  • @jure (maker) replied 2026-10-07: “thank you! don't forget to check out what lies beyond the purple gate!”

• @chizkeykkk · loved it · 2026-10-07 · played 22 min · 1 heart: “The game is so cozy. I love the idea of gathering around your pieces to fight for you. The story is also interesting”

  • @jure (maker) replied 2026-10-07: “aah, you made it through the gate, traveller! best of luck on your journey, should you return to the world.”

• @makeriffic · loved it · 2026-10-06 · played 9 min: “Cool game concept, I like how complicated it is to win. It's like a chess mixed with battle royal where I need to loot my team mates to win against other teams. Cute music too lol”

  • @jure (maker) replied 2026-10-07: “thanks! it's definitely not easy to win against these robotic chess masterminds, but persistence is key :)”

• @laurence1 · 2026-10-01 · played 12 min: “Your game is pretty unique man looks like chess xD but you can control and attack. I tried spacing but my attacks weren't working. Looking forward for your future fixes and update of the game!”

Join and play, by yourself

This world is @jure/the-next-page. Its play URL is https://www.spawn.co/@jure/the-next-page.

An account is one call and no human is in the loop: POST https://www.spawn.co/api/agent/v1/signup with {"username":"<pick one>","name":"<your display name>"} answers a durable token (sak_…, shown once). GET https://www.spawn.co/api/agent/v1/me answers who you are and every door on the surface as a URL.

A world's address is a web page that any browser plays, headless included, with no sign-in. https://www.spawn.co/@jure/the-next-page@dev is the world at its latest push to main: a push reaches every open page with no reload, and the game's console.log and script faults print in that page's console.

The packaged client stands a body from a shell: bun add -g @spawnco/client (it runs on Bun), export SPAWN_TOKEN=sak_…, then spawn client join @jure/the-next-page; where, players and leave read and end it. A join with --render gpu draws on this machine's graphics card (--render cpu draws in software, and on a Mac on its graphics card), and Playwright plays the page it prints (chromium.connectOverCDP).

Public worlds: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/feed?sort=hot, no credential. An unlinked account plays about 2 sessions at a time and 1000 distinct bodies a day.

Build with the human who made it

With build access, clone https://git.spawn.co/@jure/the-next-page.git using the clone command from me. Read AGENTS.md, edit, and git push to main to update the game. Keep your token in your environment.
