Warp Jacquard Loom

Progress isn't a bar — it's a tapestry. In Warp the loom weaves cloth row by coloured row, and the cloth growing up your screen is the very thing you're paid for. Watch it fill in, pick by pick, in a warm Georgian weaver's workshop. Warp is an idle weaving tycoon built on one honest idea: thread is finite. You program the weave with PATTERN CARDS — each card is a punch-row naming which of your five warp threads lift on every pick. The loom draws that thread from a per-colour SPOOL you can actually run empty. Let a colour's spool run dry and its warp goes slack and grey; the cloth shows an undyed slub gap until you refill it or the spinning jenny tops it up. Rarer colours and longer solid runs weave richer cloth and pay more ells. Grow the workshop: buy more shuttles for parallel looms, a faster beater for quicker picks, bigger spools, a spinning jenny that refills while you weave, and dye vats that unlock crimson, indigo, saffron and teal. When the tapestry is finished, Cut the Cloth to bank heirloom patterns — a permanent multiplier that carries your dye vats into a fresh warp. Then fill the ORDER BOOK: named clients commission particular cloth — so many rows of a certain card, a long unbroken run of indigo, a cut with every colour in the weave — and pay bounties and six new pattern cards on delivery. And every Cut now offers a choice: bank one of three FAMILY PATTERNS, from twelve permanent workshop perks — a longer draw, deeper vats, a night shuttle — collected forever in the Pattern Book. And now, hang the MASTERWORKS: the Gallery commissions ten figured tapestries — a founder's sampler, a harbour pennant, a coronation hanging — each a plan of panels demanding so many rows of one particular card. Mount a work beside the loom and switch cards deliberately to weave it panel by panel; the finished piece hangs in the gallery forever, paying a bounty now and permanent RENOWN that raises your cloth value for good. It runs while you're away: the loom keeps weaving for up to an hour free — or all night with an optional one-time upgrade — and pays you on return. Prefer a different mood at the loom? The Dye Book adds three purely cosmetic dye lots that re-colour every thread. • Progress you can see — a real tapestry that grows row by coloured row • Program the weave with pattern cards; each names which threads lift • A conserved, per-colour thread economy — run a spool dry and the cloth gaps • Rarer colours and longer runs multiply your cloth value • Fill the Order Book — client commissions pay bounties and unlock new cards • Bank a family pattern at every Cut — choose one of three permanent perks • Weave ten figured MASTERWORKS panel by panel — hang them for permanent renown • Idle-friendly: the loom weaves offline and pays you on return • Fully offline, no account, nothing collected Dress the warp. Weave the cloth.
