Terminal Memory – Chapter One

Hey spacers, it’s me, Argus.

I’m so so so excited to announce the first chapter of an ongoing project of mine – The first proper Hack Dungeon / extended quest in Starmourn revolving entirely around hacking! This was the first project I pitched to Eukelade when I joined the ST team, and it breaks a whole lot of convention.

Starting yesterday, a little earlier than expected, the hack dungeon went live and ~20 people have already C O M P L E T E D chapter 1! Thank you all for really exploring this project – I hope you’re having loads of fun.


For anyone who hasn’t had a chance to check it out yet –
Your mission is this:

Find the terminals, hack them, and report back to a mysterious scientist with your findings. I’m sure you’ll find these terminals have been much more active than appearances would lead you to believe.

For now, you can get right into the action by heading to the Coriolis Mountains and picking up the quest. We’ll even give you a clue – Head right to ‘Sim address v5697. Don’t forget to mind your steps around the Windmill Drones!

The team and I have done a lot of testing on this in my little workshop, but it’s 1000% possible there will be bugs out in the wild, much like the one that totally broke it at first! Please report any issues or breaks you notice so we can fix ’em up.

I hope you have a wonderful time exploring it and drawing all sorts of conclusions from this first chapter. If y’all like it, there’s certainly more to say, show, and do!

Paws pit-patting with nerves and excitement,

Argus
