GRIND404: I turned my "Passion" for LeetCode into a playable arcade game
Short summary
GRIND404 is a satirical arcade game that scrapes real LeetCode problems and subverts them into parody using Google Gemini. Players earn points by submitting maximally degenerate answers while a rigged judge rejects everything with passive-aggressive verdicts. The game uses FastAPI with an offline fallback engine so it never depends solely on the AI API, and ships as a single Docker image.
