HeartLink
Love yourself. Love each other. Raise something magical.

Love notes, self-care, shared adventures and a magical Heartling. A little sweet, a little spicy, and yes, a little hanky panky.
WELCOME TO MY DIGITAL WORKSHOP
Applications, Design & Engineering
I build tools for work, love, life, and the occasional magical creature.
HALLOWEEN FAMILY EXPANSION PACK
It's that time of year again where awesome ideas become massive piles of filament poop.

PK · Rune-shield warrior. I rolled for sensible decisions. Critical miss.
PKade Labs: PK Applications, Design & Engineering. It is where I turn real problems, weird ideas, and entirely unreasonable amounts of curiosity into apps, games, tools, and tiny living worlds.
Some projects help you work. Some help you take care of yourself and the people you love. Some let you raise magical creatures with surprisingly strong opinions about snacks.
And one of them will eventually run DOOM, because apparently every screen must pass the ancient trial.
Built by PK. Powered by curiosity. Held together with code and suspiciously high confidence.
APPS, EXPERIMENTS & OTHER GOOD IDEAS
Some people make a normal portfolio. I built several tiny universes and gave each one its own save system.
Love yourself. Love each other. Raise something magical.

Love notes, self-care, shared adventures and a magical Heartling. A little sweet, a little spicy, and yes, a little hanky panky.
All the creature raising. None of the relationship homework.
Hatch a Heartling, discover favorite snacks, explore strange places, and carry its Legacy into the next beginning. No partner required. The creature will still develop opinions.
Know how much AI fuel you have left before your project drinks the entire tank.

I got sick of running out of debug juice while I was pew pewing and I needed a gauge to know when I was being too much of a giga chad and derizzling my rizzler by overizzing ohio's. Anyways, this little god tickler is straight fire, no cap, zero sus, all buss.
Because every screen must eventually face the ancient trial.
The emotional-support dragon will remain outside. Probably.
A future HeartLink game-platform experiment using legally supplied WAD files, touch controls, isolated saves, and a completely unnecessary amount of determination. This is a plan, not a playable port. No game files are provided.
WORK IN PROGRESS, PERSONALITY INCLUDED
This is where sensible planning and wildly unnecessary feature depth attempt to coexist.
Two people, real inboxes, one shared little world. The current test is for Tiff and I.
Bringing the world along on the Waveshare 1.75-G, with a 466 × 466 AMOLED screen.
A standalone Heartling adventure, with its own save and an entire life worth of snacks.
Android and Wear OS fuel gauges for my coding-assistant allowance.
PLAYER ONE, MOSTLY
Father of five. Builder of apps. Survivor of paperwork. Frequent over-engineer. Occasional space watermelon.
I make things because solving a problem is satisfying... and making the solution slightly ridiculous is usually more fun.

A YEARLY CELEBRATION
March 8 · Every year
Strength. Integrity. Resilience. Pride. Family. Honor. Valor. And PK!
Another year of showing up, standing tall, and loving my people. March 8 is my excuse to celebrate all of it.
Because software does not have to feel sterile. A useful tool can have personality. A self-care app can make you laugh. A couples app can raise a dragon. A status monitor can look like a fuel gauge.
And a tiny heart-shaped computer can apparently become an entire game platform if nobody stops me soon enough.
PKade is where practical ideas and deeply unnecessary lore meet in the middle. Usually something useful survives.
Explore the apps, meet the creatures, read the origin story, or just admire the fact that the watermelon made it into space.
