What kind of publisher are you?
Prototype 08

This is a small, real independent press in Milan — made playable. Write pages. Bind them with wire or glue. Sell them at the till, or ship a bulk order out to a bookshop. Water the plants. Pet the dog. Say hello to whoever's in the room. Every action costs something — focus, warmth, purpose, time, or money — and every action opens the next one. See how long you can keep the place running.

Walk in free as a Window Wanderer — look, touch, learn, change nothing. Or become a Bindwright: spend real focus and real money to actually run the studio, like a funder, a collaborator, a co-conspirator. Half of what you build here is fiction. The books are not — they're real, made by a real press, and you can go buy them.

Arrow keys / WASD to move. Space to act. Esc to leave a station.

Full pipeline now: choose Write or Design for each page (two different fake apps, two different costs) → Print it → Bind it → sell at the till, ship from the warehouse, or send a newsletter to boost demand. Random prompts — coffee, the dog, the plants — show up on their own; answer them or don't. Real links to the actual books live on the title screen and in the finished shop.
