Jason Godson / Wildcat Projects

Ideas in
progress.

Build it. Test it. See what happens.

I’m Jason. I make software, tinker with hardware, and occasionally wonder if an idea could become a business. This is where I keep track of what I’m building and how it turns out.

The projects

What’s on the bench

A spending app, a pool heater, a calorie tracker, a web arcade, and a pipeline for making game assets on my own hardware. There’s a bit of a range.

Local Asset Forge

Can I make game-ready 3D models, sound effects, and music on my own hardware? A local pipeline from idea to something playable in Unity.

Pool Heater

Trying to get more warm-water days out of the pool. Pumps, plumbing, temperature sensors, and Home Assistant are involved.

SoftwareMaintenance

SpendSeer

A budgeting app that grew out of my Google Sheets workflow. Less statement cleanup, one place to see my spending, and a chance to learn what it takes to run a paid SaaS.

Calorify

A simple, local-first iOS nutrition app that started as a replacement for my calorie tracker and is becoming a better way to see the data I already have.

Web Arcade

A small arcade at play.jasongodson.com where friends and family can play the games I build, hosted on my own homelab.

The builds.
With the camera on.

No videos here yet. I’m planning to share the projects as I go: what I tried, what went wrong, and what I’d change next time.
