Hi, I'm JockOfCode

I'm a Ruby developer. In my spare time I've been playing with Spinel, an ahead-of-time Ruby-to-C compiler — mostly game demos and tooling built around it.

Spinel SDL games

A running collection of small, self-contained games and sandboxes built with sdl, a set of SDL3 bindings for Spinel — each one written to exercise a different corner of the bindings (physics, text rendering, mouse/wheel input, throughput, sockets):

tower_defense — "Bastion Line", grid-based tower defense
click_chess — full legal chess, mouse-driven
terminal_of_the_old_gods — glyph-only roguelike
vector_blaster_2000 — Asteroids-style outline shooter
net_pong — Pong over raw UDP sockets
...and more

Libraries

sdl — SDL bindings for Spinel
sdl_ui — immediate-mode UI on top of sdl, imgui-inspired
ncurses — ncurses bindings for Spinel
app_bundler — packages a compiled Spinel binary into a real macOS .app
asdf-spinel — asdf plugin for installing Spinel

Elsewhere

occ — a C compiler, written in Ruby
gaias_dream — a SimEarth-inspired planetary sim, built with DragonRuby
