## Description

Welcome to Upload Labs — a node-based computer manager where your goal is to save the universe from heat death by designing highly optimized operating systems. Use window-like nodes to represent components and processes, connect outputs to inputs to control resource flow and data pipelines, and tune systems for peak efficiency. The game blends strategic simulation, systems engineering, and emergent gameplay as you prototype, iterate, and scale your designs.

Advance via four core pillars: Research to unlock breakthrough nodes and technologies through a branching tech tree; Hack to infiltrate organizations for intel and resources; Code to recruit contributors, craft custom apps, drivers, and optimizations; and AI Development to feed files, train emergent models, and push toward Artificial General Intelligence. Upload Labs emphasizes creative problem solving, automation, and long-term progression as you architect solutions to stave off universal collapse.
