How to Play

Easy to learn, challenging to master. Here's everything you need to know!

1

Setup

Each player has 5 pegs — 4 in holding, 1 on the home hole. Your mission: race all 4 pegs into your safe zone, then land the final 5th peg on the home/winner hole to win!

2

Draw & Play

On your turn, draw one card. Use it to move a peg. Royal cards (A, J, Q, K, Joker) and 6 grant an extra turn!

3

Enter the Track

Pegs start in holding. Use an Ace, 6, or Joker to bring a peg onto your home hole and start racing!

4

Cut Opponents

Land on an opponent's peg to "cut" them! Their peg goes back to holding. Strategic cutting is key to victory!

5

Fast Track Shortcut

Take the inner ring for a shortcut! The Fast Track is dangerous but can give you a massive advantage.

6

Win!

Get all 4 pegs into your safe zone, then land the 5th peg exactly on the home/winner hole. First player to finish all 5 pegs wins! Use Royal cards (J, Q, K) to exit the bullseye.

ButterflyFX

Powered by ButterflyFX

FastTrack runs on ButterflyFX Dimensional Programming — a computing paradigm where dimensions ARE the computation. Seven Genesis layers, each carrying all lower dimensions within it, governed by the golden ratio (φ = 1.618) and the Fibonacci sequence.

Every point in the system exists in one of three states: Potential (unaddressed possibility), Null (addressed but valueless — pure location), or Manifest (addressed and valued). From these states, dimensions unfold — not stacked, but carried. Each dimension IS an entire lower dimension.

2 · Mirror — Reflection
3 · Relation — Connection
4 · Form — Structure
5 · Life — Animation
6 · Mind — Coherence

"The Shape of Me"

Plucked from pure math. Every note you hear is generated live by equations.

Music & Sound Effects Born from Manifolds

There are no audio files in FastTrack — no MP3s, no WAVs, no samples of any kind. Every note, chord, drum hit, melody, and sound effect is created in real time from mathematical expressions called manifolds. A manifold is just a smooth mathematical surface — think of a bedsheet stretched in the air. Every point on that surface has a height. The Music Substrate reads points along these surfaces, and those heights become the pitch, volume, timing, and tone of every sound you hear.

Here's the simple version: math makes a shape, and the shape makes the music. When you hear a bass note rumble, that's a point on the surface z = x · y. When a cymbal sizzles or a victory fanfare plays, those are coordinates on z = x · y². The game doesn't play sounds — it calculates them, live, from the same manifold surfaces that control the board, the pegs, the cards, and the AI.

🎹

Notes Are Frequencies

Every musical note is a vibration. Middle A vibrates 440 times per second. To get any other note, we use the formula: f = 440 × 2(n − 69) / 12 where n is the note number. This one equation creates every note on the piano — from the deepest bass to the highest chime.

🌀

The Golden Ratio Shapes the Sound

The golden ratio φ ≈ 1.618 appears throughout the game. Board proportions, hole sizes, peg dimensions — all cascade from φ. The music follows the same spiral: Fibonacci numbers 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21… weight how loud each layer plays and when chord changes happen. Nature uses this ratio in sunflower seeds, galaxies, and DNA. We use it to make music that feels right.

📐

Manifolds — The Shape Behind Everything

A manifold is a smooth surface described by an equation. Imagine a rolling landscape of hills and valleys — except instead of dirt, it's made of math. FastTrack uses two manifold surfaces: z = x · y (the "relation" surface — a saddle shape) and z = x · y² (the "form" surface — a curved bowl). Every game element lives on these surfaces. A hole's position determines its rules. A card's coordinates determine its power. The music reads heights off the surface to decide pitch and rhythm. Sound effects pick coordinates to determine their tone and intensity. Even the AI walks along gradients (slopes) on these curves to make decisions. One set of equations runs the entire game — board, music, SFX, and AI.

🎼

Step Sequencer — Like a Music Box

Imagine a paper roll with holes punched in it, like an old music box. The Music Substrate does the same thing digitally: a grid of 16 slots per bar where each slot can trigger a bass note, a melody note, a drum hit, or a sound effect — all synthesized live from manifold coordinates. The patterns are defined as number arrays. Each game theme has its own song: Neon Circuit (Cosmic), Stellar Drift (Space Ace), Gladiator March (Colosseum), and Coral Groove (Undersea) — all built from the same manifold engine, just different surface coordinates and tempos.

The Substrate Architecture

FastTrack is built as a constellation of independent substrates — each one a self-contained system that manages a single domain:

🎵 Music Substrate
🔊 Audio Substrate
📐 Board Manifold
🃏 Card Deck Substrate
🎯 Peg Substrate
📜 Rules Substrate
🏟️ Crowd Substrate
🎙️ Commentary Substrate
👤 Avatar Substrate
🤝 Social Substrate
🏢 Lobby Substrate
🎨 Themes Engine
🧠 Manifold AI
🔐 Auth Substrate

Each substrate is a sealed mathematical surface. They don't call each other — they publish coordinates and other substrates read the surface. No spaghetti. No callbacks. Just geometry.

FastTrack — The Game

Public Domain Board Game

FastTrack is a traditional card-and-peg racing game in the public domain. Many companies and craftspeople produce their own boards — the game rules belong to no one. This is an original digital implementation with 3D graphics, AI, multiplayer, and procedural music.
