I use Zig for all my hobby projects:

- A pixel art editor https://github.com/fabioarnold/MiniPixel

- A Mega Man clone https://github.com/fabioarnold/zeroman

- Zig Gorillas https://github.com/fabioarnold/zig-gorillas

And most recently I had the opportunity to build a visualization for TigerBeetle's database simulator: https://sim.tigerbeetle.com

Before I was using C++ and Zig has been an improvement in every way.

That mega man clone is great. The movement feels exactly how I remember mega man 3 feeling. You absolutely nailed it. I also appreciate how you've set up the code, with the build script being written in zig. I checked the code out, compiled it, ran the web server and bam! It just worked. It doesn't seem like that should be a big deal, but competence is such an exotic bird in these woods that I appreciate it whenever I see it.
How did you not name that zigorrilas?
