Web Based Multiplayer Hacker game

I play a few Hacker games on steam but all are single player and are client based. I have not seen any web based multiplayer ones where players can hack each other as well as other jobs to make money. Trying to think of other fun features that would be more than just hacking a bank. Think it might be fun to hack back and forth as well as build clans around it and so forth. Have to buy better computers and such as well as security clearances and even player auctions with passwords and stuff.

This app is incompatible with all of your devices.

:( Maybe someone can point out how it works, a mission or something :P

thanks for the links. Yeah seems like there are a few but even then the major thing I dont like about them is the learning curve and kind of the clunkyness I find in most of them. I wonder if more a Hacker Sim like game dev tycoon would be more appealing.

something like this Vit

Hum, if you're thinking about making it like game dev tycoon, then I see how it will be , sort of. But isn't this type of game too technical? I took a look on that steam game screenshots and there are something that i don't think people know... :roll:
But so game dev tycoon has I guess...

Wish you all the luck, which technologies are you planning on using for this one?

Not actually going to build it atm. I am working on a PBBG with .net right now was just curious on comments and what else out there exists.

My game will have a hacking component, as a "career" path or whatever. Was thinking of having a text based hacking mode and a "mini game" mode to try and cover both playing styles, I don't know though.

But hacking will definitely be one of the paths players can take in my game (a very open-ended PBBG).
