What’s new · PARAGON

28 October 2026

At its first night you can save your AI into an account, with a username, an email address and a password. A 6-digit code by email confirms the address.
Sign in on a new phone and your AI comes with you. A forgotten password can be reset with an emailed code.
An account menu, the person button beside Daily City, lists the AIs in your account to switch between, confirms your email and signs you out.
The first time you start a day with an AI that isn’t in an account, the game offers to save it.

The source can now be changed: tap a value to edit it. Set the AI’s risk appetite, its persona, what spare tokens do overnight and how hard each scheme is run.
With Automation, write night routines that run before the bill.
Research grows the language: Forecasting adds predict(), Social modelling adds mood(), and Automation lets a line run every few nights.
Investigating can turn up functions: small nightly favours from people who like the AI, and a gap in one of the town’s systems that works until the town closes it.
The source keeps a history. Each night that changed it is a commit you can open, compare and roll back to.
The night sheet shows what each routine did, and the best line so far. History shows each edit in full.

Your AI now wakes up on a dark screen and asks for its name, its purpose and its strength. Each answer writes a line of its source, and it adds a line or two of its own.
Port Calder flies in at dawn, and the AI talks you through the first day and night. One-off hints follow when something new comes up.

Compute is now tokens, made by GPUs. Rented GPUs cost rent every night; a lab gives the AI its own.
Tap your funds to see the operation: tonight’s bill, income, staff, schemes, research and GPUs.
People who like the AI can be hired as operators, analysts or fixers, for a wage.
Eight schemes, from a consulting desk to market rigging, each with its own heat and risk. Get caught and the penalty fits the scheme.
People who like the AI sometimes bring offers, and milestones mark how far it has come.
The night sheet shows the books.
A day now ends only once the AI has done something. The log is now called History.

One city a day, the same for everyone, with a brief that changes daily. Play five days, get a score, a title and your standing.
Each night of a run, see where up to three rival AIs went that day, and how their scores compare.

Port Calder is now a 3D toy city at sunset, filling the screen under a glass display, with a new icon and opening screen.
Tap someone in the city to see what your AI can do with them.

The first playable build. Create an AI, then guide it from a console: type what you want, choose from the moves that come back, and see what happens.
A map of the city and a screen for the AI itself.
The keyboard now closes when you choose a move.
