About this game

Hack the mainframe in this action-packed clicker game!

HackerNet is a short, experimental clicker/tapper idle game. Hack through 20 levels to defeat the mainframe and earn all 8 achievements! The only interactions are tapping the screen and buying upgrades using the in-game currency. This is my first game, made as a solo project.

Completely free, single-player and offline, it requires minimal permissions and has no ads, in-app purchases, tracking or analytics. No personal information is collected. HackerNet can be played with a single finger, but supports up to 10-finger multitouch.

Ratings and reviews

Mindless tapper featuring an anime girl, and sadly that's it. The retro glitchy visual aesthetics is the only positive thing I can say, but everything else felt barebones and empty. Curiously the stats page has an entry related to a prestige mechanic, hoping for something here...

I'll give you 3 stars for the insta-lose, that was funny. Why does the text appear slowly and stilted as though the game is lagging? -- If that's intentional, you should probably give a warning about your aesthetic choices.

Cool game and beautiful. It's just too short (or the progress too fast. I guess it is an unfinished product but I had fun with it.
