About this game

NEXUS is a modern cyberpunk hacking simulator inspired by classics like Uplink and Hacknet. Take on contracts from anonymous handlers, megacorp rivals, and underworld syndicates. Build bounce routes through relay nodes, breach firewalls, steal or delete sensitive files, transfer funds from corporate vaults — and disconnect before the trace catches up.

[NOTE — This is a fictional simulation. NEXUS does not perform any real network operations. All targets, servers, and exploits are simulated for entertainment purposes only.]

CORE LOOP
• Accept contracts from 4 factions (ANON, CORPORATE, SYNDICATE, INDIE) — your reputation with each shapes which jobs come your way
• Build multi-hop bounce routes through relay servers — more hops = slower trace
• Run tools (Recon, Firewall Bypass, Password Breaker, File Copier, Log Deleter, Backdoor Installer) — tool tier + CPU speed determines crack time
• Watch the trace meter — fill it and you're caught; disconnect in time and you walk away with the payout
• 4 mission archetypes: Steal File, Delete File, Install Backdoor, Bank Transfer

PROGRESSION
• Skylink rating climbs with every clean contract — higher tier unlocks harder, better-paying jobs
• Hardware shop: faster CPUs, more bandwidth, more RAM = more concurrent tools
• Software shop: tool version upgrades = faster cracks
• Per-faction reputation: high rep = more contracts from that bloc, low rep = they stop calling
• Achievements system: 12+ unlockables for ghost-runs, perfect-log streaks, no-trace completions
• Daily login streak: 7-day tier table rewards up to 1500cr/day at peak

VISUAL DESIGN
• Animated 3D rotating wireframe globe with neon node graph
• Glassmorphism cyberpunk panels, monospace + sans terminal aesthetic
• Color-shifting trace meter (green → amber → red glitch at critical)
• Streaming terminal text reveal during tool execution
• Per-tool sound design + escalating biohazard alarms near trace completion

LOCALIZATION
• English, Bahasa Indonesia, 日本語 — full game UI + missions + emails + news + onboarding

OFFLINE FIRST
• No internet required for core gameplay
• Single save slot, autosave on every milestone

PREMIUM (optional)
• Permanent unlock for advanced tools (no grind-wall)
• Subscriber tier for cosmetic theme + 2x credit multiplier
• Pay once, no recurring charges (except subscription)

PERFECT FOR
• Fans of Uplink, Hacknet, Cybxus Hack, Else Heart.Break()
• Mr. Robot, Watch Dogs, Cyberpunk 2077 enthusiasts looking for a thinky mobile companion
• Anyone who liked Terminator + 80s hacker movies and wanted to feel that vibe in a game

WHAT MAKES NEXUS DIFFERENT
• Tick-based simulation, not action — every move matters
• Engine is pure & deterministic — replays are reproducible
• Modern stack (Kotlin Multiplatform + Compose) — buttery 60fps on mid-range phones
• Open development — bug reports + feature requests welcome
