Roadmap

Story & Sandbox Mode

UNCOVER YOUR FATHER'S LEGACY

Your father ran the most important software company of his era and took its secrets to his grave. A story woven through your rise. Everyone who knew him tells a different version of the truth: there is no right answer. What remains is what you choose to believe and who you become because of it.

PLAY IT YOUR WAY

Not here for the story? Go sandbox: pick your start year, set your difficulty, and build in a world that lives without you where rivals found, ship, over-reach, collapse, or grow into giants, and every run writes a different thirty-year history.

Play through the story of your father's legacy, or go sandbox and write your own. Build your hacker dream team squad.

PLAY THE STOCK MARKET

FINANCE YOUR AMBITION

Need money? Take a loan, just do it carefully, as you might go bankrupt. Perhaps safe is your priority? Then bring in some investors, or take the company public with an IPO.

HACK FROM THE SHADOWS

TAKE ON CONTRACTS

Your inbox fills with offers: test a company's defenses, clean up a breach, copy a rival's files, bury a secret. Every job pays. Every job has a side. Build the reputation of the fixer everyone trusts or the ghost everyone fears.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT

A preview of what's coming:

• Manufacturing: Distribution · Hardware · Serv Hosting. Go beyond software: press and ship physical copies, launch your own hardware line, and run the servers that host the world.

• Software Improvement: SaaS · Open Source. New ways to ship: sell your software as a service, or open-source it and let the community carry your name.

• Sales Improvement: Seasonality · Subscription · Physical & Digital Sales · Reviews. A deeper market: seasonal demand spikes, subscription revenue, the shift from boxed copies to digital, and reviews that can make or break a launch.

• In-game Build: Free-form building: raise walls, place windows and doors, and shape every room dynamically design your office down to the last tile.

• Multiplayer: Take your company online and measure yourself against real players, not just NPCs.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

We use AI tools during development to help write and debug code, and to help produce some art assets. Everything AI-assisted is made during development and reviewed by us before it ships.

We also use third-party assets bought from the Unity Asset Store. These are sold to us as human-made, and we have no reason to doubt that, but we cannot independently verify how each one was produced. Character animation uses Mixamo.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Hacker Inc. opens at a funeral. In story mode you are trying to work out why your father died, and what he did with his life.

The game does not tell you who was right. Different people give you different accounts of the same events, and what you believe is your decision.

Hacking appears as a fictional game mechanic. Nothing here teaches or performs real hacking.
