Do you remember the game Stunt Car Racer from 1989? It was available on Amiga, Commodore 64, and other computers at the time. It was awesome!! If you don't remember, then consider watching a longplay video of the game.
Now, somebody got hold of the original Amiga source code, converted it to C++, created a DirectX game, and put it on SourceForge (remember SourceForge?). This was an enormous achievement! However, I don't want to boot up a Windows machine (or a VM) to play the game. I want it on my mobile phone, on my iPad, on my son's Chromebook, in my own browser.
So I've been working on replacing the DirectX calls in the code with OpenGL calls, so that I can compile the whole thing with emscripten so that I get some HTML, some JavaScript, and some WebAssembly. Also, lately I've been putting GitHub Copilot to work, implementing a tournament system like in the original game, game menus, and refactoring a lot.
It's pretty far from being done! But you can play it here!

But... enjoy!
