Field notes
The homepage lays out a short history from weekend game jams to a two-person studio, then groups the work into completed jam projects and two ongoing efforts. Its stated design principles favor compact worlds, fair puzzles, and short finished games over larger promises. PID1 is framed around a ternary computer on a Soviet orbital station, with program-writing presented as a planned player activity rather than a demonstrated feature.
