This is my first post here. I figured I should start somewhere, and a hackathon project is as good a reason as any.

The background

I have been writing business software for about three years. Dashboards, APIs, data pipelines. It pays the bills but it stopped being fun a while ago. When I saw the WebMCP Challenge hackathon, I decided to build something I would actually want to play when it was done.

This is also my first game. Never touched game loops, sprite rendering, or canvas animation before this week.
