Why does this exist?
It started as a joke in a Discord call.
Someone — we think it was Tristan — said something about how the most satisfying part of their day was dragging tickets across the board. Not finishing the work. Not shipping anything. Just... moving the card. That little dopamine hit when a ticket slides from "In Progress" to "Review."
And then Saolyn said, "Someone should make a game out of that."
So we did.
Kanban Chaos is a delivery manager simulator. You move tickets. That's it. That's the game. Except the board fights back — tickets spawn faster than you can sort them, the CEO puts a shopping list in the backlog, bees enter the sprint, and the intern reorganizes everything while you're not looking.
It's every standup you've sat through, every sprint that went sideways, and every Jira board that made you question your career choices — turned into something you can actually laugh at.
We built it because the corporate world is absurd and someone needed to say it out loud. Also because dragging tickets is genuinely satisfying and we wanted to see how long that feeling lasts when everything is on fire.
