A WebAssembly preservation initiative that ports reconstructed or source-released games to the browser.

Why it surfaced

wasm.ltd lets players run complete games with WebGPU, audio, and even browser-to-browser LAN multiplayer, while supplying their own Steam, GOG, or disc files rather than downloading redistributed copies. Its lab already points toward Dino Crisis via a WebAssembly port of Proton and WINE, making this both a playable project and an argument for browser-based game preservation.

Thirty Patents for the Grave

August 13’s newborn domains include 30 safety-coffin patents, lost notices for false teeth and a box of hair, short films playing in 100 Tokyo taxis, and a Queensland river view arranged gauge by gauge downstream.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-13 Domain Arrivals issue.
