A cool concept, I found it a bit harsh with the limit to only one shot and either you hit or you fail entirely!

But once I got the hang of it I could go quite fast, but sometimes I knew where some nodes were but when I changed to a new router I wasnt able to see any anymore and had to guess so a badge or something that sticks to the players screen in the direction of signals just out of sight might be helpful or a way to move the camera to look there and be able to estimate when to shoot due to the firewall thingies.

Solid game!

Cool. I've played about 15 runs.

Simple but interesting mechanics. I'd love to see the project evolve and add new challenges.

Thanks for game!

In just a few steps, I was able to hack a penagon. It's fun! I hope I don't have any problems 😀

Congrats on your first ldjam entry! Wish I could move camera and there were more levels to it. Also only one attempt to fire ever feels a bit harsh, along with inability to move camera.

Nice work!
