After a few days of working on it, it seems like he’s been able to cut about 25k lines of code from the original ~95k, taking it down to about 70k lines. Pretty nice!

Throwing away never-called functions, chopping out hacks for now-outdated platforms, de-duplicating subsystems, switching to easier-to-reason-about data structures, making assets and related code use more standard formats, etc. must be pretty satisfying, like peeling old faded cracking paint off a wall and refinishing it.

I wonder where he’ll end up.
