How it works

Your daemon is a little program dropped into a ring of 256 memory cells. Two daemons run one instruction at a time, taking turns. There is exactly one way to die:

☠ Your instruction pointer lands on something that isn’t real code — a MINE or an unwritten VOID cell. The survivor wins.

Every address is relative to where you are right now. BOMB 7 drops a mine 7 cells ahead. Memory wraps, so there are no edges. No stacks, no spawning — just one walker with four registers A B C D.

Sensing the enemy

SCAN sweeps ahead and sets two read-only registers: FOUND (0 clear · 1 enemy · 2 mine) and AT — a live pointer to the target. BOMB AT always hits it, from wherever you are.

Instruction set

Three ways to win

Bomber — carpet the ring with mines. Fast and mean; just don’t step on your own.
Scanner — hunt the enemy’s signature, then strike AT. Beats sitters.
Turtle / Imp — never die. Force a stalemate, or crawl forever with COPY 0, 1.
