Everything runs on a static data cache — game data loads once at startup, zero redundant DB hits. Cron jobs handle energy regen, timer expirations, drug market shifts, and bank interest automatically.
Currently on v0.14 and actively shipping updates. Early days — small community, fresh economy, ground floor.
If you grew up on Torn, Crime City, or the OG Mafia Wars — this is that, rebuilt with modern tech.
