Timeline of Prodigy Hacks

PIXI Ages

9/21/2019 - 03/25/2020

During these times, PIXI.game was a thing. However, Prodigy hacks were not well known.


Phaser Day

03/25/2020 - 03/26/2020

On this day, we used Phaser.GAMES[0], only for it to be patched the day after.


Login.gameObj Day

03/26/20 - 03/27/2020

An alternative method was found. However, it only supported the player object. It was also patched after a day.


CanvasPool Days

03/27/20 - 03/30/2020

This method worked for longer than the last one, however, it was also quickly patched. Three days... that's kinda quick.


Cheat Dashboard Day

03/30/2020 - 03/30/2020

A cheat dashboard (URL unknown) was developed by melncat. The dashboard was a good concept, however it became very buggy due to some game updates, which caused it to be unsupported the day after. A new one was created by hostedposted much later.


Dark Ages

04/01/2020 - 04/07/2020

The first week of April was a sad week for Prodigy hacks. All known hacking methods were patched. Had the goal of telling Prodigy to make better and more secure code been achived? No. Hacks would be back up and running on 04/07/2020.


EnableDebug Days

04/07/2020 - 04/09/2020

A way to enable debug mode was found, and worked for two days. However, debug was removed by Prodigy quickly after.


Prodigy Console Prevention

04/10/2020

On this day, Prodigy added a devtool disabler, which would cause a 404 on devtool open.


Debugger Scope Ages

04/12/2020 - 04/15/2020

On these days, multiple variables were used to obtain the Prodigy's scopes, and access the instance objects. This revived free membership hacks.


Redirector Ages

04/15/2020 - 11/13/2020

After many days, the Redirector hack was created, which would use a modified version of prodigy's game files. This would not be patched for a very long time. It was suceeded by the PHEx extension.


Content Security Patch

06/10/2020

On June 10th, Prodigy added content security headers. This caused the addition of another extension, Anti-CSP, to help with hacks. Having this many extensions for one job was tiring, and later PMGH introduced PHEx.


hack.instance.prodigy.player Patch

07/05/2021 - 07/05/2020

On July 5th, Prodigy implemented a patch for hack.instance.prodigy.player. This was unpatched by PMGH about 3 hours later.


Script based hacks return

08/25/2020

On August 20th, we found a way to access the Prodigy API, and use hacks without the Redirector extension.


_.instance.prodigy.player Patch

09/17/2020 - CURRENT On September 18th, Prodigy patched the hack variable by redirecting to a 404 page if the hack variable was detected. To unpatch this, we renamed the variable to _. Prodigy already uses _, so they can't delete it.


Chrome Extension Releases

10/21/2020 - 11/11/20

On October 21st, Google accepted the PHEx (Prodigy Hacking Extension) extension submission to the Chrome Web Store. The extension works exacatly the same as the Redirector Hack, but is much easier as you only have to install our extension without importing the JSON file into Redirector.


Chrome Extension Taken down

11/11/2020

On November 11th, Prodigy removed the PMGH Chrome extension via DMCA takedown. It was back up some day later.


Prodigy adds SHA256 Integrity Checks

11/13/2020 - 11/19/2020

On November 13th, Prodigy added extra security via integrity checking with SHA256, breaking the hacks. The SHA256 check still exists, however it was bypassed by Natsiumi on November 19.


SHA256 Sumchecks bypassed

11/19/2020

On November 19th, Natsumi bypassed the SHA256 sumcheck, which fixed the hacks.


New Dashboard

07/31/2020 - CURRENT

hostedposted created a new dashboard on July 31, 2021. It still works to this day, actually. Try it out.


The end of PMGH

04/06/2022

On April 6, 2022, Prodigy-Hacking/ProdigyMathGameHacking and Prodigy-Hacking/P-NP were deleted due to a DMCA takedown. P-NP technically hosts a copy of Prodigy's code, except it's modified to allow the running of hacks. PHEx was taken off the Chrome Web Store.


The rise of ProdigyPNP

04/07/2022

Not too late after Prodigy Hacking Official's repositories were taken down by the DMCA, gemsvidø, Eris, donaldli2020, and [Apocalyptic](I forgot your link) came together and formed a new organization called ProdigyPNP. This organization was dedicated to keeping Prodigy hacks alive, no matter what DMCA comes at us. bless the demon king that gemsvido had many local clones, also the github fork network is a thing.


The return of PHEx

04/16/2022

After fixing the broken P-NP and PHEx, Prodigy hacks were back up, just like before.


Error 48

08/21/2022

Prodigy had made a patch to P-NP, and with only gemsvidø who doesn't know shit about P-NP to fix it, there was no way ProdigyPNP could continue. However, _.player and other lodash things still worked, but it didn't let you play the game with hacks on, making things really inconvenient.


The fall of ProdigyPNP

09/07/2022

ProdigyPNP closed down.
