Recovered Archive Build v0.13
"Some files may be corrupted. Some files may be missing. Some files may be lying."
NemOS is a browser based operating system experience created for Hack Club's Stardance program.
At first glance, it appears to be a simple retro desktop environment featuring draggable windows, file explorer, notes, and a boot sequence.
However, hidden beneath the desktop is a fragmented archive documenting the life of an individual known only as Nemo and a mysterious project called NULL.
As more files are recovered, the truth behind the archive slowly reveals itself.
