A Unix Pipe Factory Game
Your first time loading might take awhile... it's a full VM.
You place "Input" machines that produce streams of bytes. You use conveyor belts to feed those bytes through other machines which produce transformations, and then to "Output" machines which produce audio or visual effects.
The game uses v86 to run a real Linux VM in the browser. I use the 9p filesystem to enable IPC via FIFO pipes, so shell commands can stream data continuously rather than just running once.
Features: - 30+ machine types (sources, filters, routers, packers, audio synthesis, displays) - "Command" machines that pipe data through real shell commands - Streaming mode for persistent processes - Shareable factories via URL - Chiptune audio engine (oscillators, Game Boy noise channel) + additional 808 drum machine
Try the presets in the menu bar (top left) to see what's possible. Requires WASM and may take a moment to load on slower connections.
