Update - Terminal shake, Decrypt focus, future overhaul
Hacker Simulator News — April 17, 2026
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello everyone,
This update attempts to fix the terminal shaking issue as well as the focus issue in the decrypt tool. Please let me know in the Steam discussions or on the Discord server if the problem persists, including as much information as possible about the context in which it occurs.
I'm taking this opportunity to let you know that I have started working on an overhaul which will later allow me to offer a kind of 2.0 version of the game, fixing every issue reported by the community. I have collected and analyzed every single Steam review published since the game's release in order to understand the community's needs as well as possible.
As I communicated a long time ago, Hacker Simulator is my very first project and it is entirely made in Blueprint, Unreal Engine's visual scripting language. The code quality leaves much to be desired, and it is now very difficult for me to make changes without breaking something else somewhere. For these reasons, I was completely burnt out on this project for a long time, hence the lack of updates, but I have learned to reconnect with it and enjoy it again for some time now.
Thank you all for your interest in Hacker Simulator, and I can't wait to bring you new things.
Enjoy the game!
