FAQ

How often do you intend to update the Early Access version? As often as possible, but it will be weeks, maybe even months since we're only a two-man team. Does the game work on OSX? Absolutely! And Linux? Oh yes! Consoles? Mobile? Nope. Maybe in the future consoles might be interesting but we need some serious sales figures before this is realistic. I found a bug or I got suggestions! Let us know on the steam forums! What about multiplayer? We'd love to do a co-op multiplayer, but it's not really viable right now. Help us out by getting some wind under our wings and it becomes more realistic :) ------ Thanks for your support!

Explore Cyberscape

"Welcome to Cyberscape, User!"

You've already spent a lot of time on your computer. It's time for you to learn what really goes on inside!

In this bizarre, yet somehow familiar environment live small digital life-forms called Hexters. It is your role to assist these little guys and learn about bits, bytes, polygons and hexadecimals (it's all nonsense by the way).

Meet some helpful programs

Interesting and quirky programs will help you to unlock the secrets of the Cyberscape.

Build and expand

Start from a meager Hub - the center of your operations - and plan your expansion. Everything must be connected to your node network for power to flow.

Power is life

Nothing works in this world without power, and there are only so many computational cycles available. Make sure you always have enough of them to power up your buildings, otherwise bear the consequences of inefficiency.

Extract, collect, refine and improve

Find all the resources available to you and build refineries, extractors, polysmiths and other buildings to improve them.

Day & Night cycle

Even inside a computer it can get scary when it's dark. Hexters prefer to stay inside the base perimeter during the night, and move slowly outside with their flashlights while figuratively pooping their pants (which incidentally has no visual nor mechanical representation whatsoever). Hope you generate enough power as you need to recharge your illumination probe for night to end.

Oh, by the way: During the night... There be dragons.

Fight back

There's all kinds of problems inside a computer, like viruses and glitches. And those things wants you GONE, permanently. You will need to come up with some creative ways to stand your ground and survive.
