Free game · built and run by Studio NPV
Scope Creep
Your first version is due in 90 days. Catch what it needs, dodge everything else, and ship before the feature requests bury it.
- Free
- About a minute a round
- No sign-up
Eight things make a first version. Everything else is scope creep.
Catch all 8 core features before the clock runs out. Every extra you catch costs 6 days and makes v1 heavier.
The point
A first version is mostly the things you leave out
Every request in the game is reasonable on its own, and that's the trap. The products that launch are the ones that say “later” to almost everything until real users ask for it. In real life it's the same eight things, give or take, and a lot of polite no's.

Next step
Want a first version that actually ships?
I design and build first versions of new products for founders, scoped to what the first users need, for a fixed price agreed before work starts.
