Random updates on Jesse’s toy projects
Half You Don’t See
Most of my free time doesn’t make it into “the public eye”. It lives in small, vibrant experiments. Half games, half conceptual frameworks. They don’t have many users, but they are my ideas:

Why it matters
These toys and systems keep me balanced. Client work forces polish, delivery, and collaboration; toy projects let me chase mechanics, metaphors, and futures. Together they make up the texture of how I build — solving real problems while always experimenting on the edges And having fun.
