One line. Six hours 💀

Bug fixed → Goblin dead( but also Groknak 😭)

Archive Tetris - document chaos on a grid

Do I polish this and throw it on itch.io or do I have the discipline to return to my actual game? 😂

POV: You set up strict linter rules to force yourself to write clean code

Also you: *ignores 469 errors*

This is fine. 🔥

Just dropped my first dev.to post 🎮

Built a deterministic fixed-point math lib for TypeScript. LUT-based trig is 3x faster than Math.sin while staying bitwise-identical across platforms.

Perfect for lockstep netcode & replay systems.
