Beyond code

Playing since the Spectrum ZX 48k in 1985. A Top 10 plus a full history across 19 genres, from arcade to VR. WoW since launch day 2004. Occasional long-form technical reviews where the engineering is interesting enough to write about.

Side-projects that wouldn't otherwise get built. For curiosity, not output.
