ONE-LINE
--------
A tiny crew from the crashed Vessel, living right above your taskbar: they fight, loot
and level while you work.

WHAT IT IS
----------
- A pixel salvage crew walks a thin strip along the edge of your screen. The strip is a
  diorama, not a window: no box, no frame, just the walkway and whoever is on it.
- Six free classes: Trooper, Scrapper, Relic Hunter, Machinist, Medic, Voidcaller.
  You start with one survivor and nothing equipped; the rest arrive as drop pods.
- Every level is a draft: three adaptations from the class pool, keep one. Abilities
  unlock at fixed levels and grow by use.
- A proper loot game underneath: eight material tiers, ten rarities, rolled affixes with
  visible roll quality, named Powers, three socket kinds, crew kits, and Uniques with
  their own sprites and lore.
- The Fabricator never fails: break down, fuse six into one rarity up, retune, socket.
- Close the game and the crew keeps working: an offline simulation of your current stage
  (8 hours base), reported when you return.
- Seven zones from the Lost Vessel universe, ten stages each, four depths.
- Steam Market: Legendary and above, Uniques and materials from Rare up trade between
  players. Common to Epic stay account-bound. Daily cap on tradable drops, seven-day lock
  on new ones, a game fee per trade. The studio never sells gear, keys or boosts and
  never nerfs an item you own.

THE LAZY FROG DEAL
------------------
Free forever. No pay-to-win. Nothing that matters is ever for sale; the studio sells
cosmetics only, and nothing you buy ever expires.

TAGLINE
-------
DESKTOP COMPANION IDLE. A TINY CREW, RIGHT ABOVE YOUR TASKBAR.
