During Christmas 2025, I found myself burnt out from work. The last few years had been hard, and multiple redundancies saw the company I loved reduce down to just a handful of remaining staff. As a coping mechanism, I kinda disassociated for a while - throwing myself into my personal projects. AI was destroying the passion I had for coding. I tried to find some meaning in development again.After months of throwing myself into creating this game, I slowly fell back in love with coding. I taught myself a bunch of technologies that I was previously unfamiliar - Astro, Flask, Redis, Celery, Just.
Anyway, this is Replicant Space. It's free. I love building and playing it. There's a cool story. Aliens are awesome. Feel free to poke the API and take over the galaxy.
