Graphweaver

The Loom is torn. You are the Weaver. Walk a huge graph, weave its edges while Tension drains you, spend essence on a branching skill tree, and try to survive the Core Edge that ends each map.

This is an early prototype. Balance, content, and saves may still change.

How you play

• From a node, walk toward a glowing strand to weave it. Health drops while you slide.
• Abort with S if the Tension is too high. Progress on that strand is lost.
• Claim golden Loom Knots to unseal the Core, then weave the red finish line.
• Death retries the same graph: skills and exploration stay, zip routes reset.
• The skill tree opens on death and after a clear — 71 skills across six branches.

The maps

The Loom teaches the loop. Then The Sapling, The Thicket (Weevils hunt unwoven strands), The Heartwood, The Canopy (Bloom nodes and a companion Wisp), and The Taproot (a three-stage Core).

Prototype notes

• One life per run. Stillness unravels you if you linger on a node too long.
• Progress saves when you pause, change maps, or quit.
• The macOS build is Apple Silicon and unsigned. Windows is the main download.
