Who is this game for?

Anybody with sufficient motivation should be able to complete the main storyline in this game! For the experienced hackers out there, this can be a great refresher and a test of your assembly language knowledge.

This game does not assume you have any background in programming. Anybody can play!

What does it teach?

The main skill that Squally aims to teach is assembly language (x86/x64). Assembly language is one of the most crucial but difficult to master skills for an aspiring hacker.

However do not fear! Assembly language is not as hard as people think! Unfortunately, it is often taught in a very poor manner. Squally is a game to solve this problem by assembly language approachable and fun.

Supplementary topics like binary and hex are taught through puzzles and gameplay.

Note: Linux and Mac builds teach x64 assembly, whereas Windows teaches x86 assembly. This is due to technical constraints on the compilers used for each platform.
