What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Net.Attack() has been shaped by community feedback since day one. Early Access allows us to give players insight into the development process and iterate on ideas quickly, to see what brings the most joy to everyone.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Releasing soon: Q1 2026”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We are working on more characters and nodes to increase run-variation, and keep tweaking mechanics based on your feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Almost done! We are presently overhauling the tutorial, to provide a better onboarding experience for new players. You already have access to all maps and game modes, but more characters are joining the hacker crew at release.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will stay the same :)”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Join our Community Discord to report bugs, make suggestions, and be among the first to get updates on the development process! Of course, we also pay close attention to the Steam Discussions.”

About This Game

Welcome, Hacker!
Net.Attack() is a bullet-heaven roguelite where you visually program your own attack algorithms using 175+ drag-and-drop nodes, then watch them execute in real-time combat against security system hordes.

Build devastating attack algorithms using drag-and-drop programming nodes. Chain triggers, branch conditionals, and loop executions to create thousands of unique combinations. Your custom code unleashes bullet-heaven chaos automatically. You focus on strategy and survival while your algorithms execute.

Chain nodes to spawn projectiles that multiply on impact. Let the enemies shooting at each other or loop execution to create sustained area-of-effect devastation.

Break into hostile systems across multiple regions in a near-future cyberwar. Each region presents unique security protocols and escalating difficulty levels.

Face relentless waves of security countermeasures in fast-paced bullet-heaven combat. Your custom-coded algorithms execute automatically based on the logic you engineer, unleashing storms of projectiles while you navigate the chaos. Each run pushes your builds to their breaking point.

Choose from multiple hacker characters, each with unique starting abilities and specializations. Potentially unlock nodes from other sets for even more complex combinations. Find your playstyle and engineer your personal path to dominance.

Collect DarkBits# with each chip extraction and exchange them on the DarkMarket for new operatives and permanent power upgrades across runs. Uncover additional regions as you progress and gather bonus currency by completing missions like the Daily Challenge.
