built my portfolio as a fake OS instead of a website
boot screen with a fake BIOS log (calibrating sarcasm... 96%), draggable/resizable windows, taskbar, start menu — the works
terminal—actual commands, try sudo hire-me
music player—16 tracks, real Spotify previews, spinning vinyl art
games section—5 "games" that don't exist, click one and get a random fake error instead. segmentation fault: null pointer, the most dramatic way to say i'm not running 😭
tic-tac-toe—actually playable

A few days ago, I didn't know Rive.
Today, I built an interactive Tour de France broadcast concept from scratch.
I learned Rive during the challenge, designed the interface in Figma, illustrated the entire race scene, animated every component, and somehow turned an idea that felt impossible into a working prototype.
Still learning. Still making mistakes. Still having fun.
That's probably my favorite part of being a designer.
Is any of the tools you used paid or pro version?
Day 4 update!
It has been a massive coding marathon today getting ready for submissions, but I just finished four brand-new quick-play games. We have Pulse Maze where you navigate a hidden maze using sonar, Reaction Tapper for pure speed, a 3D endless runner called Sky Stacker, and Shift the Apples, a digital take on a classic real-world logic puzzle.
I am really enjoying bringing these to life. Let me know which one you want to test first and drop your best Reaction Tapper times below!
