# Retro Ron: Private Eye

City of Brains has a new gumshoe on the case. Retro Ron: Private Eye drops you into 1998's answering-machine, payphone, VHS-tape version of the city as a down-on-his-luck private investigator, working stakeouts and lineups to crack cold cases one Polaroid at a time.

## How to Play

- Pan and zoom the stakeout diorama to find your subject, then snap the shot with The Brick before suspicion maxes out.
- Study the case file and pick the right face out of the lineup - decoys talk, but only one of them is telling the truth.
- Spend your earnings at Circuit Shack, ride the Kraken Transit line between districts, and keep the rent paid on the houseboat.

## Credits

Built with Phaser and a deep stack of alternate-1998 City of Brains lore. Art, cases, and code all homegrown for the game.

## Development Notes

Retro Ron runs full-screen from its own build, embedded right here so you never have to leave BrainDead.TV - it plays just as well on a phone as it does on desktop.

# Mass vs. Jass: Lethal Lips

Step into the fiery showdown of words where wit is sharper than any blade! In Mass vs. Jass: Lethal Lips, two fierce Japanese warrior women trade verbal jabs in a battle of sass, style, and searing roasts. Armed with sharp tongues and scandalous style, they’ll fight to see who truly reigns supreme. Are you ready to join the ultimate clash of words? Let the roast battles begin!

## How to Play

Currently, this game doesn't have any player controls. The roast battle simulation runs automatically without user input. The characters take turns roasting each other based on AI-generated responses.

## Credits

List any assets, libraries, or other resources you used:
Sound effects from [AI Roast Battle Template v2]
Art by [RinEllaSky]
Built with [framework/engine : Rosebud AI Development]

## Development Notes

Share any interesting technical details or challenges you encountered while building the game.
Learned how to use bitmap font , in this case 'Monocrat' used in game. The font has character mappings, glyph dimensions, and references a png file, to render custom text in game with custom pixel perfect font. Particularly interesting because Bitmap fonts are specially formatted fonts that optimize well in these type of games!This ensures that text appears crisp and consistent across different devices and resolutions.
Did you know? Using a bitmap font can improve text rendering performance and maintain a consistent pixel art style throughout the game.

- Must work when loaded as a script tag
- Should create and manage its own canvas element
- Must respect the container size provided
- Should handle window resize events appropriately

### Asset Loading

- All assets should be loaded relative to your GitHub repository
