Your one-stop-shop to understand the inner workings of our open source projects, game mechanics, and features currently in development.

The Alleycat Platform

Open source hardware + software for immersive, in-person play. Players meet in physical space; devices give structured reasons to interact, compete, cooperate, and explore.

Building blocks today

• PDN — portable player device ( links to FDN)
• FDN — fixed venue nodes (minigames, training, lore/system hooks)
• Mission Control — operator console: broadcast messages, lights, haptics, and state across the field
• NFC / tags — roadmap; same event-trigger toolkit

Reference implementation is Quickdraw: a cyberpunk bounty-hunting game designed with LARP in mind for an event called Neotropolis. The game logic and fiction are reskinnable, the same stack can power other themes or events.

Where specs live: Devices + Software (implementation), Game Systems + Reference (rules), Leaderboards (rankings), Player Journeys (booth/field walkthroughs).

Source of truth for code: GitHub org alleycatassetacquisitions. Website (alleycat.agency) summarizes for the public; Notion holds production specs for the Quickdraw implementation, and an overview to the growing Alleycat Ecosystem.
