Gameplay summary and how to play Cyber Backtrace

Cyber Backtrace is a self-hosted MIT-licensed import of the award-winning JS13k game xx142-b2.exe by Ben Clark and Salvatore Previti. Move through a hostile alien network, learn from each deleted attempt, and use your execution backtrace to break deeper into the system.

Objective

Push deeper through the network by learning from short failed runs and using each backtrace wisely.

How to play
  1. 1Advance the intro, then move through the maze with WASD or arrows.
  2. 2Treat each short loop as information: map hazards, routes, and timing before restarting.
  3. 3Progress by surviving longer and reaching deeper nodes; bad timing deletes the current attempt.
Quick tips
Use Backspace quickly when a route is clearly doomed.
Memorize one safe sequence at a time instead of improvising the whole maze.
