A legitimate salvage.
I hack on microcontrollers, games, and 3D-printing projects as well.

I did it! I made a video game. Introducing Star Captain 32767, a retro-arcade shooter with rogue-lite elements, inspired by games like Galaga and 10000000. The game is free, but if you enjoy it I would really appreciate a small donation!

Surprise! I just released FTL - Lost Ship EP, a small collection of never before published FTL music, including live tracks, music that was cut from the game, and an expanded piece I made in 2025 based on one of the originals.

What's with all the "just support the workers, there's no need to mention you don't drink starbucks" scolding? Guess what? I support the workers AND I also don't drink starbucks because it's garbage coffee. If you feel the need to scold me, how about just smashing that unfollow button instead lmao
