Yes and still under active development [1]! We also just finished the 2024 November NetHack Tournament (TNNT) [2]! I played in the tournament for the first time this year. I had one near-win with a very challenging Monk (I was doing a bunch of conducts [3]) who unfortunately died to the infamous Wizard of Yendor (Rodney as we call him). I also had a winning run with a Wizard which unfortunately finished a few hours after the deadline at the end of the tournament, so sadly that one didn't count!
Next year I hope to have a bit more time to play so that I can record a win in regulation time!

kohi
A game engine made as part of the Kohi Game Engine series on YouTube (and Twitch!), where we make a game engine from the ground up using C and Vulkan.
This "logging system" I adapted to this engine was influenced a whole ton by the kohi engine. If you don't know, the Kohi Engine is quite a robust game engine built in C. The guy who created it also logs his progress on his YouTube channel. Check it out. The series is very fun to watch and very informative.
