This has been an unexpected outcome of agentic coding for me.

I recently ‘rescued’ [0] one of my favourite video game series, No One Live Forever, which is kind of lost to IP hell. It’s been an enjoyable experience, I learnt a lot, and it’s feels great to have revitalised the game.

(Article is from 2003 but I'll comment on the sentiment)

A new era of ownership is here.

I ported a closed-source game I'm a huge fan of from mac to iOS so I could play it on the go. No plans to release it; just sweet to play how I want.

The limit is your imagination!

All my monthly software subscriptions have been going bye-byte. No more Bookmap, Adobe, or Quickbooks!
