The archive is
alive.
Six games, rebuilt from their original source and assets for modern screens. No emulators. No installs. Just press play.
Land of Chai 2
The bigger follow-up: 70+ levels, 180+ cats to rescue, boss battles, minigames, and a full level editor rebuilt for the web.
PlayChai Sprint
Guide a tiny pixel cat through a relentlessly accelerating field of spikes. Variable jumps, rare mythical sections, and the original rainbow chaos make every run its own story.

Chai Sprint 2.0
The sequel opens the run up: rescue six follower cats, survive streamed terrain, break into mythical sequences, and spend your limited revives wisely as the pace climbs.
PlayChainary
Turn eight bits into the number you need before the next spike arrives. Solve it and the threat becomes your weapon across 120 levels, three difficulties, and a string of bosses.

About the work
Made by Thomas Patierno.
This is one developer's living catalog of games, utilities, and internet-sized experiments.
The remake collection began with a simple idea: old software shouldn't disappear just because its original device moved on. Each web edition is rebuilt from the real Objective-C source and original assets, preserving the feel while making the games easy to play again.
Alongside the archive, Thomas continues to build focused tools and curious products—small pieces of software with a clear point of view.
