ouroborOS: the operating system for hackers by hackers

Systems online.......
After a lifetime hacking in the Supermesh, Ouroboros built an operating system that gamifies network (in)security. Corporate AIs personified as spiders, scorpions, and squids. Viral vectors and brute force attacks visualized as laser fire and... y'know... disco balls spewing even more lasers.
Because an accessible platform for hackers and hacker wannabes puts even more people on even footing with giant megacorps. Even you, Mako. Hack them all!
Where are we going now?
We improved the waypoint system with cleaner visuals. Red waypoints for servers to hack, green waypoints for servers to defend, blue waypoints for deliveries. Distance indicators make it easier to find servers in twisty indoor spaces and volcanoes.
And the best part? If it's not your primary objective, the waypoints are hidden when you get far away. No more waypoint clutter! Just a focus on the things you're doing right here and now.
What else?
Additional fixes include balancing enemy counts on higher level servers, making Treasure Crawlers a bit easier to catch, improving Bounty rewards, and allowing for more explosions at once!
Where are we going next?
Sol Fusion is coming next! Be ready for another megacorp skyscraper to climb. Just watch out for lasers...
