Game looks great and looks like it will have a great future! I have but only 1 complaint, the guild is very uhh "here are the commands, figure the rest out yourself", while I understand that you guys don't not want to "hold your hand" but to people unfamiliar with command line this would be considered extremely difficult. (To run a exe you need to do this: "./filename")

Seems like a REALLY cool game, only I don't already know command lines. Hopefully eventually you add a much more comprehensive guide, I'll keep it in my wishlist and see what you make of it. If there was a more in depth guide on command lines and how to do things, even a regular person would be able to have fun with it.

I like the idea of a hacking game, but the guide isn't too helpful. I got stuck using the nmap and zmap. I couldn't understand how to find other users ports, ips, users, etc. In the hacking guide you said you didn't wanna hold the player's hand too much, but that seems to be what we need.

Very responsive dev! Took care of the most of the issues below quickly. Definitely still an early access, so, y'know, buggy at times. But the premise is so much fun, and I barely even understand what I'm doing (which hopefully better documentation soon).
Honestly, I think this has potential but as it stands I can't recommend it. The fact that it ever flagged as a virus is cause for concern. Even if it isn't malware, it's not a great look.
Secondly, almost immediately I was suffering technical issues. It started out okay, but after a short time, commands took a very long time to process, eventually my FPS completely bottomed out and the game crashed. When I restarted, I got an (in game) firewall alert before it would crash. Couldn't get past that point despite reinstalling/rebooting/etc.
So the firewall alert seems to be fixed. As of this edit, still having major performance issues (for example, issuing the 'ls' command will take a full 30 seconds to return the list).
Other commands simply don't work. (eg touch won't create a .txt file)
