Welcome to Terminal Hacker, the game where you can become the world's best hacker. You are tasked with cracking as many terminal passwords as you can; from doxing to DDoSing, you can use whatever method you see fit. See how you stack up against your fellow hackers on the leaderboards.
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
This a simple test made in a very short time, using some borrowed assets from my other games, as well as some components I had laying around. Microsoft word software cost.
Sure, this is not a fully original idea but rather a game I've been trying to make since I was a teenager in one way or another. This time, I have reframed the whole story and character motivation, as well as the puzzles. The level geometry was entirely redone as well, but still bears some vague resemblance with the original concept.
Bear in mind this is the more-or-less just two weeks of work on top of an engine I've written for another game. Things are still settling!
This is a slow game. Double down in black jack. Take your time!

Just place the executable wherever you want. The base.pfs file must be on the same place as the executable.
Might require DOSBox for modern machines.
A version for Amiga OCS will come in the next few months!

The ambience gives me some serious Megaman Legends vibes! I love it! =)
I was honestly aiming at a Marathon look, but hey, that works too! :D
Thanks!
This is senior editor Dan Moren. We take networking for granted these days, but it’s still a complicated beast. If you want to go under the hood, Apple includes a suite of tools on your Mac to help you troubleshoot networking issues; they’re all included in the Network Utility app, which you can find in System/Library/CoreServices/Applications—though it’s probably easier to simply type “Network Utility” into Spotlight.
When you first launch Network Utility, you’ll see a single window with a variety of tabs, each of which offers different information. The first tab, Info, provides information about your own computer, offering a drop-down menu of all your network interfaces—for example, if you have both wired ethernet and Wi-Fi connections. When you select one, you’ll see the Hardware Address, associated IP, speed, and information about how much data is going in and out of that particular connection. Most often you’ll refer to the info here when troubleshooting issues.
Next, we’ll take a look at the Ping tab. This tool sends packets of data over the network to a specified address, which can help you figure out if the remote server in question is encountering problems. To check if there are issues on your local network, you can ping your router’s address, which you can find in the Network preference pane. By default, ping sends 10 packets, and then reports how many of those packets successfully arrived at the destination and how long it took those packets to make the trip. If you’re losing a lot of packets, or they take a long time to arrive, it’s a good indication that there’s a network slowdown. If you’re getting errors about all your packets, there’s probably a network problem on your own side.
The Lookup tool is a handy one if you’ve ever had questions about just where an IP address comes from. Think of it like a phone book: Enter any domain name to get the corresponding IP address (or vice versa). On the off chance that you find yourself poring over network logs or wondering about where an email came from, this tool might provide some illumination.
If you’ve ever wanted to feel like your typical movie hacker, the Traceroute tab might scratch that itch. Think of it as a more detailed version of the ping tool—not only does it send packets to a specified server, but it also charts all the stops that packet makes. (It’s a bit like tracking a train’s route.) If there’s a particular server in the chain that’s slowing your connection down, this can help you suss it out—though doing something about that is probably out of your reach; you may wish to talk to your ISP.
Finally, the Whois tool is the place to go if you’re wondering who owns a particular domain name. Just enter the domain name and scroll down to find a full listing about its owner—though be aware many registrars these days offer tools to anonymize domain name listings, so you may not find exactly what you’re looking for.
Network Utility has a few additional tools that can be handy for networking troubleshooting, but they require a bit more in the way of know-how. Still, you should feel free to play around with them and see what you can learn. This is senior editor Dan Moren. Thanks for watching.
