Day 7 of building HackMeNow.
I’m back after a few days away.
Today I’m starting Level 3, where the game moves from coffee puzzles into real sysadmin investigation.
Logs, clues, cat, grep, and terminal problem-solving.

Day 6 of building HackMeNow.
Today I added save/load support
The game now remembers terminal output, puzzle flags, restored files, and wrong attempts.
Small feature, big difference.
Next build update after the weekend.

Day 5 of building HackMeNow.
Today I added path autocomplete to the fake Linux terminal.
Type part of a file path, press TAB, and the game completes it.
Small feature, but it makes the terminal feel real.

Day 4 of building HackMeNow in Python.
Level 2: The Missing Logs.
/var/log/coffee.log is gone. The player must find the backup, inspect it, and restore it with sudo.
Linux learning, but make it a terminal puzzle game.
Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4770020/Ha…
Day 3 of building HackMeNow.
Today I made Level 1 playable.
Mission: make a coffee.
Problem: the coffee machine needs root access.
make me a coffee = permission denied
sudo make me a coffee = success
Linux learning, but make it a game.
Wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/4770020/Ha…
Day 2 of building HackMeNow.
Yesterday: command history.
Today: the actual Pygame terminal interface.
Custom fonts, command input, cursor tracking, ANSI colours, output rendering, and a blinking cursor.
