Stage 1: tile maps, walls, fog of war, aggro, scrolling camera
Replaces the fixed centred arena with per-world tile geometry, which is the
foundation the remaining features sit on.

- MapGrid: tile grid with three independent flags -- blocks movement, bullets,
  sight -- so a pit stops feet but not bullets or eyes, and a barricade stops
  feet and bullets but not eyes. Circle collision with per-axis sliding, and
  Bresenham line of sight shared by fog and aggro.
- MapGen: rooms and corridors generated from (seed, depth), with hand-authored
  boss arenas from Rooms stamped in first so a corridor can never carve through
  a designed fight. Reachability from spawn to boss is asserted over 40 seeds --
  "usually connected" is the failure mode that ruins one run in twenty.
- Dungeons are populated at creation, per room, instead of gating on waves. You
  explore and choose your fights; the run ends when the boss dies, not when the
  map is swept. Boss rooms have no lock, so walking out is always available.
- Aggro: enemies need range AND line of sight, so a dungeon stays quiet until
  engaged and cover actually protects.
- Hard fog, scrolling camera, and terrain rendering.

Maps are streamed per peer in chunks around that peer's player, and the seed is
deliberately NOT sent -- a client holding it could regenerate the whole dungeon,
which is a map hack for free. Stream radius (900u) is wider than view radius
(460u) because the client predicts movement against walls and simulates bullets
that die on them; the accepted cost is a cheater seeing a little further than
the fog, never the floor plan.

Partial map knowledge means wall deaths must be announced rather than derived.
A test caught the subtle half of that: out-of-bounds tiles read as WALL by
design, so checking geometry before bounds reported every bullet leaving the map
as a wall kill.

128 tests (was 103); check.sh, test.sh and smoke.sh pass. 0.26 ms/tick with 4
players and a boss, ~65x headroom.

Transcience

Top-down twin-stick bullet-hell with a dedicated, server-authoritative backend. Godot 4.7, GDScript, no external runtime dependencies.

Play

tools/server.sh                      # dedicated server on :27015
tools/client.sh --join --name ada    # connect a client

Or run one client and press Host and play for a listen server.

Controls — WASD move, mouse aim, LMB fire, E on the ring in the hub to enter a dungeon, hold F for three seconds to escape back to the hub.

Develop

tools/check.sh    # parse-check every script      ~5s
tools/test.sh     # GUT suite, headless           ~2s
tools/smoke.sh    # server + 2 bot clients, ENet  ~35s
godot --headless --path . --script tools/bench.gd

Read CLAUDE.md first — it is short, and the Godot CLI gotchas in it will otherwise cost an afternoon.

What is here

Twin-stick bullet hell Server-simulated bullet field, ~350 concurrent bullets at 0.24 ms/tick.
Authoritative multiplayer Clients send input only. Hits, damage, death and instance transfers are server decisions. Prediction + reconciliation for the local player.
Enemies Four readable behaviours (static, drift, orbit, approach, strafe) composed with bullet emitters.
Boss The Warden of the Fold: stationary, four phases, each adding one idea. Defined entirely as data.
Lobby hub Shared persistent instance with a portal into dungeon runs.
Emergency escape Three-second channel back to the hub, cancelled by damage.
