A modern Commodore-descended BASIC system with a live compile policy, broad host access, graphics, devices, objects, namespaces, and a serious runtime underneath. Try the browser beta now, then move to native builds as they arrive.
Carnivore preserves the old machine feel where that still matters: direct mode, device-driven I/O, PETSCII-aware text, graphics modes, and familiar BASIC structure.
Under the surface it is not frozen in 1985. Carnivore adds namespaces, objects, host adapters, compile policies, broader devices, and a runtime that can target more than one host.
This is an active system, not an archival novelty. The browser beta is the easiest way to see it evolve while desktop and other ports are prepared.
No install required. Open the beta page and run Carnivore in your browser as the first public web host.
The native Windows build will be offered here once the package is ready. Until then, the web beta is the public test surface.
The manuals are being tightened so the public site can host the authoritative Carnivore reference and guides.
Hardware, software, and more. HeadSoft has been building systems since the personal computer era first took shape. The focus now is Carnivore BASIC and the ecosystem around it.
