langterm VS andrewzah.com-docker

I purposely wrote my home page (https://langworth.com) with plain, vanilla JavaScript, which features both WebGL and plaintext clients for a server-side text adventure game, because I wanted to remind myself that it's not that difficult to build something interactive and fun without miles of modern front-end tooling.

It started as a single page but I eventually broke it out into a few files for organization. The WebGL parts are lengthy and boilerplate-y because, well, that's GL for you. https://github.com/statico/langterm

It’s a retro experience with a text adventure game. I wrote it to prove to myself that I kinda knew WebGL after shutting down our browser gaming startup.

Only one person has beaten the game. Most don’t make it inside the building. Guess I’m not a great game designer ;)

Here’s my personal site: https://andrewzah.com/

It’s statically compiled with Hugo. I switched from Zola due to lack of asscidoctor support. My focus is on minimalism and loading fast.

The sad thing is I’ve spent dozens more hours working on the code for this site than actually writing articles. (Counting the various migrations from Zola, etc).

I have some drafts for articles but I just have zero motivation to write these days. I’d rather practice guitar.
