2048

The actual production 2048 package, collapsed into one local HTML artifact without changing its board, input, animation, or storage code.

DOM geometry becomes motion

Each tile is a semantic DOM node, but its movement is expressed as a translated grid position. The game manager owns the state; the actuator turns that state into classes, score changes, and animation.

This is the real Arcade document and runtime, not a visual imitation. Package files are embedded inside the frame so the production remains local and deploys as one HTML file.

What it demonstrates

Provenance note: Installed from ~/sanzcloud/projects/arcade/site/games/2048/index.html. Inlined the package CSS, Clear Sans fonts, and nine JavaScript files; removed Arcade lobby, telemetry, and vendor hooks. Gameplay code and markup are otherwise source-faithful.
