Forgiving cable control
Move the winch, pay out line and use authored anchor points without fighting knots or uncontrolled rope physics.
TWO PLAYABLE COASTAL CONTRACTS · IN DEVELOPMENTThe
The
Salvage Crew
Lower a specialist team into unstable wrecks and bring survivors home using one cable as your road, tool and lifeline.
- 6–12 minute jobs
- Two authored contracts
- Keyboard, pointer & touch
- Phase checkpoints
FULL GAME TARGET$1.99
THE CABLE IS THE GAME
Read the wreck. Route the line. Commit to the rescue.
The Salvage Crew uses a bounded cable model and authored support graphs. The line feels tactile, but every important failure is forecast, delayed and recoverable.
Visible structural stakes
Preview what a cut will move, which route will open and what support will inherit the load.
Competent specialists
Riggers, engineers and medics communicate clearly, recover from mistakes and always retain a route home.
COASTAL RECOVERY · JOBS 01–02
One rescue framework, two very different wrecks.
Stabilise a flooded commuter ferry in Last Crossing, then secure a storm-battered signal mast in Breakwater Signal. Both jobs use the same deterministic cable, specialist and structural-forecast systems.
- Three playable specialists
- Four cable tools
- Mission-specific checkpoints
- Separate best results
JOB 01 · FLOODED FERRY
Last Crossing
A commuter ferry rests against the harbour wall with water rising through the lower deck. A delivery van blocks the clean extraction route while helping hold the deck in place.
- Required
- Restore the pump and return all three survivors.
- Structural decision
- Install a brace before cutting the van chain.
- Optional
- Recover the navigation recorder from the flooded stern.
- Gold
- Keep structural damage low and avoid emergency haul.
JOB 02 · STORM BREAKWATER
Breakwater Signal
Heavy seas have twisted the north signal mast over a maintenance platform. A jammed gate is sharing the load while two harbour workers remain cut off.
- Required
- Isolate the feeder and return both harbour workers.
- Structural decision
- Brace the mast before releasing the maintenance gate.
- Optional
- Recover the tide logger from the outer platform.
- Gold
- Preserve mast integrity and keep cable load controlled.
SHARED PRODUCTION RUNTIME
Built as a campaign, not two demos.
Both contracts load through validated mission definitions. Geometry, objectives, role and tool requirements, hazards, structural branches, grading and saves are mission data rather than title-specific code.
RESCUE WITHOUT GOTCHAS
Assists preserve progression.
Automatic tension release, an indestructible cable, slower collapse and no-time grades are normal operational settings. They do not block completion or campaign records.
- Indestructible cable
- Automatic release
- Slower collapse
- No-time grades
- High-contrast markers
- Reduced motion
- Visual warning duplication
- Responsive touch controls
