The Lab
Machine Atlas: the International Space Station Real NASA geometry, explorable in 3D.
Why I made it I wanted to know whether NASA's own source models could become something anyone can pick apart in a browser. Drag it, explode it into assemblies, move it into eclipse, step inside Destiny. The same pipeline makes any facility or product explorable.
Explore the stationThings I made to see if I could. Games, worlds and machines, built with AI as the crew. Each one taught me something I now use on real client work.

Super Mario Bros. 3, World 1-1 A fan remake, running on a phone with touch controls on both sides.
Why I made it I wanted to see how far one prompt to Claude Opus 5.5 could get: the visuals, the physics, the accuracy of the gameplay, the feel of actually playing it, every mechanic. It pretty much did it in one shot, the whole first level with all the mechanics, in about 30 minutes. The next prompt built the next two levels in about 20. The last one just said "Finish the whole thing," and 30 to 40 minutes later World 1 was done. The playable remake stays private because the world belongs to Nintendo. The run is the part I can share.

Small Hours A pocket planet with eight places to wander.
Why I made it A test of how much life fits on one tiny world before it stops feeling handmade. Ski down Cloudpeak, ride the tram, swim across Mirror Lake. Press Cinematic for a ten-second flyover with a generated score.

AFTERLIGHT Six bottled worlds around the last star, and a time machine.
Why I made it I wanted a story you steer by rewinding. Watch the disaster unfold, go back, change what the city decides, then compare the future you saved with the one you left behind. It is the same question every strategy review asks.

SkiFree: Alpine The 1991 classic, rebuilt in 3D.
Why I made it SkiFree ate a lot of my afternoons. I rebuilt it to find out whether the yeti could still scare me. He can. Rainbow ramps, a slalom course and a Zen mode for when you just want the snow.

Second Brain My Obsidian vault as a brain you can fly through.
Why I made it I wanted to see what my notes look like when everything is connected. 2,228 notes and 5,526 links from my Obsidian vault, packed into the shape of a brain, each kind of note in its own lobe. The tour flies inside and lights each region in turn. The system that files the notes is free on my Tools page.
