the idea

Judging my game library every morning became a ritual. GODPAD turns it into a show anyone can watch, and argue with.

Releases faster than you play.

the engine

A library under the show.

01 · the library

Frankenstein

My private game library, built in spare time. It catalogues every release from the Atari 2600 to the PS5, keeps what I judge worth it, and runs almost any of those games on the TV, from the sofa.

02 · the loop

Judged, shown, prayed

New releases land in a queue. Rules clear the obvious, I judge the rest, the day becomes a show, prayers come back to my desk.

03 · the rules

Most of Hell is automatic

An ordered pipeline judges first, dry-run before it applies. I only see what it won’t decide.

04 · the morning

One OK a day

I judge at seven, the PC renders the day, I approve it once. Then it goes out on its own, with its own music.

play the judge

Ten canons, out loud.

heaven or hell

Judge a soul

The canons are public so people can argue with them. Send each kind of game somewhere, then see which canon rules.

ux decisions

Small calls, a fair judge.

  1. Three fates, three marks

    A halo, snapped chains and a crown of flames: you read a verdict before the name.

  2. Saved means prayed

    A game I take back myself is blessed. Only prayers make it “saved by you”.

  3. Scarce prayers

    Five a day: each one weighs, and each day gives a reason to come back.

  4. The least about you

    Google sign-in keeps a first name, never the email. Delete your account in one step.

the episodes

Watch the judgement.

One episode, every morning

Drawn by the canvas scene at the top of this page, captured frame by frame into video, posted on Instagram and TikTok.

What goes out, and when

Once the day is approved, every item has its minute. This is the default grid, from the reel at 10 to the damned at 13:30.

frankenstein

The app under the show.

the desktop app

Plays almost anything

Frankenstein runs on the living-room PC and drives the TV. From an Atari 2600 cartridge to a PS5 disc, a game it catalogues is one click from playing.

brand & system

Night tape.

An eye in a pyramid over a joypad: the all-seeing judge of every game. Its line boils like a hand-drawn cartoon and holy rays turn behind it, as in the reels.

aftermath

A judge that never sleeps.

Live since October 2026: one episode every morning, on Instagram and TikTok.

A ritual makes a format.

The show is the morning I already had, made watchable.

Rules make it fair.

Public canons turn a taste into a game people can argue with.

One OK, then hands off.

The day goes out on its own, so the show survives a busy week.
