UNDERCODEX: Six Caves, One Descent
An original portrait-first six-law expedition arcade inspired by Alex's Caves. One occupied brass survey pod keeps its hull, position, chapter custody and environmental state while crossing six rare strata. Steering is always physical; the large action is not. Each cave publishes a different law that must be learned rather than replaced by a universal dodge button.
GROOVEHEIST: Every Parry Steals a Beat
An original portrait-first rhythm duel built on one conserved physical record. Each of twelve absolute groove slots is Boss-owned, player-owned, or an empty rest. During STEAL, answer an incoming High, Mid, or Low note at the needle, or spend finite Breath to Slip it. A clean answer transfers that exact slot from the Boss to the player; it does not deal damage and it never moves the note. During RETURN, inputs lock and the same stolen slots play at the same positions. Their circular order must exactly equal the published Crown Mix.
SECONDTHIEF: Every Enemy Carries a Dying Clock
A standalone portrait clock-hunt puzzle in pure JavaScript. Every accepted step spends one second from Vesper Quill and simultaneously burns one second from every living clockbeast. Step onto a beast before zero to transfer only its exact post-burn remainder. Arrive on the final chime and the beast becomes a permanent solid Time Husk before you enter its cell. Claim both Chrono Anchors and escape with time still alive.
