Slop Kart - Official Trailer, rendered from the game's own code

Slop Kart is our free browser kart racer, and this is its trailer: 55 seconds, cut like an anime opening. How it was made None of the racing footage is a screen recording. Because we own the game's source, the trailer runs the real game in a director mode: Scripted races. Each shot is a small scenario: who is on track, where they start, what they do.

Road to State Machines IV - But How Do We Let Data Influence Transitions Without Turning Every Value into Another State?

Our lifecycle now has one explicit transition table. For a valid order, it tells us: The operations consult that table before making a change. The code that lists available actions consults it too. But Part III ended with another requirement: Consider two orders. Both are paid, and both retain their captured payment records: Order Status Payment record Delivery address A PAID Present Supported B PAID Present Unsupported Both records satisfy our existing invariants.
