🐞 Ai's Odyssey | Featuring my custom programming language, 🍵 Chai
Ai's Odyssey is a turn-based dungeon crawler teaching programming hands-on.
You take on the role of an AI created by a lazy game developer, stomping out computer bugs in their upcoming game by programming in real-time during combat!
This game features a custom-made, interpreted object-oriented programming language called "Chai", written from the ground-up in Godot's scripting language GDScript. Chai is coupled with a simple but strong IDE with error surfacing, tooltips, and smart autocomplete!
Chai seemlessly bridges the gap of UI and the in-game world, showing the effects of your code as it executes in real time; in-game objects and their properties are also exposed to the player as variables they can access and manipulate.
Chai continues to grow and mature with each update, including a recent addition of arrays and strong static typing.

Battles, Hunts & More is a Discord bot that supercharges the process of storytelling and role-play within a Discord server.
🖼️ View the full README with visuals included.
Comeplete with character creation, BHM+ allows players to fully document their character's (or characters') backstory, history, and any stats that define their combat readiness, hunting abilities, and general stature and survivability. This leans into their proficiency in hunting, hunger, and fully-fledged and customizable Turn-Based Combat System mechanics available to all players in BHM+!
💬 Players also have the ability to speak as their character in-chat, switching between multiple on a whim!
Server administrators have full control over the universe that they design, from name, history, and visuals, down to the alliance groups that exist that players can become a part of (and those are customizable too)!
Alongside universe customizability, administrators can create NPCs to further interact with players in their world! NPCs also utilize the speaking mechanics, and will automatically appear for Administrators when speaking in character.
Players may also hunt, carry, and deposit food into storage containers, or eat it themselves straight from their inventory! (Items will be arriving in v6.0, and the storage system is fully prepared for its implementation).
Server administrators may set up their storage containers to suit the story's needs, including setting the alliances who own the container, alliances that may take or deposit, and if the container may be "secretly" stolen from.
The battle system for BHM+ is fully turn-based and customizable to the server administrators' hearts' intent! Up to five teams may be present, and players may add any character they wish to battle!
The host of the battle is also able to add any of the NPCs created in the server, along with scaling them up with preset "levels", which scale up all their stats by 1 per level to have a more dynamic battle, and removing the need to create unique NPCs for each and every level possible.
Apocalypse Couriers is a top-down package-delivery game with a linear storyline, much like Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding in which you deliver essential packages across a barren, twisted landscape for the entirety of the game; the twist, however, is that you battle medieval enemies that block your path from one merchant to another in randomly generated “dungeon” maps in the middle of the apocalypse, enemies twisted and distorted as hellish versions of themselves become apparent within the game. It’s like hell just merged with earth and humans are the final creatures left alive without any significant altercations.
The procedural generation is be simple and works in similar fashion to The Binding of Isaac’s map generation: one entry point, with randomized rooms surrounding the player, enemy-filled rooms all throughout, and a final room with the merchant's stand within.
Quests are linear, 3 in total equating to 3 total, uniquely-designed floors as you run from one merchant to another, merchants filling you in on the world as you progress, but the dynamic portion and replay-ability that transforms this from a linear RPG like Final Fantasy into a dungeon-crawler like Crypt of the NecroDancer, clearing floor-by-floor of enemies to progress to the next level, is the random floor generation and enemy population each time you travel from one merchant to another.
Most dungeon-crawlers have hack-and-slash mechanics, while Apocalypse Couriers takes the player on a turn-based combat journey through the medieval wasteland, facing off against typical medieval enemies but mangled through the horrors of the waking apocalypse. The player faces-off against these creatures turn-by-turn, going first and choosing their attack. The player has 4 methods of attack, consisting of two light attacks and two heavy attacks, each with their own stats and selectable by their corresponding arrow key.
The player grows stronger based on any power-ups in the forms of “ancient artifacts” that they pick up; health, accuracy, and damage bonuses, reflecting in the respective indicators by the attack itself. These artifacts are either permanent, lasting until the end of the run, or temporary, persisting only within the current floor.
See what awaits in hell-on-earth in this new turn-based, horrifying package-delivery game of doom!
