I released a new 8kB demo this weekend at the Revision demoparty; it ranked 2nd out of 10!
Really happy with the public reception. Hope you enjoy it too! The code is open-source:

I've just wrote a new blog post: "A History of IDEs at Google".

I worked at Google for 12 years on developer tools, including 3 years on the internal IDE. I'm sharing here some notes about it.

I have published a new 8kB intro (for PC, Windows) this weekend. The feedback has been very good so far. You'll find the download link, YouTube link and source code here: https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=98212
Enjoy the night ride! Fully procedural content, all the graphics are done in a single shader.

What would it look like if you were to design a video game, whose target audience are language learners? As I view it, it's the opposite of gamification in learning apps, it's about making an actual game and making sure it's accessible to a wider, multilingual audience.
I'm sharing my thoughts in a blog post, with a plan of actually doing it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this!
