Hey, Ben here, I'm one of the developers of Hack Wars -- an MMORPG based around the act of digital warfare. We're currently in the later stages of beta testing it, and that's how I ended up moseying over to Facepunch Studios. We're trying to hunt down interested players -- Why is Hack Wars cool?
- Has its own in-game programming language.
- Unlike more hardcore hacking games you don't need to know anything about programming, designed for both types of players.
- All profits go towards homes for orphan kittens.
Any ways, if you're interested in trying out our game:

I'll keep an eye on this thread, since I'm not some evil robot.
Sounds pretty cool, welcome to Facepunch.
Welcome to Facepunch, and fuck yes i'm in :D

lol, 38 years... glad you're so loyal.
God this game is fucking AWESOME!
Looks kind of complex, and my vast IQ doesn't seem to be able to comprehend the manual. Then again, I only read the challenger API thing, so it may be easier. I'll stick to slavehack for a while, but if it does turn out to be a relatively easy to learn game, i'll probably try it out!

Yah we're working on better noob tutorials (interactive ones), it can be a bit overwhelming at first. It's not actually as complicated as it looks mind you, coding isn't actually needed, for instance, and there are lots of friendly mods ;)
I keep getting IP is invalid error.

In the game? I'm sure someone would give you hand in the game?
It would be wise to read the manual if you have any in game problems.

I'm selling some scripts, firewalls etc off for a low price.
Search for "Cyborgmatt" on the web browser search page.
Edit: My FTP is offline, reply to this post if you're interested in any of the items on sale.
This game is just awesome!
Looks awesome. I'm in. Where do I report bugs if I find any?
Welcome to facepunch, thanks for posting your game! For future reference, please don't sign your posts :)
I hacked somebody and apparently now all of their earnings are going to go directly to me. I feel giddy like a schoolgirl.
You may want to put a quick tutorial in the the beginning.

So, I read your description of the game and thought this would be simply amazing! But going to the play page shows that it's a java applet. A [b]web based[i] java[/i] applet[/b]. I was really hoping for something that didn't breathe resources like air.
Signed up. Love these browser games. And, I love how unique you made this one. Hope I do well :D

We like Java, lets us have Windows, Mac, and Linux users... Java has its fan boys and its detractors though ;) -- I'm a fan.
Orphaned Kittens?
HELL YES COUNT ME IN.

It's better than Flash.
Adobe didn't release a 64-bit Flash plugin for Linux.
This is pretty sweet so far. The other players are very helpful.
I am just suspicious of some of the starter IP's they give me. They're probably trying to get me there, catch my ip, then steal my stuff :ninja:

Have you got really cool stuff? -- count me in. I assure you all the IPs are just fake and for the game ;)
johny_heart is very helpful.
looks fun
Is the scripting language complex at all? If not, I might be interested.
The facepunch chat is no longer working, Someone set up anew one.
A Frightening Bear wants to run the load applet. I don't want a frightening bear to access my computer with Java. :tinfoil:
Just kidding, welcome to Facepunch. Looks like Slavehack might have some competition, although by the sounds of it this is in a whole other league.
