Projects

The repo atlas, trimmed down to the projects that still have a point and the families that actually belong together.

This section is the public workbench for the GameCult GitHub org. Some repos are live systems. Some are research bursts that still smell faintly of ozone. Some are support machinery for the support machinery. The point is not to pretend every public repository deserves the same amount of ceremony. The point is to make the shape of the work legible without building a second museum for our own breadcrumbs.

GameCult

A fresh Rust crate for forcing sprawling graph worlds to hold still long enough to be understood.

epiphany-graph-rs

2 min read

epiphany-graph-rs is a graph-layout research repo in Rust. Its job is not just drawing nodes somewhere plausible. It is trying to combine force-directed behavior, Sugiyama-ish structural constraints, clustering, and quality metrics into layouts that make large relational systems feel legible instead of like someone dropped spaghetti on a star chart.

Brand-new research repo

Founding Idea

The founding idea is that graph layout should respect more than pure repulsion and hope. If the system has structure, folds, clusters, tiers, or narrative importance, the layout should be able to express that instead of flattening everything into democratic confusion.

Trajectory

The repo’s whole public life currently fits inside one feverish day. It starts as a hybrid graph-layout crate and immediately grows 3D layout, structural analysis, fold groups, a realtime solver, Barnes-Hut repulsion, tuning sweeps, force-body taxonomy, and layout quality metrics. That is not a slow “maybe one day” repo. That is a research thread being externalized while the ink is still wet.

Ambition

The ambition is to support the broader Epiphany/agent-world work with layouts that are computationally tractable, structurally meaningful, and visually interpretable. In plain English: make large social or semantic systems easier to read before the humans in the room start lying to themselves about having understood them.
