LATEST

Site launch: landing page, About/FAQ/News, contact form

Signal Loss now has an actual front door instead of dropping straight into a login screen — this page, the project write-up, an FAQ, and a contact form for feedback and bug reports.

SEASON 2

Cases 11–20: The Restoration Directive

Ten new write-enabled cases following directly from Season 1's conspiracy reveal — real UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE statements, used to repair corrupted records instead of just investigating them. New "verify correction" mechanic replaces the accusation box on these cases; RESET DATABASE keeps working exactly as before if a fix goes wrong.

ACCOUNTS

Nicknames, leaderboard, and query history

Accounts now have a public nickname (email stays private). Added an overall and per-case leaderboard, plus the ability to compare your query history with another player — but only once you've both independently solved the case.

ACCOUNTS

Real accounts, saved progress, password reset

Moved from a single-file prototype to a full account system — registration, login, saved case progress, welcome emails, and a full forgot-password flow.

SECURITY

Answers moved fully server-side

Rebuilt the architecture so case data, hints, and answer keys never reach the browser — previously a determined player could read them straight out of the page source. Every query now executes server-side against a private per-player database.

SEASON 1

Cases 6–10: the conspiracy unravels

Five more cases extending the original arc, building to the season's reveal.

SEASON 1

Cases 1–5: Signal Loss launches

The original five-case arc — Kepler-7's Airlock B incident, the Meridian's mystery cargo, a stolen identity, deleted comms, and a fuel diversion that ties them all together. Built with a real embedded SQLite engine from day one, plus a hint system and field manual for players newer to SQL.
