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!

probably https://getartcraft.com/ It's really shaping up, from the activity I see in Github.

There's a lot of activity, but not a lot of it is from people who know what they're doing. Photocraft is less usable now than it was on release, which is impressive. One of the latest releases (I believe 0.11) had a bug where choosing a color on the color palette would hard lock Windows and require a physical restart.
