Kachipun Tournament
Invite a friend, meet a stranger through matchmaking, or climb the arcade ladder one fighter at a time.
A single Go binary serves the embedded interface, judges every throw by arrival time and streams updates over SSE.

Two Idiots, One Ship
One player pilots, the other fires; both share the ship, lives and score.
A Go server runs the authoritative simulation at a fixed timestep and streams snapshots to a canvas client with touch controls.

Komikan
One puma against twelve dogs. Players join a room by link.
The Go rules engine decides every move, and both pages update live.

Approach
Simplest architecture that fits
I choose the simplest architecture the product can sustain: server-rendered HTML and progressive enhancement where they fit, Angular or React where the interface needs them.
Tools chosen per problem
I've shipped in JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP and C#, and use Go for small services where a single binary and a small dependency surface help.
AI-assisted, verified
I use AI agents for scoped, reviewable changes: clear task boundaries, persistent context, tests and code review. The agent drafts; the checks decide.
