December 31st, 1999. You're the night dispatcher.

Fires, collapses, break-ins and every unit in the city moves when you type.

HOW TO PLAY:

  •  Type a unit's name — FOX, MERCY or KING — and its radio channel is yours.
  •  Type a street name and the unit rolls. The last letter fires the word.
  •   When a phone marker pulses on the map, type CHECK and its number to pick up.

Callers warn you about closed roads — ignore them and you'll find out the hard way.  And some callers… say it's already past midnight where they are. If a voice feels wrong, CHECK it twice to trace the line. That's all I'll say.

There's a short guided first night, and a Rookie mode if typing under pressure isn't your thing. Every shift ends at midnight. One way or another.

Keyboard only, BACKSPACE fixes a typo, ENTER throws the word away, ESC opens the menu. Play with sound on, the city is different at night.

This is my first game jam ever. If you play it, I'd genuinely love to know how the typing difficulty felt — that's the thing I tweaked until the last hour.
