Real-time multiplayer .io game about routing pulses across a shared circuit board on a synced beat clock. Deterministic sim, server-authoritative netcode, browser-only.
An original .io multiplayer game — you etch live circuit traces on a shared board, pulses travel at exactly 1 cell per beat, and you race other players to route pulses into demand nodes before they do. No lobbies, no tutorial, playing within 10 seconds.
Server-authoritative lockstep netcode, fully deterministic sim shared between client and server, ~17KB client bundle. Every mechanic is secretly a real engineering problem; clock skew, load balancing, routing congestion, learned by playing, not by being told.
Built an .io game where you etch live circuit traces on a shared board and race pulses to score nodes. One rule drives everything: 1 cell = 1 beat. Distance is literally time.
No lobbies. No tutorial. Drag your first line in 10 seconds.
