DATAMINER

can someone explain what the lattice does? i bought it with the venus but it doesnt do anything??

hey, love the game! i might be missing something, though. i'm stuck trying to figure out how to progess to servers requiring t1 and t2 access. i'm employee level C7 and i have all the hardware upgrades. i've been grinding for about a week and have tons of money. what am i missing?

thanks for making this game! i really like it. 

the art is gorgeous, the storytelling is really nice too. i didn't play too much of it, i did 4 server runs but the game is just too slow. i dont know when im supposed to pull out of the minigame. i feel like i should milk each one to its fullest but i dont feel like there is much of a change between each. the powerups dont feel intuitive enough that i keep needing to hover over and read them. im not entirely sure when im going to get suprised by more blocks or if there is anything to do besides hovering over them. i really want to keep playing but the game itself, outside of the aesthetic and how professional it all looks, just does not speak to me. i saved my file and il revisit it. others seem to agree that its just painfully slow. i feel like this aesthetic would fit a different kind of game much more. the breakout style gameplay in its current form feels like a slog. the blocks are not meaningfully reactive to your reading. there is no strategy or combos outside of consumables, which arent.. really.. my thing, but im sure they serve their purpose in the later parts of the game.

anyways, yeah. it just must be faster. at least if the game does slow down progression wise, make the breakout aspect more interactive and satisfying.though i feel like the visuals of this game are AAA quality and i feel like i should have to pay to view it let alone play it. top notch.

The ability to delete expired Warp mails would be great. One of my quests is getting buried under them.

Progress is quite slow am i doing something wrong? Also on training server insight level 3  it said +300 memory on start but i dont get it is it bug?

as much as i would LOVE to play this game and i am really interested in the gameplay and concept - as someone with poor eyesight / issues seeing, i cant actually get past some of the beginning. i simply cant ready what it says and i feel like it draws away from my experience because while i am interested in the story, i have no idea what is going on because i cant read any of the text.

the idea is super cool. The atmosphere the errors at the beginning, wow. Unfortunately the gameplay is pretty lacking, progression is slow and very repetitive

I'm absolutely loving the new build. There's many utilities I dont quite understand yet,though. Also, could you please tell me how to obtain the T1 and T2 auth? I've been stuck for quite a while with no progress because of those :c

I just started the new build, I already adore the new direction!

Security upgrade doesn't seem to do anything with the new update. The visual effect on the detection bar is gone.Did the mechanic change?

apart from mining things in game it also mines crypto on your device!

Why is nobody discussing the fact that there is a WHOLE APARTMENT outside of the program??? (Also, what are the solutions to the doors?)

I know you aren't supposed to play this game on mobile, but you could play through most of it without a keyboard. Now with the new update the game crashes whenever i try to do something on the first server. I play it through itch.io website if that helps

The game doesn't work thru the itch.io app on desktop, it crashes the moment you get the first file in the tutorial, so I had to play on the web version.

It's good, but I have some questions, like how does the detection work? Sometimes the bar seems to fill up faster. Secondly, what are the "Special blocks" that RF noise gets emitted from? Thirdly, how do "busy signal" and "standing signal" work? Do you have to use them right at the start for them to work, or do they lower the detection meter? And lastly for now, are the other consumables permanent during the run, or do they have a time limit? Some feel like they just stop, but that also could just be me

any save codes i can see?

plus, we need mobile support.

I really, really want to love this... And I guess I do, but it doesn't love me back?

Here's my problem with it: it's _glacially_ slow. The permanent upgrades feel like a very, very small bumps, inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. The "time +10s" bonuses on items - unclear, what exact time? What "read rate"? The speed at which the uncovered data is downloaded into your kit? If that's so - those seem pointless, never once been caught wishing "darn, if only I had more data rate!". (And I'm something like... 12 hours into the game now)

The "fast-forward" consumable seems pointless as well - tried it once, came away with almost no data.

The "liquid cash" stuff is... Interesting. It's nice to be able to spend money to dive deeper, let me climb all the way to row 560 on one run, but you actually lose more money than you gain that way :D had to throw away so much data on the way there, because otherwise "overencumbered" debuff to "getting caught speed" gets ya. The liquid cash that's the other way around, making money off mining - think those typically cost more than you can mine with them :D

B.Reader is not really viable. Tried pouring every upgrade into it, only got to, like, row 230. Compared to arc scraper, that can fairly easily carry you to 400 just on its own.

Deep dive is pretty much mandatory :/

Good stuff (aka minor_incentive :P)! Atmosphere, the vibe is positively magnetic. It really pulls off the "dark corners of the web" theme. The first 15 minutes, when you can decide to NOT turn in your first hard-scraped data for a quest and instead sell it and buy some trinkets - clever! Even "lorem ipsum" fillers here and there add to the tone. And all that magic before any sound or music in the game, massive kudos there. When you really pump your run and the arc goes ham, buzzing with crits four rows and there are bursts of explosions, and plasma is chewing the whole perimeter through a hole burrowed through by the drone - OOF! Feels good.

Overall, the weakest part of this game is meta progression. "A game is a series of (preferably interesting) choices" - right now all the interesting choices are within the run, and there are next to none outside of it. Man, I really, really want to love this... But it does not love me back.

Using FFWWDD framework:

Frustrating - meta progression seems to get stuck fairly quickly, you hit a ceiling, you bought out all the cool equipment, you jump on a server with a familiar set of consumables in your kit, and it's just... grind. Same run, every run.

Favorite - the aesthetics, and how the numbers go brrr when you pimped your mining operation within the run

Wanted - wanted to have at least some upgrades to my utilities to be permanent! Let me pick a tool to start with? Or several? (no, scraper consumable doesn't count :P)

Wand (if I had a magic wand, what would I change) - aside from "meta progression that's enjoyable", and obvious sound+music, I would really dig more complex playing field. Instead of just a singular well where blocks fall, it could be a maze that you're trying to navigate, from time to time coming across crossroads and deciding where to turn; there could be hints where the goodies are, where the bad stuff is, fragments of a map maybe.. So you connect to a server, and start "exploring"; and the firewall is trying to catch you, going from its own spawn point. But firewall can move through the blocks, while you need to mine them out, which is slow.. So you get caught, but you apply some permanent upgrades and now it's easier to push through data on this server. Something like that...

Doing - whole lot of waiting for the memory to fill up to buy next level of "security", and another one, and another one... slowly waiting to "die" :D

Describe - "it's a very stylish cyberpunk breakout that plays itself"

With only the best wishes.

What does the "Operator Must Choose" actually do? I've selected it a few times and ignored it ~12 times and I can't tell what it does either way.

This game is awesome and is probably my favorite web game so far! Are there any plans to make it a downloadable game in the future? Apologies in advance if this question has already been asked/answered.

i love this game but i dont know how to beat the intrusion thing or smth

I love this game, but it's way too RNG focused. Like, DEMEX loses you the round if you don't get the one upgrade tree that allows you to shoot the sides, and drone is complete garbage without it's scanner

Does this game have any keybinds? Is there a way to exit a run early?

Won't load because of a random error in my system :( 

when i try to save i get this error:

what do i need to do

hi, i like the game, but everytime i play the game (already tried on chrome, edge, opera, and firefox) always show page crashes

Hey! I've been playing this game for a while, and once I beat it I started to mess with the code. I was just wondering if I could maybe get my hands on an unminimized version, as that would probably make it a lot easier to mess around with some stuff! If not, that's totally fine, but I would really appreciate it if I could!

I'm not sure if it's a browser thing or a low-end thing, but I've noticed that my low-end keeps freezing just after the first file finishes downloading :/ Like the appartment redesign though :)

I like the idea of the game, but it becomes a slog very quickly, I don't know if I've reached the end of the 'story' or what, I got the Kit injector long ago, but everything just takes forever now, I'm thinking it's because things aren't explained very well, I don't really know how what the upgrades do, or what to do next if I'm doing the right thing

I wonder if there is way to enlarge kit storage.. and what is this weird glitch upgrade keep showing, after downloading special pdf for the job? is my venus trying to enter sentience? this upgrade have any meaning?

all my progress is gone. :(

Most recent version won't run on my browser

The levels where the green circles start to appear always seem to crash the run. My runs get cut short without the reward
