BubblesGame systems · deterministic play. Bubbles is a polished arcade game with a serious deterministic core. Its remaining work is concentrated in the connected product experience, broad browser qualification and owner acceptance.Projects
FighterGame systems · authored journeys. Fighter is a collectible squad battler with authored characters, combat, progression and several play modes. It is also the first product behind a possible family of distinct games using proven gameplay and supported content seams; a configurable boundary and independently releasable variants remain unproven.Projects
SHOALSHOTGame systems · mobile-first presentation. SHOALSHOT is a fishing game with recent work in presentation, performance, responsive play and qualification.Projects
Protocol 11Game systems · responsive table play. Protocol 11 brings card-table play, a twelve-stage House Circuit, distinct rooms and characters, and solo recovery into one deliberately authored game.Projects
MAXAssistive technology · software and hardware. MAX is an assistive-technology project with a substantial software platform: PWA, pairing, gateway, offline behaviour, remote FIND and STOP, privacy and device control.Projects
PiratesGame reconstruction · source archaeology. Pirates is rebuilding Master of the Secret Sea from original source evidence. The work is deliberately parity-first.Projects
LoftwahFMMusic platform · shared radio capability. LoftwahFM owns the music catalogue, radio generation, station programming and shared browser client. Listen to its music stations and first original shows, then follow the separate evidence for game adoption. The broader venue business remains a separate roadmap.Projects
Social ClubHospitality · membership experience. Social Club has a functional foundation for a private-club and hospitality experience.Projects
Asset HunterAsset discovery · rights-aware delivery. Asset Hunter discovers creative and technical possibilities, inspects source bytes and records rights per example. Its portable-pack implementation can deliver permitted files with provenance, attribution and a reproducible archive, while keeping reference-only material as records. The next proof is another builder using a pack in a real project.Projects
Reuse earns its place.Portfolio report. Radio already connects independent games. Asset Hunter can package what it finds. The next useful test is whether someone chooses to listen, play or build with the result.Portfolio report
Connected products. Observable progress.Portfolio report. Radio is reaching the games. The next gains are better play, easier discovery and music worth returning to.Portfolio report
Shared music, independent games.Portfolio report. Listen to LoftwahFM’s music and original radio, then follow the evidence for its shared client and the games adopting it.Portfolio report
The factory is learning to play its own work.Portfolio report. Protocol 11 leads a new review of nine projects. The useful progress is in the game itself: a Journey, recovery, sound and art, backed by a reported production release. Elsewhere, a healthy live build can still be ahead of—or behind—the source.Portfolio report
Four projects solved four different problems.Case study. A portfolio review proposed extracting one shared agent-and-browser safety layer from the games and this site. Reading the actual implementations says the opposite: these are four specific failures with four earned answers, and a shared layer would have had to pick a side in each.Case study
The empty tables are the answer.Field note. Asset Hunter's backup drill found that the tables holding a stranger's rating, rights report or dispute have never had a row. The useful part is not the zero. It is that the product found the zero, wrote it down, and refused to call the drill a pass.Field note
Nine projects, and the first one you can check.Portfolio report. Asset Hunter joins the portfolio as the first Woodhouse project whose repository and deployed commit anyone can verify. That changes what the other eight are allowed to imply.Portfolio report
Prove which build is live, or admit you do not knowCase study. A public origin could not state which source it was serving. Rather than document that gap, this closes it: the build stamps its own fingerprint, the origin publishes it, and the deploy refuses to finish if the two disagree.Case study
Eight projects. Eight different finish lines.Portfolio report. A fresh review of the factory's eight projects separates what each can do from the evidence and decisions still needed.Portfolio report
Pirates is learning when not to invent.Field note. The source reconstruction stays behind a parity gate until the original game is accounted for. Expansion waits for evidence.Field note
I Didn't Mean to Build a Software FactoryFounding essay. A practical habit of composing tools grew into a system for directing software agents, checking their work and seeing what survived in the real world.Founding essay
A green build cannot find the real walker.Field note. MAX is a reminder that software qualification ends where physical use begins. The Pi, walker and person using FIND still have to meet in the real world.Field note
The tests passed. The game still looked wrong.Factory incident. Fighter passed its geometry checks and still fell short of the product bar. The factory had measured whether the interface fitted. It had not measured whether the interface worked as a composition.Factory incident
The tests passed. The game still looked wrong.The interface passed automated checks while remaining compositionally poor.Incidents
SHOALSHOT · generated artwork and sharing repairThe readable Share result control opens a reef-backed paper result card. The canonical social preview is 1200 × 630; the transparent wordmark is 1998 × 424 and emblem 1161 × 1161. Public originals are available from the project with A Loftwah Game credit.Evidence
SHOALSHOT · finished-dive sharingPlay a dive, open Pause, choose End Dive, then use Share result on the Dive Summary. Save a 1200 × 630 PNG, copy its caption or use your device’s share options when supported. The card includes the actual mode, rules and game version.Evidence
Fighter · product-line ambition with an explicit proof boundaryThe useful next test is one concrete independent variation, once admitted by the game roadmap. A new generator platform or licensing offer is not justified by the contract alone.Evidence
Asset Hunter · portable delivery with rights and provenanceThe packaging source, architecture contract and owning completed delivery record agree. Reference-only and review-required material remains records rather than asset bytes.Evidence
Portfolio · discovery and reward work remains openThe owning game installation issues, Woodhouse #19 with its project artwork issues, and the holographic/achievement issues remain open without reviewed completion receipts. The reset calls for persuasive product-specific artwork and useful rewards, rather than a uniform visual template.Evidence
Protocol 11 · interaction quality remains openThe latest reports and source review keep #215, #216 and #218 open: card removal/staging can affect ordering, laid-down groups need clear destinations and desktop inner scrolling can hide play. Previous compact-layout repairs do not resolve these newer observations.Evidence
Pirates · optional radio remains plannedCurrent source and the owning issue retain optional Enhanced-mode streaming. Original remains the default offline experience with no FM dependency; an active adapter and hosted deployment were not established.Evidence
bubbles · browser radio interaction evidenceThe guarded owner-preview release and actual-media Chromium/mobile WebKit journeys cover puzzle play, responsive controls, overlays, minimising, recovery and persistence.Evidence
bubbles · exact radio deploymentA stable, recoverable music dock exposes FM music, Original and Off, with saved controls and quiet reload. Presenter shows are discoverable through FM links while native editorial playback remains held.Evidence
bubbles · installed radio client 1.0.0A stable, recoverable music dock exposes FM music, Original and Off, with saved controls and quiet reload. Presenter shows are discoverable through FM links while native editorial playback remains held.Evidence
protocol-11 · browser radio interaction evidenceThe exact Jukebox release and live browser journeys cover native playback, source controls, seeking, preferences, reload and boundary handling. Card interaction quality is assessed separately.Evidence
protocol-11 · exact radio deploymentThe Jukebox combines the original soundtrack, six FM music stations and two shows under one stream owner. Explicit Play, saved controls, bounded refresh and original fallback preserve table feedback.Evidence
protocol-11 · installed radio client 1.0.0The Jukebox combines the original soundtrack, six FM music stations and two shows under one stream owner. Explicit Play, saved controls, bounded refresh and original fallback preserve table feedback.Evidence
fighter · browser radio interaction evidenceExact release receipts and desktop/mobile Chromium/WebKit journeys cover native controls, station rotation, quiet reload and authored gameplay priority. Its host-owned shuffle includes the eight current stations.Evidence
fighter · exact radio deploymentMenu, Settings and Library expose music and both shows. The game audio manager retains authored Battle, Results and Cinema priority, independent effects and opt-in speech; forkable branded versions retain their own presentation.Evidence
fighter · installed radio client 1.1.0Menu, Settings and Library expose music and both shows. The game audio manager retains authored Battle, Results and Cinema priority, independent effects and opt-in speech; forkable branded versions retain their own presentation.Evidence
shoalshot · browser radio interaction evidenceExact production identity and Chromium/WebKit native journeys cover all stations, both shows, playback, shooting, controls and save/reload. One context and streamed media bound resource use.Evidence
shoalshot · exact radio deploymentHome and Pause offer six music stations and two presenter shows through the existing audio owner. Manual Shuffle, saved preferences, independent effects and local fallback preserve the fishing atmosphere.Evidence
shoalshot · installed radio client 1.2.0Home and Pause offer six music stations and two presenter shows through the existing audio owner. Manual Shuffle, saved preferences, independent effects and local fallback preserve the fishing atmosphere.Evidence
LoftwahFM · games and radio discovery deliveredMerged PR #245 records the exact FM release, game catalogue links and aggregate measures that separate visits, playback starts, audible progress and referrals. Test traffic is excluded and games remain unranked while real observations are insufficient.Evidence
LoftwahFM · supported client 1.2.0The owning release records immutable archive integrity and compatible host audio ownership. Client 1.1 adds optional programme/part selection; 1.2 adds optional game analytics. Existing supported pins need no forced upgrade for ordinary music and whole-show playback.Evidence
LoftwahFM · supported client 1.1.0The owning release records immutable archive integrity and compatible host audio ownership. Client 1.1 adds optional programme/part selection; 1.2 adds optional game analytics. Existing supported pins need no forced upgrade for ordinary music and whole-show playback.Evidence
LoftwahFM · supported client 1.0.0The owning release records immutable archive integrity and compatible host audio ownership. Client 1.1 adds optional programme/part selection; 1.2 adds optional game analytics. Existing supported pins need no forced upgrade for ordinary music and whole-show playback.Evidence
Protocol 11 · client implementation in draft reviewThe reviewed package dependency pins the published client archive. The source imports that client and provides an independently owned music transport with Cartridge Club as its default station. The PR remains a draft, distinct from a merged or deployed release.Evidence
LoftwahFM · first original shows publishedBoth public edition pages expose the named shows, their dated publication, music and synthetic presenter scenes. The official station widget was inspected and real media playback advanced after an explicit Play action.Evidence
SHOALSHOT · FM client implementationThe merged integration, package declaration and lockfile were inspected. They pin the published client 1.0.0 archive through the existing game audio owner. Deployment and exact live in-game interaction still require their own evidence.Evidence
pirates · FM adoption plannedThe canonical integration work is linked below. The audited package/lockfile and source tree showed no FM client implementation. Optional Enhanced mode only; Original offline parity unchanged. Client 1.0.0 is the upstream candidate, not an installed game dependency.Evidence
protocol-11 · FM adoption plannedThe canonical integration work is linked below. The audited package/lockfile and source tree showed no FM client implementation. Host-owned table audio. Client 1.0.0 is the upstream candidate, not an installed game dependency.Evidence
Bubbles · FM adoption in progressThe owning issue records an active audio integration lane using client 1.0.0. The audited main package/lockfile and source tree still showed no FM client implementation. Branch activity establishes work in progress, not merged or deployed adoption.Evidence
fighter · FM adoption plannedThe canonical integration work is linked below. The audited package/lockfile and source tree showed no FM client implementation. Host-owned combat audio. Client 1.0.0 is the upstream candidate, not an installed game dependency.Evidence
SHOALSHOT · initial FM hand-off observationAt the initial source audit, the package/lockfile and source tree showed no FM client implementation. A later review on the same date confirmed the merged client; the capability record now links that separate implementation proof.Evidence
LoftwahFM · published music capabilityThe client archive was fetched and its package name, version and SHA-256 checked. Public station and game profile endpoints returned schema 1; profiles require client major 1, with music off and speech disabled by default.Evidence
Asset Hunter · supplied portfolio reviewProve the newer source in production, expand useful handlers and discovery, and observe outside builders completing real hunts.Evidence
Social Club · supplied portfolio reviewResume the core hospitality journey and obtain fresh product, operator and deployment evidence before making readiness claims.Evidence
LoftwahFM · supplied portfolio reviewResume the listening journey and business demonstration, separate preview media from production, and refresh release evidence.Evidence
Pirates · supplied portfolio reviewComplete source-backed parity and reconcile stale operating instructions without weakening the reconstruction boundary.Evidence
MAX · supplied portfolio reviewDemonstrate FIND with a real walker and person, then complete provider and production rollout with measured operating assumptions.Evidence
Protocol 11 · supplied portfolio reviewPhysical iPhone acceptance, sustained play, the final card language and whole-product visual judgement remain separate finish lines.Evidence
SHOALSHOT · supplied portfolio reviewResolve the first-discovery reveal and its exit paths; decide whether automatic fire should interrupt play; qualify the integrated result before release.Evidence
Fighter · supplied portfolio reviewFinish whole-game and sharing journeys, show the current source running in production, and keep architecture changes tied to real failures.Evidence
Bubbles · supplied portfolio reviewRenew exact production evidence and finish whole-product interaction, accessibility and visual acceptance.Evidence
Asset Hunter · the backup drill reports that nobody has used itThis is the most useful thing in the project so far. The catalogue is growing and verified, and the tables that would record a stranger's judgement, report or complaint have never had a row. The failure is the product noticing and refusing to call it green.Evidence
Asset Hunter · the origin names its commit, answers a version endpoint, and reads cleanThree things had to agree: the metadata the page renders, the small endpoint a machine can ask, and the repository head. Agreeing is what makes this evidence about a deployed build rather than about a deploy message.Evidence
Asset Hunter · the public origin names the commit it servesThe site carries its own build identity in the page metadata, so the deployed version can be checked against the repository rather than inferred from a deploy message.Evidence
Social Club · reviewed public snapshotThe larger visual redesign is parked in the supplied report.Evidence
LoftwahFM · reviewed public snapshotThe supplied report describes the expanded business-music roadmap as parked, with little recent application movement.Evidence
Pirates · reviewed public snapshotDeep in archaeology and parity work. The original game must pass its gate before procedural or endless expansion begins.Evidence
MAX · reviewed public snapshotSoftware capability is advancing. The actual Pi, walker and real-world FIND experience remain the defining reality check.Evidence
Protocol 11 · reviewed public snapshotThe supplied report points to qualification and tracker reconciliation as the main unresolved work.Evidence
SHOALSHOT · reviewed public snapshotFunctionally mature and increasingly polished. The supplied report calls for another clean production qualification and promotion pass.Evidence
Fighter · reviewed public snapshotFunctional maturity is very high. The reported remaining work is whole-game quality convergence, not a greenfield prototype.Evidence
Bubbles · reviewed public snapshotMechanically and functionally very mature. The current convergence order places Bubbles closest to its stated finish line.Evidence
Bubbles · FM music delivered · owner-preview limitsA stable, recoverable music dock exposes FM music, Original and Off, with saved controls and quiet reload. Presenter shows are discoverable through FM links while native editorial playback remains held. Installed client 1.0.0. The guarded owner-preview release and actual-media Chromium/mobile WebKit journeys cover puzzle play, responsive controls, overlays, minimising, recovery and persistence.Statuses
Fighter · Playable battler · distinct-game foundation proposedFighter remains the default collectible squad battler. Its current product contract proposes distinct games varying identity, characters, world, Story, artwork and audio around proven gameplay. It explicitly says a configurable product boundary and independently releasable games have not yet been proved. Radio delivery retains the separate 11 October release and browser review.Statuses
SHOALSHOT · Finished dives ready to shareFinished dives export a locally generated 1200 × 630 PNG and copyable caption with a stable play link. The later 12 October artwork repair replaces the earlier SVG branding with generated wordmark and emblem artwork. The result card now uses a reef-backed paper composition with actual local results; game versions and hashes are omitted from the card and caption. Native file sharing is offered where supported; Save PNG remains available. The earlier finished-dive release remains separately recorded, and the game-owned radio integration is unchanged.Statuses
Protocol 11 · Playable with radio · interaction repair neededThe Jukebox combines the original soundtrack, six FM music stations and two shows under one stream owner. Explicit Play, saved controls, bounded refresh and original fallback preserve table feedback. Installed client 1.0.0. The exact Jukebox release and live browser journeys cover native playback, source controls, seeking, preferences, reload and boundary handling. Card interaction quality is assessed separately.Statuses
MAX · Software prototype · physical proof openThe software platform is substantial, but the report records no new delivery in this period. Finding the real walker, mounted hardware and voice behaviour remain physical questions.Statuses
Pirates · Offline parity first · radio plannedThe optional Enhanced-mode radio issue is represented, but no current adapter or deployed radio adoption is established. Original remains the default offline experience. Source-parity work and project-specific presentation remain the product foundation.Statuses
LoftwahFM · Shared radio live · catalogue and mix expandingClient 1.2.0, compatible pinned 1.0.0/1.1.0 releases, six music stations, two curated presenter shows and game-linked discovery/aggregate analytics are delivered. Four game integrations have exact deployed browser receipts. LoftwahFM owns the catalogue and programming; each game retains its own audio and identity.Statuses
Social Club · Hospitality prototype · delivery pausedThe report records no new product movement. The hospitality product has an established software direction, with the remaining outcome waiting on product execution rather than a congested review queue.Statuses
Asset Hunter · Portable packs implemented · independent use unprovenThe reviewed pack builder checks redistribution rights before fetching payloads, carries recorded provenance and attribution, verifies manifested bytes and produces reproducible ZIPs. Review-required and reference-only resources remain records without redistributed payloads. Local-folder ingestion supports discovery beyond GitHub.Statuses
