Five incremental games disguised as boring 1998-era desktop utilities, launched from a Win98 shell (ENTROPY OS):
- Vol I qBitTorrz (index.html) — torrent-client idler; seed, climb hardware tiers, migrate
- Vol II DEFRAG.EXE (defrag.html) — steer a disk defragmenter; drag-select; outrun entropy
- Vol III MACRO_VIRUS.XLS(spreadsheet.html) — build a compounding economy by drag-filling formulas
- Vol IV UPLINK (terminal.html) — terminal + live htop; manage load/heat; escalate to root
- Vol V INBOX ZERO (inbox.html) — keyboard-triage an exponential inbox; write regex rules
- ENTROPY OS (desktop.html) — the Win98 launcher that holds them all
Each is a single self-contained HTML file (vanilla JS, no deps, no build), with idle/offline
progress, scientific-scale numbers, diegetic upgrades, and a prestige that re-frames the fiction.
Also includes MANIFESTO.md (design thesis) and docs/ — the Collector's Edition companion:
a Dev Handbook and a Lore Bible (lore complete; 5 handbook chapters land in the next commit).
