images, special tools) on their computers or servers and use it for your goal. They can even reflect how you are affecting the simulation they live in.


Gameplay


Hacking consist of using hacking, security and analytic tools and services

You will work for example with exploits, dictionary attack tools, different viruses, ..., firewalls, antiviruses, jails, auto-tracking.., port mapping and network scanning tools, sniffers, encryption..). There are over a hundred of tools and programs. Services will run persistently on your computer also when you disconnect. This makes you focus not only on hacking attacks, but also on security and defense.



Using right defense strategies with most up to date software is recommended, hoping there is no security hole you don’t know about

You will complete experiments which are more challenging and complex the deeper you get into the network. You will need to upgrade your system, find better tools and explore network layers. But there are not really any levels or classes. It's all up to your skills, gained simulation experience and kit you built and are equipped with.

All experiments have consequences on world stability. You will be able to see the consequences of experiments on individuals, companies and the world state itself which will help us understand if our path is correct.

Providing experiments in simulation can be done mostly alone if you decide. In this case, it is really hard to be found by others. But you will need to take some precautionary measures to stay hidden. If you enjoy social interaction, we encourage our experimenters and you to work within teams. In some special experiments, it will be even necessary.

Other factions are aware of this, so be ready to encounter other hackers during performing experimental tasks. They will try to sabotage your effort or achieve the opposite goal, mainly if you are trying to do the same against them.

Creating a good game costs time and energy and it's hard to reach our goals without any financial help. So we are looking for some Patrons who like this idea behind project as we do and want to help us to make it in best quality and shortest time so we can finally play it!


Funding


Our team already gained some financial support to develop vertical slice from Slovak fund called Slovak Arts Council so also thanks to this we are are able to finish game. But we still need more money to cover expenses for following more then year of development.

Support us so we can finish all hacking and game mechanics, complete whole story, prepare epic content, upgrade graphic interface and make the game playable and enjoyable. And of course we need coffee to make all our ideas happen so every dollar is better than nothing!
