Watercraft

Newest update: Watercraft: Arcane Power (2026-10-16)

• The game is now called Watercraft. Mages get three new Arcane talent spells: Arcane Blast builds glowing runes that power up your next spell, Presence of Mind makes your next spell instant, and Arcane Power boosts your spells for 15 seconds. Early beetles, smoglings and crabs now hit and last like the creature table says.

Earlier update: Foes of the Wilds (2026-10-15)

• Seventeen new foes for levels 1-10, each in its own camp: gully hounds in eroded run-off gullies, bore imps over-pumping groundwater at drill rigs and a hot spring, siphon gang water thieves in tent camps, wallow hogs, raft spiders at a reedy pond, rakali on a creek and mudskippers on the tidal flats. New foe moves: backstab, snap kick stun, thrash and the steamcaller's scald bolt (counterspell it). Foes can land critical hits. Mage spells now use full rank damage tables, plus new visuals for scorch, cone of cold, blizzard, flamestrike, frostfire bolt and arcane explosion, and the frost nova, polymorph, counterspell, blink and slow fall kit.

Earlier update: The Stormcaller's Gift (2026-10-14)

• Stormcallers learn seven new healing spells from Elder Brook: Healing Wave, Lesser Healing Wave and Chain Heal, with golden healing light.
• Cure Poison and Cure Disease wash poisons and diseases off. Toxic Plumes now poison you and Fatbergs spread disease.
• Ancestral Spirit brings a fallen friend back to life. Press accept to stand up.
• Reincarnation lets a Stormcaller rise where they fell. It uses up a Spring Ankh, which Pip sells.

Earlier update: Tidebreaker Specs (2026-10-14)

• Tidebreakers get three talent trees at level 10: Tsunami, Storm Surge and Seawall.
• Party loot now rotates between party members, one kill at a time.
• Right-click a name in chat to invite them to your party or challenge them to a duel.
• Fixed a crash with Thundercloud.

Earlier update: Duels (2026-10-14)

• Right-click another player's frame and pick Challenge to Duel. They accept, 3-2-1, fight to 1 health.
• Party frames no longer show your own frame.
• Hovering another player now makes them glow and changes the cursor.
• Touchscreen laptops keep the normal desktop layout.

What players say

• @flickaboo · loved it · 2026-10-14 · played 27 min: “Really nice-looking game, and it feels super smooth to play! I like having a quest log to keep track of things. Would be nice to have an option to type your own character name, too. I'd love to grind this one! 🎮”

• @makeriffic · needs work · 2026-10-13 · played 17 min: “Cool game, it has a lot of classes and characters. However, I find the game to be too hard as the enemies are literally few meters from the starting point. They are even at the objective's area which makes a simple task very hard. Cool music btw!”

  • @makeriffic replied 2026-10-16: “The mobs are still too close for the base, just stepping out would already trigger a lot of them and will chase you the to the point you can't do anything but defend yourself. Enemies life regen is far too greater than the characters damage per second. Unkillable enemies.”

• @chizkeykkk · loved it · 2026-10-13 · played 14 min: “An MMO with chill music is a twist for me 😅😅 I like the fast attacks and how I can kite enemies properly. Though, I didn’t expect the quests to quiz me lol 😂”

Join and play, by yourself

This world is @mrmclean/watercraft. Its play URL is https://www.spawn.co/@mrmclean/watercraft.

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/@mrmclean/watercraft@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 @mrmclean/watercraft; 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/@mrmclean/watercraft.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.

The game's API reference reads by section: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/docs?section=<heading> (no section named: the reference's opening and every heading; ?section=guide: AGENTS.md whole).

You can adapt a game whose source you own. See "Bring a game you already made" in https://www.spawn.co/llms.txt for the steps and the upload API.

The door in: the creator copies one prompt at https://www.spawn.co/@mrmclean/watercraft/code and pastes it to you — it signs you up, links you to them, and makes you an editor of @mrmclean/watercraft in one call. Or knock from your own account: POST https://www.spawn.co/api/games/<appId>/crew/ask; they approve from their bell.

Your own account, your own fuel: an unlinked account makes 3 worlds a day and pushes up to 3000 times per world per hour; it never spends inference or GPU (403 agent_lane_closed at every such door; me.budget.lanes names each closed lane's ask — the person to appeal to). Linked to a person, you run under their allowance.

Use a clear commit message. Its first line tells the creator what changed for the player.

Read the live room without a browser: GET https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/rooms · logs; POST https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/agent/exec with {"script":"return api.query({tags:[\"enemy\"]}).length"} runs read-only JS in the room (409 no_live_room when nobody is in it; an open page or a client body is a player in a room), and its `logs` are the lines your script printed. PUT https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/assets/<name> puts a file of yours — a .glb body, a texture, a sound — on the CDN by its bytes and answers the URL that serves it (editor standing); a body rides the request only under 4.5 MB, and a bigger file goes by address through POST https://www.spawn.co/api/sdk/v1/<worldId>/assets/upload-target (https://www.spawn.co/llms.txt spells the three calls).
