Earth, circa 2040. The powerful are quietly preparing to leave for the stars, and you hack the people and systems behind it. As an independent cyber operator, run your own illicit Shadow Cloud, train your own models and orchestrate specialized AI agents. Pilot a drone room by room through real facilities to open the networks inside, then decide how much trouble to create while your agents work what you committed them to. You win by designing the operation, not by typing fast.
Screenshots are on the way. Follow development on Discord to see them first.
Features
Break in, room by room
Most contracts start outside a real building. You pilot a drone through it one room at a time, and each room holds its own isolated network: the drone is the only bridge between them.
Every move is a decision, not travel. Enter R&D now, or take out surveillance first? Detour through the security room to see the whole floor, knowing the intrusion raises Trace? Leave a relay behind, or keep a foothold through a compromised device?
Run your own Shadow Cloud
Your infrastructure is an illicit cloud rented from bulletproof providers: instances, hops, storage and GPUs, run from a console like a real cloud account.
During a mission you buy services on the spot: hop to a fresh IP to shake off pursuit, or burst bandwidth and compute when the operation needs it, all paid from the same campaign Credits.
Command AI agents, not keystrokes
Specialized agents scan, fingerprint, exploit and hold access while you decide where they go, what they risk and when to step in. Flows and policies automate the routine work you have already committed to.
You win by designing the operation, not by typing fast: map the topology, chain gateways, choose compatible models and decide how much trouble to create.
Train models on what you steal
Exfiltrated data becomes training material. Each training run produces a new model revision with its own strengths and trade-offs, drawn as a lineage tree in your AI Lab.
A revision is a step sideways, not a level-up: you pick the right model for the target, and the debrief tells you what it did.
Trace, DEFCON and adaptive defenses
Every action leaves a trace. As Trace rises, the target moves from passive defenses to suspicion, active containment, counter-AI and finally a hunt for your signal.
Defenses change the battlefield instead of ending the run at a fixed timer: doors lock down, credentials rotate and the network you mapped stops being the network you face.
An investigation across five acts
Routine contracts keep pointing at the same concealed initiative. Act by act, work for and against the Four corporations, Vantrex, Helix, Obsidian and Aurelion, and follow the evidence to what they are really preparing.
