DIALUP.STUDIO — "a design studio still loading since 1999"
A single-page website for a fictional branding/design studio, styled as a playful retro-computing interface (think late-90s/early-2000s desktop OS, chunky drop-shadow "windows," a boot-up loading screen, and a CRT scanline overlay). Built entirely in one HTML file with embedded CSS and vanilla JS — no frameworks.
Key sections/features:
Boot screen — animated fake OS loading bar before the site reveals itself
Desktop-style hero — draggable "windows," desktop icons, floating retro decor (spinning globe/CD, sparkles), and a chunky progress-bar chip
Hidden Pac-Man mini-game — a fully playable canvas-based Pac-Man clone (ghost AI, power pellets, scoring, sound effects) triggered from a desktop icon
About/story window — studio bio and a scrolling timeline (2019–2026 milestones)
Pricing ("Pick a plan.exe"), portfolio ("Recent files — 112 and counting"), process steps, testimonials, and an FAQ.HLP accordion
Contact "window" with a form
Custom animated pixel-art cursor (arrow + pointer states) and chunky retro scrollbar styling
Color system built around a violet/chrome palette with pink, yellow, blue, and green accents; typography mixes a bold display font (Unbounded) with monospace (JetBrains Mono) for that OS/terminal feel
It's essentially a fun, interactive parody of an old desktop computer reimagined as a modern agency landing page — heavy on personality, animation, and Easter eggs (like the playable game) rather than a plain corporate template.
