Prototypes

Unlisted: Night Shift ’87 — a first-person government office at 2 a.m. Follow the ringing phone, answer with E, listen and hang up. WASD, mouse look, F flashlight, Backquote office settings. (games/nightshift, Worker arcade-nightshift, /arcade/nightshift/). Credits.

Unlisted: Lot — walkable night parking-lot study using the kit's WebGPU renderer, an attributed wagon and scanned asphalt (games/lot, Worker arcade-lot, route /arcade/lot/; deployment pending). Mouse look, WASD, F flashlight, Backquote Night settings. Asset credits.

Unlisted: Outbreak — neighbourhood exploration and local survival-game foundation (games/outbreak, Worker arcade-outbreak). No landing link, indexing, sitemap entry or login.

Unlisted: Brawl — top-down party brawler with a character select, six parody heroes with their own powers, shoveable props and stock rounds (games/brawl, Worker arcade-brawl). No landing link or indexing.

Unlisted: Walkers — 2D physics creatures (a biped, a quadruped, an inchworm) that learn to cross a room, climb walls and steps, cross rough ground, run a seeded obstacle course, or (the quadruped) pull off a laser heist with evolution strategies, trained live in the browser on Web Workers, with pre-trained walkers from the headless Bun trainer to compare against (games/walkers, Worker arcade-walkers). No landing link or indexing.

Unlisted: Archers — side-view arena archery in a noir silhouette look: arrows that stick and must be picked up, dodge-catches, stomps, one-hit kills, chests with special arrows, couch play for up to four on keyboards and gamepads against bots, and online rooms with rollback (?online, or ?room=code to invite) (games/archers, Worker arcade-archers). No landing link or indexing.

Unlisted tool: Lab — the one isolation workbench for every game's effects, materials, looks, physics and sound (games/lab, Worker arcade-lab). Old /arcade/<game>/lab.html links redirect to it.

Getaway, Blackout, Outbreak, Carrier, Brawl, Archers, the Lab and packages/* share a Bun workspace and the root bun.lock. Install at the root, then run checks and development commands in the game you are changing. Shared code is the private @arcade/kit source package. Wings, landing and redirects keep their own installs and lockfiles.

bun run dev at the root serves every workspace game at its production path on one local origin, with the developer hub at /arcade/getaway/dev.html (see docs/dev-hub.md). On Kit's Mac, launch it as nexus run arcade -- bun run dev.

Record matching Getaway runs: bun scripts/compare-video.ts --version Before=ref:4495277 --version Now=url:http://getaway-smoke.localhost:1355 --layout stack --out captures/compare/night.mp4. Use --also-side captures/compare/night-side.mp4 for both layouts; high quality is the default (2× capture, 1080-wide stack / 2560-wide side). Add --zoom 1.35 for closer framing or --quality draft for smaller files; see --help for all options.

bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun run check:packages
cd games/blackout
bun run check
bun run deploy

Routing

All Workers share the anoma.ly zone. Each game owns anoma.ly/arcade/<name> and anoma.ly/arcade/<name>/*, and strips the /arcade/<name> prefix in its Worker. The landing owns only the exact anoma.ly/arcade and anoma.ly/arcade/ routes plus anoma.ly/arcade/assets/* for its bundled files, so it never shadows a game.

CI

.github/workflows/<project>.yml runs when files in that project change, or on manual dispatch. Getaway, Blackout and Outbreak also watch shared packages, root scripts and workspace configuration. Their workflows install at the root with bun install --frozen-lockfile, then run the game's bun run check and production-bundle smoke load. The packages workflow checks shared code independently. On main, each affected game runs its own bun run deploy. Deploys use the CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN and CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID repository secrets.

History

The games were imported with git subtree add from their original repositories, so git log -- games/<name> shows their full history. Blackout came from the anomalyco/blackout GitHub repository. Wings came from a local repository.

Migration notes

• These are new Workers, so their Durable Object namespaces are fresh. Live rooms and lobby state from the old anoma.ly/labs/* deployments do not carry over.
• The old anoma.ly/labs/blackout, anoma.ly/labs/getaway and anoma.ly/labs/wings URLs (every path, with the query string) permanently redirect to /arcade/<name> through redirects/. The old labs Workers and the standalone repositories have been removed; their history is in this repo. anomalyco/blackout on GitHub is superseded by this repo.
