THREADMILL
Write code that controls an entire robotic workforce. Start with one worker, then scale to 128. Share jobs, feed machines, and adapt when power fails. Test your code in new facilities, then tune it to do more with less.

About This Game

ONE PROGRAM. EVERY WORKER.

Write code that grows from controlling one robot into running an industrial swarm.

WRITE THE SYSTEM

Every worker runs your code. Change a line, run it again, and watch the whole system respond.

SCALE IT

Start with one. Build a workforce of up to 128 robots—all running the same program.

BUILD YOUR KERNEL

Draft Kernel Mutations that change what your program can do. Watch your build activate as it runs.

Shared Memory lights in the Kernel Rack as a scout shares discoveries with other workers beside the running scout code.

BUILD A FACTORY

Coordinate workers, feed processors, and move finished output through a system you programmed yourself.

ADAPT

Supply shifts. Power fails. Your plans break. Rewrite your system and keep it alive.

OPTIMIZE

Generated facilities and seeded challenges give you new systems to solve. More workers don't always mean better code.

A 128-worker facility operates beside its actual source code, with processing, cargo, and power-aware logic visible.
