Internet Exploder (Jam Version)
A downloadable game

Fend off attacks from glitches and viruses as you fight to restart the server's firewall in this Y2K-inspired first-person shooter created for the EFPSE Y2K Jam 2026.
NOTE: I only ended up having about five days to work on this as I found out about the jam late. My ambition definitely exceeded my available time, so there's not much of a game here, really -- maybe only five minutes or so of very basic gameplay. But, I made something nonetheless so I figured I'd upload it and submit it. I hope you enjoy giving it a try, and I'll try to catch the next EFPSE jam when it starts!
UPDATE: My game placed 3rd in the jam! :) I really like how it turned out, so I'm going to expand the jam version and complete it to make something closer to what I had originally imagined.
