Bob's been philosophizing about the Contra x Rive Interactive Character Challenge while he waits for the results. Philosophy isn't really his strong suit.
On a more serious note, this challenge has been great. Seeing so many good entries is genuinely motivating, makes you want to experiment, create, and just have fun with it. Don't tell Bob, but I'm already happy with how this turned out.

🎮 Retro Repair Café — bringing old consoles back to life, without the admin chaos.
For the Lovable × Contra challenge, I built a concept website and working booking system for an independent retro console repair café.
Customers can book a console assessment, describe the fault, arrange collection and delivery, and track their repair. If they’re staying, they can reserve a seat and pre-order food or a milkshake. Community gaming nights and a retro marketplace give people a reason to return after the repair.
Behind the counter, a database-backed workshop dashboard brings together repair jobs, quotes, appointments, collections and food orders. I populated it with eight fictional repair jobs so you can explore how it works.
Why I built it
When you run a small repair business, you’re the technician, receptionist and organiser. Every phone call asking for an update interrupts a repair. Paper notes and scattered bookings make it harder to keep customers informed.
I wanted to give that owner more time to fix consoles, while making the customer experience as enjoyable as rediscovering a favourite childhood game.
The café adds something personal: a broken console becomes a reason to meet people, play games and support a local business.
Built with Lovable, with custom visuals and an AI-assisted promo video showing the idea in action.
