Switch between current DEVCO lanes to review the working spec, current task list, and a compact gantt-style phase view. This is a studio monitor, not a marketing mock.

Spec Snapshot

_Single authoritative document._ Turn-based naval strategy game in the style of Risk. Up to 8 players (human or bot). Each player starts with three fleets of 10 ships, each in a different sea. Expand by conquering adjacent seas, control full oceans for production bonuses, eliminate opponents, and win by being the last player standing. Complexity ceiling: **Risk**. No pirates, trade routes, ship upgrades, fog of war, or economy systems. Build this and stop. The very first thing the player sees when the game launches is the **lobby screen**.

Spec Snapshot

Piano Player is a serious web application for piano practice built around a connected MIDI keyboard. It already has a working prototype at `/piano_player`. The goal is not to invent a premium app from scratch. The goal is to turn the existing prototype into a super functional piano learning and song practice web application. It should remain a single-page application served on the `devco.nyc` domain. There is no product reason to split the experience into a separate app shell or multi-page product. The current `/piano_player` route is the right deployment

Ping Pong is a fast browser table-tennis game already live at `/ping_pong`. The goal is not to reinvent it. The goal is to harden the feel, presentation, and replayability so it reads as a polished DEVCO demo rather than a one-off toy. tight paddle control clear spin behavior: topspin, backspin, sidespin where appropriate reliable AI opponent behavior readable score/state presentation stable rally physics

The core fantasy is: operate in a high-signal trading room monitor gold, silver, and platinum markets in real time make disciplined buy and sell decisions manage cash, income, allocations, and inventory walk into a vault and see accumulated metal stacks as a direct reflection of

Spec Snapshot

Hey, See below spec for a Project Ashfall rogue-style game. I think the intended release would be Steam, but could also build it on a website (Runescape style). I offered to [redacted name] that he could have 25% of the revenue of the game if he wrote the spec, could you have him work with [redacted name] to map out a contract and see if we can't start working on shipping him a game? Thanks, [redacted name] Project summary: Action RPG with rogue-like progression and loot-driven dungeon crawling Inspirations: Diablo II, Hades, Path of Exile
