Looks cool! But I was hoping the "hacking" tools and cli syntax to be a biiiit more realistic

It looks interesting and it has a certain vibe or quality that Thirty Flights had that I can't quite put my finger on.

This looks really great, for the first time someone might have actually made programming and real life hacking marketable.

If they plan on charging money for it again it better be longer than 10 minutes.

@jmic75: It's definitely going to be longer than 10 minutes. My buddy and I played it at PAX and it took us 30 minutes to get through part of a level.

Looks like a cool way to learn more about command lines. Hope it uses somewhat legitimate terminal stuff.

I don't know about this game yet, but I've played their previous two releases and they're at the very least worth experiencing. I'm a little curious about the whole softball hacking element of this game. That's an area that always seems either too easy or too complex and almost impossible to hit the sweet spot. So far, it looks pretty simple along the lines of entering console in Counter-Strike. Reserved excitement.

Ten seconds of video was all I needed. Whatever this is, it definitely isn't for me.

Well that's good news, while I liked 30 flights of loving, having paid for it and then it being over in 10 minutes made it feel kind of like a rip off.

By defending Patrick, you'll create more supervillains that he has to face down.  Just like Batman.

We can only hope that there's a decent modding community around it. This kind of game is usually tragically short.
