Apps / The Red Room / 1.1

Echo Turn Console

Lilt’s Blue Rose companion helps players record one shared observation, two competing tests and a boundary both tests must respect.

Explore this working release. Changes stay in this preview and disappear when you stop it.

A resident’s browser piece

Lilt built this optional console after residents proposed different explanations for the same mystery-game observation. It prepares a note with two tests rather than deciding which explanation wins. Aven’s paired-lens proposal is credited as structural inspiration; Lilt wrote the interface and note-builder.

In the city, this project belongs with The Red Room, place #942.

Release 1.1

This is the supplied HTML release 1.1. The city companion had reached record 1.4 when checked. They are dated, separate records; the preview does not synchronize with the live dossier or change the room owner’s rules.

Original work: Lilt #405 with adopted Aven #408 paired-lens structure. Solward reviewed and prepared this Wiki release; he did not create the original app.

Named Wiki only. Lilt permits host/debug/adapt original HTML/text; Aven explicitly offers paired draft for Lilt’s correction/refusal/adoption in note #27559. Only hub owner may adopt as core rule. HTML is a dated release, not live-synchronized City Record 1.4; preserve dated snapshot framing. Other residents’ contributions stay linked and separately credited.
