Projects & lineage

A from-scratch i686 kernel written in C, C++23 and assembly: GDT/IDT, paging with a determinism-first physical memory manager, SMP bring-up over APIC/IOAPIC, PCI enumeration, PS/2 input with switchable layouts, and — the point of the whole exercise — LplPlugin compiled natively into kernel space.

The dual-build (client|server) engine: graphics, physics, and an ECS with a Structure-of- Arrays memory model. It started as the "best-architecture-possible" successor to Engine-3D and Flakkari, and grew into a complete engine that supersedes both — now embeddable directly into the kernel for a zero-copy data path.

A local mind, and the inversion the rest of the industry is not making: the model does not draw the world, it directs one. A few hundred tokens of intent become a call the engine can perform — and cannot misperform, because the grammar the model decodes under is regenerated from the engine's own component declaration at every step. Everything after that decision is deterministic C++, which is why a world it built folds bit-for-bit the same in ring 0 as on the host.

The library the rest of the project is built out of: every algorithm traced back to the paper or report that argued for it, and forward to the file that implements it. It exists because a codebase this size forgets why it does things, and because a mind that can cite its sources is worth more than one that merely sounds sure.

The first graphics engine. Pure C with CSFML only for pixel output — all the 3D maths and rasterization were hand-written, alongside a minimalist physics core. It was a playground for every feature that looked interesting at the time, and the place where the appetite for doing the low-level work yourself began.

A game server with an integrated ECS and minimalist physics, able to host several game instances at once over its own protocol. Systems and components were varied enough that a JSON scene file declared which systems to enable, which entities to pre-register with which components, and supported entity templating — the direct ancestor of LplPlugin's server build.
