A downloadable game for Linux

Requirements

The game requires KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) to run the in-game computer. This might already be enabled on your system, but if the game doesn't run, this could be the reason why.

A version that does not require KVM and runs on Windows and macOS is in the works, but could not be completed before the jam end.

Controls

WASD (physical keys) to move.
Left mouse click to interact with objects/terminals.
Left/Right mouse click to leave terminals.

Known Issues

- Resizing the game window will clear terminal screens.
- Loss of connection to the in-game computer (e.g. poweroff or network down) will cause the game to freeze.
