    Less lines of code than vanilla C while abusing query planning as a state machine is peak engineering malpractice. I love it.

    > The game logic is just ~5900 lines of SQL. While this sounds a lot, it’s definitely less than the original C source code which does the same in about 9000 lines!

    Nice
