Actually, its called “Rückingenieur” in German. (I am German, you know) Funny thing reading the title and then reading that it had to be German… Well, nice game though.

Hi there,
the word Ruckingenur does not exist in German, its more like Rück Ingenieur.
But i guess u have a problem with our Ü character, to write Rueck is ok too.
How ever nobody would use this word, we would call that reverse Engineer, because Rück Ingenieur Sounds stupid :-), and every Engineer here speaks English, or at least should…
T-Shirts with the Printing of “reenignE esreveR” are often found.
and btw. great game, keep on the good work!

I managed to get Ruckingenur to work by adding a second screen to my laptop and extending the screen. This solved the issue with the cut-off on the right hand side. I wonder whether for the sake of compatibility, the screen size required should be kept at less than 1024 *768 as many users will have this as default. Excellent game though, can’t wait for the next episodes.

Ruckingenur I is a tech demo, and only consists of a single level (the Supar Secure lock). # Ruckingenur II is a full game. It was originally intended to be 7 levels, but I ended up cutting it down to just 4 so that I could actually complete it. These four levels make up Episode 1 of Ruckingenur II; I plan to release additional episodes with additional levels (see Half-Life 2). # I plan to tackle a lot of other common questions that have popped up recently in a post in the next few days.

Thanks for the help guys. I did figure it out. I noticed that people have talked about there being more than one “chapter” or “episode” in Ruckingenur I, although when I downloaded the game, when you finish the first level, it doesn’t let me move on. Are you supposed to download the different episodes seperately? Or am I missing something in the game that allows you to move on?

You’re all pretty dead-on with what’s wrong with this game – keep in mind that this version of Ruckingenur is a very early prototype that I made about three years ago. If you look between the two versions, you’ll notice some neat improvements, such as “physically” connecting the board to the hacking tool via the probes for better logical feedback, along with not having “hidden states” that trap the player without their knowing (i.e. the fingerprint scanner).
