OMERTÀ — Family Business

A single-file, zero-dependency browser homage to the classic Mafia Wars formula, in a warm light palette with hand-built SVG art.

The hooks

• Energy, stamina & health that regenerate on real-time timers (and while you're away, up to 8 hours)
• Character classes — Maniac, Fearless, or Mogul, chosen once at the start
• Six tiers of jobs (Street Thug → Boss of the City) with mastery stars, district bonuses, and consumable supply requirements that send you farming earlier tiers
• Collections — four themed 7-piece loot sets; vault a complete set for a permanent perk
• Leveling with full bar refills, 3 skill points, and a favor point per level
• Turf fights against escalating rivals with portrait art; losses cost 10% of cash on hand, so use the bank (10% deposit fee)
• The Hitlist — three high-stakes contracts that scale with your reputation, on 3-hour respawns
• Robbing — a quieter stamina sink with its own risk/reward curve and Heist Set drops
• Boss fights with persistent HP, unique loot, and tougher respawns
• Properties with passive hourly income (earns offline) and escalating prices
• Store & crew — weapons, armor, vehicles, plus favor-exclusive gear
• Favor points — a premium-style currency earned entirely in-game; spend on refills, heals, or exclusives
• Havana (level 35) and Moscow (level 55) — two more cities with their own peso and ruble economies: new job tiers, rivals, robbing targets, black-market gear, properties, collection sets, and city bosses. Some Moscow jobs need supplies smuggled from New York — the economies interlock
• Daily Take with streak multipliers up to ×7, and 37 achievements across a tuned 70-level curve
• Sound effects (toggleable), optional ambient jazz, confetti on level-ups and vaults, screen-shake on boss kills, animated cash counters, haptic feedback on mobile
• Mobile-friendly — sticky mini-HUD on scroll, 44px touch targets, safe-area insets

Viral bits

• Pick a nickname; earn a title as you level
• Brag buttons on level-ups, boss kills, and vaults — native share sheet or clipboard
• Challenge links — every brag URL carries your stats; friends who click it get a "Vendetta" tracked in their profile until they out-earn you (with a "Rub It In" brag when they do)
• Generate a downloadable Wanted Poster of your character with your stats and bounty
• OpenGraph card (og-image.png) so shared links unfurl with a picture
• Save codes — export/import progress between browsers and devices

Progress is saved to localStorage in your browser.

Running on JSS (pod sync + leaderboard)

The game is 100% client-side, but it can optionally be mounted as a JavaScript Solid Server plugin — your pod becomes your mob identity:

• cross-device save sync (PUT/GET /omerta/api/save, keyed on your WebID)
• a city leaderboard — the one feature a serverless game can't have
• the same single index.html: on GitHub Pages the pod features stay dormant

node jss-plugin/serve.js        # composed JSS + OMERTÀ on :3230
node jss-plugin/test.js         # integration tests against a real instance

See jss-plugin/omerta-jss.js (both the plain-Fastify and activate(api) loader contracts, same shape as the Tideholm adapter) and jss-plugin/NOTES.md for the findings log.
