OSX and Linux builds are NOT tested (I don't have any systems running those OSes atm). The only known issue otherwise is sometimes pickup collisions don't work.
The music adds to the feel and mood of the game effectively. However the controls are a bit slow and clunky. I felt slightly overwhelmed by the wall of text. However the graphic's and theme suited the game to a T. Good Luck! - Oh it needs to get harder.
Linux build works fine! The only strange thing is, that the GUI elements (botnet view and the explanations on the left side of the screen) are only half visible. Also the green computers always come up in pairs, which is pretty pointless, since I can only pick up one of them.
Really fun game, I liked it. The only thing I'd suggest is adding some sort of sliding animation just to make it a bit more fluent, but otherwise really nice game overall, well done :)
Good music, graphics and mood. As Capitals commented, I also felt a little delay on the controls, but the game was easy, so it is okay. Overall you did a good job!
I really like the graphics, they really contribute to the hacking theme, so did the music. The player moves with mouse-up, which is weird, and makes it feel unresponsive. Good job!
I often moved though an exit node without any effect, even after I hit a firewall blob before. Controls lag quite a bit bit there's not too much coming your way so it wasn't a real problem.
Liked the mood and the 90s-tastic graphics. Nicely done overall.

I like the audio and the cyber-mood.

Player moving on button up makes it feel unresponsive, and it's too simplistic; I never hit a firewall once!
