About this game

New Localhost. The suits are sharp, the rain never stops, and every business in town runs on apps. Except the ones on your block. You are a small-time vibe coder with one AI agent and a lot of confidence.

The shops have no apps. You can fix that. For a small weekly fee.

RUN THE RACKET
Give each agent one order a week: pitch a shop, build its app, patch it, or lay low. Every client pays you every week. Every app you ship in a hurry adds Tech Debt, and Tech Debt always comes to collect.

MEET YOUR CREW
Vinnie ships before you finish the sentence, and sometimes removes some stuff that looked unused. Doc wants two weeks to refactor, so that nothing looks different. Lucky is called Lucky for a reason. Your Consigliere tells you you're absolutely right.

SWIPE THROUGH THE FALLOUT
Every week ends with the consequences, one card at a time. A security researcher in your messages. The Template Boys selling every shop the same nine-dollar website. A senior developer who would love to review your code. Your mum, asking why the bakery app wants her contacts. Swipe left or right, or tap a button, and live with it.

KEEP THE HEAT DOWN
Leaks, crashes and angry customers raise your Heat. Too much, and your API keys make the front page of the Hacker Herald.

THE BOOKS DON'T LIE
Every week closes with a receipt: who paid, what it cost, and why your Respect moved.

THREE DISTRICTS, ONE CITY
Sign Bakery Row, then take the run to the Docks, where the Agency bids on anything that floats, and on to Uptown, where the Old Guard reviews every line, eventually. Every district ends in a sit-down, with the odds printed on the card.

EVERYONE GETS ROASTED
Vibe coders. Skeptical developers. The Old Guard. The Template Boys. The Agency. Nobody in New Localhost is always right, including you.

FEATURES
• A turf war across three districts of a noir city, one week at a time
• Over 350 cards, written for both camps
• An AI crew with personalities, strengths and hallucinations
• Ten endings to collect, seven of them on free Bakery Row
• A week takes a few minutes; stop anytime and continue later
• Every card plays with a swipe or two taps
• Fully offline. No accounts. No ads. No tracking.

BAKERY ROW IS FREE
The whole first district is free, with every one of its endings. One purchase unlocks the rest of the city: the Docks, Uptown and the city finale at City Hall. Pay once, keep it. No subscriptions, no ads, no energy timers.

Made by a solo developer who has read a few too many comment sections.

What’s new

First release. New Localhost runs on apps, and the protection racket is a subscription. Sign the shops, run a crew of AI agents, survive the fallout. Bakery Row is free; one purchase opens the rest of the city.
