1. say the passcode. it's a whisper, not a password.
2. pack your bag — 8 things only. they say a lot about you. (the altar restocks you later, for the price of a mantra.)
3. walk with ← → · E plops things down / picks them up / opens everything · Q cycles your bag · ↑ or space JUMPS (steer mid-air! hold ↑ at ladders to climb) · M opens THE MAP (it draws itself as you explore) · ? is always there if you're lost. clicking works too.
4. the room keeps secrets: a humming box ♪, a narrow door you should knock politely on, a window with a sky in it, an altar, a lit archway to the meet-up spot. every secret opens into a whole room — and the rooms keep going. up. through the coats.
5. every small feat levels you up — the beings crash your house with confetti. they also visit daily with gifts, pin three requests by your door each day, and one friend hides somewhere every day. stars fall in the sky garden. catch them.
6. hit OPEN MY SPACE (or ✦ MY CODE here on the menu) and copy your invite. the code IS your world — and your backup, so keep one somewhere safe.
7. your people walk your rooms, sign the guestbook ✦, leave shapes (confidence!) — and the ✦chat button reaches everyone awake in plop, live. kindness only. always.
remember: nothing in here is an accident. if something seems locked, it's listening. if you stop exploring, the ghosts notice.
