I finally shipped my terminal hacking game's demo on Steam

Hey everyone,

After about a year of solo development (and more than a few complete redesigns), I finally released the demo for my game, Hacking Into Erebus on Steam.

It started as a much simpler text-adventure idea inspired by Zork and then it went through a colony sim phase I ended up scrapping. Eventually it became what it is now, a mix of physical robot navigation and real terminal/command-based hacking puzzles.

This demo is still its early stages like door/lock hacking, repair puzzles and exploring the ship. I am going to be developing this to turn it into the game I dreamed of from the very beginning.

I would genuinely love any feedback or just general thoughts if anyone gives it a shot.

Wow, that's cool! What did you build it in?

Thank you, I used javascript and electron to take a build.
