Based on how amazing the results were last time, I thought I should throw up a bit more for the prizes this time, so:
First time making an extension for Hacknet? This guide will get you started! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=914587661 If you're joining in, or want to keep tabs on what people are making (or want to get involve with art/music), join the Hacknet Discord here. I'll be there too! Can't wait to see what you all make! -Matt

Hackerjam v2 is on now!
After the amazing results of the first Hackerjam - a community event for creators to make Hacknet extensions (mods/custom campaigns), I've decided to run another one!
Feel like you could make a cool story or interesting experience with Hacknet's style and mechanics? This is your time!
THE RULES
- Extensions must be submitted and uploaded to the Steam Workshop before 11:59PM PST May 26th. That's a month from this announcement!
- Nothing that violates the Hacknet community code of conduct or that you don't have the right to use. Basically be respectful, don't use anything that doesn't belong to you without permission.
- In the spirit of competition, nothing that was submitted before this post went live will be eligible.
- Judging will be done by myself, and Spiderbenb (mod and streamer on the Hacknet Discord)
HOW TO SUBMIT

Hacknet is an immersive, terminal-based hacking simulator for PC. Dive down a rabbit hoIe as you follow the instructions of a recently deceased hacker, whose death may not have been the accident the media reports. Using old school command prompts and real hacking processes, you’ll solve the mystery with minimal hand-holding and a rich world full of secrets to explore.
Bit, a hacker responsible for creating the most invasive security system on the planet, is dead. When he fails to reconnect to his system for 14 days, his failsafe kicks in, sending instructions in automated emails to a lone user. As that user, it’s up to you to unravel the mystery and ensure that Hacknet-OS doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
Exploring the volatile nature of personal privacy, the prevalence of corporate greed, and the hidden powers of hackers on the internet, Hacknet delivers a true hacking simulation, while offering a support system that allows total beginners get a grasp of the real-world applications and commands found throughout the game.
Real Hacking
Based on actual UNIX commands, Hacknet focuses on real hacking, not the Hollywood-style version of it. This creates a truly immersive experience and puts players right in the thick of trying to break through the firewalls.
Unlock the mystery of Bit
A hacker is dead and the media reports don’t add up. When you are contacted by his “ghost” - an automated failsafe system - you’re drawn into the dark and murky world of underground hackers.
Full immersion
You are thrust into a persistent virtual world with no “levels” or obvious game elements to break the illusion. Follow the guidance of the emails from Bit or just dive down the rabbit hole, chasing down clues and snippets of information you find as you explore different systems.
Accessible but uncompromising
Whilst not holding your hand or dumbing down, the design of the game and the learning curve enables those with no prior terminal experience to enjoy it whilst delighting those in the know.
Killer tunes
Hack to the beat of a soundtrack featuring underground artists including Carpenter Brut (Hotline Miami) and Remi Gallego (AKA The Algorithm).
Soundtrack produced in association with The Otherworld Agency.
