Hacking Simulator

Screen Capture from our Project

Inspiration

We wanted to make something that followed the theme of cyberpunk. To do this we researched major themes of cyberpunk. We decided to incorporate hacking, virtual reality, megacorporation, private military and class warfare.

What it does

This project is a hacking simulator and as such the user can snoop around the DFIING computer and hack into their systems. There are some interactive parts and some automated parts of the experience.

How we built it

This project was built using HTML, CSS, and lots of Javascript.

Challenges we ran into

Our challenges were making simulating and reading character inputs simultaneously, choosing nice-looking formatting, and not enough sleep/time.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud that the design of the project has a nice aesthetic and we were able to mimic a desktop interface by moving what was originally a terminal-only experience into draggable windows on the screen.

What we learned

We learned that our project should have been more thought out because as we had more ideas we did our best to make it work without thinking about how do we nicely incorporate this new idea into our code.
