futmanager-wasm

Hypothesis (draft)

Can a manager game of the 90s school run entirely in the browser if the engine is Rust compiled to WebAssembly, instead of shipping a desktop binary per platform?

Stack & constraints

• Rust → WebAssembly via wasm-bindgen (src/lib.rs).
• UI: plain HTML/CSS/JS in www/, styled as a Windows 98 pastiche, in pt-BR.
• Clean-room: no code, data, names or files from other games — every club and player is fictional and generated procedurally.

What shipped

• 4 divisions, 16 fictional clubs each.
• Squads of 18 players plus a free-agent market.
• Players carry position (GK/DEF/MID/ATT), ability and attributes (finishing, passing, marking, goalkeeping).

Retrospective (draft)

• The clean-room constraint shaped the whole data model — everything had to be generated, so the generator became a first-class part of the game rather than a seed script.
