Threshold

THRESHOLD — Public Prototype v0.1

A novel pathogen called the Sever has collapsed civilisation.

You are infected. Survivors are arriving at your shelter.

Your goal is to stay alive long enough to synthesise a cure.

Threshold is a biological survival game built around real clinical 

systems — SOFA scoring, viral load, organ failure cascades. Every 

decision costs time. Time costs health.

--- WHAT THIS BUILD IS ---

This is a public systems test prototype. The core loop is complete 

and playable from start to finish. Balance, audio, and visual polish 

are still in progress.

You can:

  - Manage five biological vitals in real time

  - Build rooms in your shelter

  - Send survivors on expeditions for supplies

  - Research and synthesise a prototype cure

  - Die from multi-organ failure if you get it wrong
