Three things I wish I did with The Costumemaster
For the Fall 2020 semester, I developed a game for macOS called The Costumemaster. Suffice to say, it didn’t work as intended, and I didn’t get anywhere exciting with it. However, I did play with machine learning in the final weeks of the semester.

Open-sourcing my Jekyll theme
