Please also report any bugs directly on the Discord server, so that they can be resolved quickly. Please leave constructive feedback and suggestions if you have any. This was a solo dev project, so please be understanding that improvements will come if you give feedback on how you'd like to see the game progress. Tip: Type help in the terminal to see the available commands. Your trace increases while connected to targets, so plan your operations carefully and get out before you're caught. 
Ghost Shell is a terminal-based hacking game where you take on contracts, infiltrate remote systems, exploit vulnerabilities, steal valuable data, and disappear without leaving a trace. 

Gameplay Features 

  • Hack Through the Terminal: Scan networks, discover services, exploit vulnerabilities, navigate remote systems, read files, and exfiltrate data using terminal commands.
  • Take on Contracts: Accept operations from different clients with unique targets, risks, objectives, and rewards.
  • Multiple Difficulties: From Easy to Extreme, higher-risk contracts offer greater rewards and more demanding operations.
  • Trace System: Your actions generate trace while connected. Manage your exposure and get out before the system catches you.
  • Exploit Challenges: Find vulnerable services and solve typing challenges to gain access.
  • Multiple Objectives: Complete primary objectives and optional tasks such as finding evidence, disabling services, deleting logs, installing backdoors, and more.
  • Hidden Objectives: Discover secret opportunities while exploring compromised systems.
  • Multiple Exfil Targets: Some contracts require you to steal several files, while decoy files can lead you astray.
  • Stealth & Clean Runs: Stay quiet, avoid errors, and complete operations cleanly for additional rewards.
  • Dynamic Contracts: Targets, clients, objectives, files, services, and operational conditions change from contract to contract.
  • Mission Tracker: Keep your objectives and hints visible while you work through the terminal.
  • Payout & XP: Complete operations efficiently to maximize your earnings and progression.
  • Black Market Upgrades: Spend your money on hardware and software upgrades to improve your setup and hacking capabilities.
  • Progression: Earn XP, level up, upgrade your workstation, and take on increasingly dangerous contracts.
  • Risk vs. Reward: The bigger the target, the bigger the payout—and the greater the risk.
