8888 machines from a dead network. Mint is Friday. This is what you're getting, what it does, and when everything lands.

**01 The Game

*Every Node comes with a character. The one in the screenshot is Dean. Yours will look different. Body, gear and weapon are built from the same trait pool the collection is drawn from, so no two characters match. (Total trait-pool over 5200 items) *

The Dungeon runs on a 12-shard system. Twelve levels, one shard per level. The bar at the bottom of the screen is your progress. 1/12 means the first level is cleared. Clear all twelve and you hold a full set.

A full set forges a Share. Each Share hard-links to a random real stock at the moment you forge it. Nobody picks, nobody re-rolls. From then on the stock's chart drives the art. Green days render hotter. Red days decay. Rarity isn't fixed on this collection. It tracks the market.

Runs are optional. A run takes your Node out and pushes its sync above the idle rate. The boost is capped, so nobody outgrinds the network. Anything over the cap spills to random sleeping Nodes. A wallet that never opens the game still syncs. It just syncs slower.

**02 Behind the scenes

**The Dungeon is built tile by tile. Rooms are laid out on paper first, then placed on screen one pixel at a time. No generated assets. Every room, enemy and item is drawn by hand.

This reel is the only footage from inside the Dungeon until reveal.

**03 The Art

**Over 5,200 traits. Three of the base forms are shown above.

Reveal is progressive. What you mint is the dormant state. When the network hits a collective unlock, new art states and relics ship to every Node at the same time. Same chassis, more scars, more sync, bigger cut. The machine you mint is the base version of the one you'll be holding a year from now.

**04 The Numbers

**We modeled two scenarios. Inputs are trading volume and token market cap. Outputs are what one Node would receive over year one.
