nine games. mandatory procrastination.
all three are playable signed-out. the leaderboard is the only thing sign-in unlocks, and we are honest about that.
Debug This
three lives. spot the bug. consecutive solves multiply your score. hints halve a puzzle's bonus.
playable crosser · higher score wins404: The Game
cross the network. five lanes of bugs. reach a 404 home tile to score. fill all five and the bugs come faster.
playable arcade · higher score winsSnake but it's CI/CD
your snake is your pipeline. pellets are deploys. walls are merge conflicts.
playable arcade · higher score winsKeepalive
two endpoints trade tcp keepalives. miss too many and your service drops off the network. first to 7 wins.
playable arena · higher score winsRace Condition
on-brand atari combat. two threads enter the critical section. first to 5 race conditions wins.
playable arena · survivalStack Overflow
on-brand joust. you are main(). other frames want to push you off. higher lance wins. don't get garbage collected.
playable shooter · higher score winsDependency Hell
on-brand space invaders. fire npm audit fix patches at descending
vulnerabilities. major-version bumps fly across the top. lock files erode.
Scope Creep
the requirements looked simple. every level has an obvious path and the obvious path is a lie. no lives. just how far you can read the room before the room reads you.
playable fighter · higher score winsScrum Fighter
every fighter is a tech-org personality with an ironic special move. climb the org chart vs cpu, or settle it local two-player on one keyboard. the executive is the final boss.
