About this game
> SYSTEM_BOOT
Accept contracts. Spawn processes. Keep the rig alive.
> TASK_MANAGER_IS_THE_GAME
Every process eats CPU, RAM, disk, and heat budget.
Kill the wrong thing and the work dies with it.
> CONTRACT_ACCEPTED
Money comes through email.
So do scams, malware, and choices you cannot unclick.
> THREE_SIGNALS_DETECTED
Chip wants to help.
DataDyne wants compliance.
Ghost wants proof.
> THERMAL_LIMIT_REACHED
Above 90C, the machine fights back.
At 100C, it crashes.
> BAD_VOLTAGE_BAD_END
Tune clocks. Touch voltage. Push harder.
The BIOS will remember what you did.
> KEEP_WORKING
> KEEP_COOL
> DO_NOT_CRASH
