About
a minimalistic FPS movement shooter. An energy drink-sized time capsule of endless fighting. A micro-world of bots in a perpetual state of meaningless conversation with each other. Stay as long as you like - they've fought long before you, and they'll fight long after you're gone.

Master a simple and responsive player moveset, featuring sliding, jumping, and a double-jump that allows you to redirect your velocity. Kill enemies with your sword and gun and find unique interactions hidden in these mechanics.

You are a rare visitor in this world. Go deep into chasing high-scores and watch as enemies begin to target you, escalating the gameplay into chaos. Alternatively, sit back and observe the bots stuck in the endless cycle of violence.

Walk around the lobby and explore the world that houses none. Take it all in as the world hangs in a standstill, near entropy but never quite there...

Neat little game. A couple of secrets for the achievements. The admin fight is tough. And I died a couple times cause I got to kill floor and was targeted way hard and got floored, but if you stay on the platform on the right of the arena to get ready for the kill floor it's easy to go up from there; since the bots kinda get stuck under you fighting and stuck on the corner trying to come up the ramp.
very charming little faux old online arena shooter, enjoyed the challenge of the fights and seeing the secrets through to the end

short to 100% but for a first game it's pretty good, i really like the art direction and the few interactions with bots. i'm waiting for new update or a spiritual sequel ^^
Cool little game!
[h2] Things I like about hate_net that's different than other Boomer-Shooters [/h2] [olist] [*] [b] Amazing Atmosphere: [/b] beautiful N64 graphics with memorable world building (just look at it). [*] [b] The Mechanics: [/b] simple but allow player expression and a good skill ceiling (+ it's satisfying to master). [*] [b] It's not just a leaderboard: [/b] there's a very cool story with multiple endings (and secrets). [*] [b] Great pacing: [/b] I got all the achievements in just about 2h, so it doesn't overstay it's welcome (incase you get bored of arcade games like me). [/olist] [h3] Honorable mentions [/h3] [list] [*] The game is not too hard for a boomer-shooter. [*] Very cool secrets for a short game. [*] [spoiler] Was pleasantly surprised with the secret boss fight. [/spoiler] [*] [spoiler] The secret ending was so unique and heartwarming. [/spoiler] [*] [spoiler] The dev left a secret tutorial note when you go to a place you're not suppose to in the tutorial, and I think that's cool af. [/spoiler] [/list] [h3] Verdict [/h3] hate_net is a deep gorgeous game about a dead video game, and I love it so much. I am not joking when I say this small 2h game is more complete then most 50h games. It takes me back to a time when video games were so interesting and filled with wonder and curiosity. hate_net is the silksong that small devs should strive to make. 10/10 masterpiece. Give it a try, you won't regret it.
Que mundo tão cheio de entidades, mas tão vazio de vida. Hate.net é um jogo que além de bem básico é bem curto também, a história dele é até que um pouco interessante mas pelo jogo ser algo bem pequeno não tem muito o que falar dele. O jeito que você joga é básico, sendo um jogo de combate em arena com algumas poucas mecânicas, nada revolucionário. Entretanto, esse tipo de jogo é o que me atrai bastante, algo bem desconhecido que tem um sentimento de vazio estranho você ver tantas entidades mas nenhuma delas realmente ser alguém de verdade, é estranhamente confortante mas desconfortante também e através da sua simplicidade consegue contar uma história até que legal que eu me identifiquei um pouco em certas partes. É um jogo básico, barato, curto.. algo pra jogar e platinar numa tarde casual que você está entediado, mas tem seu charme, lembro até de ter comprado uma cópia pro meu amigo na época por ter adorado e o mesmo também adorou, não só isso mas o criador também é uma pessoa bem agradável de se interagir, então é uma review merecidamente positiva.
A beautiful tribute to arena shooters, friendship, and the concept of digital third spaces. Sometimes it's easy to forget just how precious human interaction is, even behind a screen. Cherish your friends.
I seriously do not understand where does the game get all its positive reviews from. For not a score chaser, it contains ONE beatable level, ONE secret bossfight that mostly feels based on RNG, and ONE secret area that is so obscure I would never be able to reach it without a guide and its content was not even all that worth it. At first I thought it got such praises, because it costs something like 1€ when not on sale, but it is not even that. If there is some kind of an epiphany to be had from the game, I just don't get it.
5 dollar demo lol
This game is wonderful. Great art, great music, interesting setting, and the secrets are fun to get. A perfect one session type of game
