was firefallthegame.com
Aliens destroy the world, and survivors band together to fight back using power armour.
A fantastic game, the likes of which I have never seen.
Unfortunately, it was abandoned.
Respark is attempting to be Firefall’s spiritual successor.

abandoned original: https://github.com/tylerhall/simple-url-shortener
forked: https://github.com/cargilcm/simple-url-shortener
Make your own URL shortener. e.g. for the owner of example.com links can be shortened like so:
example.com/some-long-url
to
example.com/abcd2
Impressively simple and easy to use. I chose it because it has one single very small script.

An oldschool music player.
Has potential, but is missing critical features and its development appears to have ceased. Only good for playing ASMA (Atar) .mus, .str, and .wds files.
