[dead][html] H4XX0R RPG

abreaction":1h1rztm0 said:
I can't really see what I'm supposed to actually do in this game.
I suppose I should wait until it is finished... But am I supposed to keep going through links until I get somewhere? And how am I supposed to figure out these passwords?

I'm just confused @.@

That's kind of the idea I wanted :). It's supposed to be all about er... finding things out for yourself, putting yourself in the mindset of someone who's apparently suffered amnesia or something and has suddenly found themselves on a computer with... the Internet.

By the way guys:

Just to make you feel rubbish: 10 people have found the gmail password; 3 people have entered paypal. The game has been played 60 times.

:p

(Actually wow that's getting close to Vengeance stats, once it reaches 100...)
 
New site

As a hidden easter-egg, I have added Gamecock, which has flash games you can play. (Thanks Tomas for the idea)

It doesn't add anything much gameplay or story wise, and is hidden so you'll have to find it if you wanna use it :).

Folks in IRC have already seen it.

Passwordquest #3: Hotmail

The next stage of the game is now online, introducing a few new websites.

This also introduces a live emailing system... you'll receive an e-mail to your gmail inbox at *a stage* of the game.

The username is an e-mail address, found from a previous page. The password is displayed in plain text form in the right casing on one of the pages. It's an obvious one but you have to find it.

Hotmail has been added to the stats on the homepage:

Just to make you feel rubbish: 14 people have found the gmail password; 3 people have entered paypal; 1 people have entered hotmail. The game has been played 87 times.
 
Sorry about that, should now be fixed.

Overhaul

After seeing google's reaction to several non-malicious projects which used the google name, I want to get rid of all company trademarks and names from this. :p No big deal really and to be honest will add more character.

You might also notice that at the start of the game .net, .com, .co.uk are all used. These are all being replaced with the fictitious and ubiquitous .web tld. (h4xx0r.in, a major site in the game, will keep that name because I own it's respective domain name).

Sites in the system so far... hmm.

H4XX0R.IN
Facebook - Fakebook
Youporn - Yourporn
Get-Ripped
Gamecock
Google - Gargle
Amazon - Amazin'
Yahoo! Answers - Youwha? Answers
Youtube - Yourvids
Paypal - Palpaid
Gmail - GargleMail
Hotmail - Tepidmail
Wikipedia - Wakapedia
Holliter
phpBB - trollBB
(trollBB)
xHACKERSx
Myspace - MeSpace

I'm also gonna build on the storyline between the two hacker sites which is sortof shown in the current game.
 
Large Updates 7/3/10

Passwords

I'm still learning php, and upon finding the strtoupper() method I've now made all passwords in h4xx0r non-case-sensitive.

For example, if the password was previously Alan, you can now type "alan", "Alan", "ALAN", "aLAN", and it will work.


I have reduced ambiguity on the hotmail page. You now only need the ID part of the e-mail address. You can access it with either:

"USERID@hotmail.web", "USERID".

Again this too is not case sensitive, so you could even type "usErId@hOtMaIl.WeB" and it would work, or "useRId".



Terminal

The terminal is working quite well at the moment and forms the fourth password search.

Er... basically you'll know you've got the password if you can type "sudo make sammich" without it telling you you have fat fingers.

Type "help" in the terminal if you are unsure what to do. There are various *nix commands though they are bastardised and shat upon and simplified and electrified and systematic and automatic. Dundundundundundun go grease lightning etc etc.



"Begin" Menu

There's now a mock "start menu" on the right hand side of the screen.

This contains icons for the terminal, and also the web, which simply provides a link to the H4XX0R start page for anyone who gets lost.

This does hide some links (such as the google link off facebook); will fix shortly.




Quoted from the homepage:

Just to make you feel rubbish: 24 people have found the gmail password; 7 people have entered paypal; 5 people have entered hotmail. The game has been played 311 times.

"Game plays" are counted every time the link from www.h4xx0r.in is clicked, it's not uniques (well it is, sort of, but if someone plays the game twice, then it counts that. It doesn't count all page views, just the amount of times people access the game from www.h4xx0r.in)

The 24 people, 7 people, 5 people, are all genuine, minus 1 from each (myself). It uses cookies to make sure nobody is counted twice (within reason).
 
Can someone please tell me the gmail password? -_- I've tried at least 30 different things and got nothing. I have no idea what it could be...
 
Oh, I forgot about this..

Passwords, passwords, passwords. I'm not sure but

One was Dave, you got that by viewing your Amazon history and reading comments posted by you.

One didn't have a password - you had to click "forgot password" and enter the security question, which was "what was your first school"; this was Robert Dewney Junior School, you got this from Facebook I think.

I don't remember anything else.

Maybe I should start this up again some time, it was going pretty well, but it had major security holes in it, I didn't sanitize ANYTHING. My first ever thing in PHP, pretty silly releasing it live without learning PHP really.

But thanks for the interest!
