Modus 

---------

 A new bar just opened and the bartender is a cutie! Welcome to 'a la modus', run by hippest new bartender hosting good drink for all: That's you! Hmm! For for a classy bar these guests that come visit seemingly have less than legal habits but you wear a big smile and serve them anyways because little do they know this star bartender is about to make it big with these villian's help. Modus features two modes that both act in real-time; In BAR MODE you must keep your customers engaged in their seats as you also hack them blind behind the scenes in HACKING MODE, where you must defend your ongoing decryption program from security measures coming down the CPU threads. You will have to spend your time switching between the two active modes in real time also while listening to the customer carefully to find out the answer to their security question that will ulitmately grant you access to money beyond your dreams. Are you too, just another serial criminal with an M.O. (Modus Operandi) ? Find out, in Modus! ;)

GOAL

 ----------

 In each level you must hold out against the security measures and the customer's boredom while your software decrypts the security question. After the security question is obtained you must then answer it correctly! This will require you to answer correctly to then spawn a final last ditch wave of enemies. Once the question is answered and all enemies you'll have succesfully commited theft of their funds and will close shop for another day. Loss conditions: -In HACKING MODE, Letting enemies past to the safe will widdle down your decrypters; lose them all and you lose! -IN BAR MODE, If you dont keep the patron engaged they will not stick around and they'll leave before finishing and you lose!
