AI Analysis
●MidCozyNiche Gem
21 terminal games across Unix, DOS, and Plan9 — mostly ports with some originals.
Strengths
- •Plan9 support shows genuine commitment to obscure platform compatibility.
- •Python 3 ports rescue abandoned games like Bub n Bros from obsolescence.
- •Lightweight dependencies mean games run anywhere with minimal setup.
Weaknesses
- •Fundamentally a curated collection rather than novel game design.
- •Terminal games already well-served by bsdgames, nethack, and similar.
