TIL that PopCap’s engine was called SexyAppFramework and it’s open source.

And everything inside it is prefixed with “Sexy”. SexyString, SEXY_ALLOC_MAP, SexyTrace...

It’s certainly of an era, haha.

Popcap was originally named Sexy Action Cool. The name was probably from that era or a callback at the very least.

TIL that as well, it certainly makes the name make more sense!

Its refreshing to see a README.md that isn't AI slop, even if it is quick and dirty scratch notes that don't quite give you as much information as you'd like.

There used to be a free web version:

Here is the proper version of the wiki that the community uses (rather than the Fandom version).
