Got this to work on Lutris using Wine as runner so it'll probably work on Windows pcs. I downloaded the copy from the google drive link. Extract, go to Redist folder, install one of the vcredist files (64 or 32 bit), then finally, install xnafx40_redist.msi (this is important). Use the LAUNCHER.exe file to run the game.

Hey,
When I click on hacknet.exe, 2 black windows pop up, one console and the second window is supposed to be a "game" I guess. I can hear a music, but it won't load. I can see just a black screen.
I downloaded XNA framework and wrote that setting thing, but it still doesn't work.
Can anyone help me? I'd like to play this game.

you need to check your log > connect to naix by putting the IP > delete his x-server.sys
HOW TO :
#ls (you'll see all the files)
#cd log (go to log)
#ls (the IP will be there, search the one like IPI.PIP.IPI.PIP has deleted x-server.sys (something like that))
#connect IPI.PIP.IPI.PIP
#probe
#SSHcrack 22
#porthack
#ls (you'll see all naix file)
#cd sys
#scp x-server.sys
#reboot -i
note : every game has different ip
the tag (#) means you need to type it
hope this helps ;))

It depends on the game. If it uses steam invites and allthat, it won't work. Other ones might work fine, depending on what servers it uses.

WE NOT FORGOT SOMETHING, BRO. If you lost steam_api.txt, Please turn off your anti virus before download (if you downloading from TORRENT) or before extract. Because your anti virus or firewall blocked it ^^.
And REMEMBER INSTALL ALL VREDIST, C++, JAVA, ... BEFORE START SOME GAMES.
