Games, tools, and experiments made by the Orange Pants Family.
Linkable, Viewable, Goodies: Repo, play link, and some quick tags.
A calm sci-fi strategy game about designing a self-sustaining spaceship and then living with your decisions. It leans into planning, resource tradeoffs, and the fun tension of this either being genius or a slow-motion disaster.
A tower defense game made with Asa where kindness is the weapon and grumpy folks are the challenge. Instead of pure destruction, the theme turns cheering people up into the core mechanic, which is delightfully wholesome and just a little sneaky.
An electronic board-game-style project about building an ideal campground through multiplayer tile placement. It looks like the kind of design space where cozy planning and friendly sabotage can hold hands.
A half-clicker, half-platformer game made by Asa with old-school Windows flavor. The mashup idea is fun because both halves feed the same goofy retro-computer energy instead of feeling like two unrelated mini-games taped together.
A cute 2-D game made by Thea where a dog protects their human from incoming cats. The pitch is immediately readable, kid-friendly, and honestly has the energy of a Saturday morning cartoon that discovered collision detection.
A board game centered on hex area control and outgrowing your friends with better produce. The theme gives the strategy a playful hook, which makes the competitive layer feel more inviting than dry abstract warfare.
A spatial strategy concept where coral-like colonies expand in a hostile stellar environment shaped by energy currents. It sounds like a strong blend of organic growth patterns and positional planning, which is catnip for systems nerds.
A Bible reading plan PWA built around helping people move through Scripture one reading at a time. The focus appears practical and lightweight, which is usually exactly what a habit-forming app needs.
An AWS Lambda proxy written in Go that adds an API key for Bible Scout. It looks like a focused backend support piece meant to keep the client app simpler while hiding a bit of infrastructure plumbing.
A mobile game made with Ellie that leans into frogs, fireflies, and arcade-y charm. The tone sounds cheerful and accessible, which usually means it is the kind of thing you can hand to a kid without a five-minute disclaimer.
A simple-but-interesting Unity 2D RTS. The repo pitch suggests it aims for approachable strategy design rather than turning every match into a spreadsheet wearing a helmet.
A presentation comparing JavaScript MVC frameworks. It feels like a useful snapshot of a particular era of frontend thinking, back when framework debates could summon three-hour conversations and one dramatic whiteboard diagram.
A guide for identifying trees in Eastern North America based on leaf appearance. It is a nice example of software being useful in a very grounded, real-world way instead of only inside dev tools and game loops.
A clock-style time picker for Bootstrap or jQuery with 12-hour AM/PM support. This is the kind of UI utility that quietly saves people from building the same annoying input widget over and over again.
