About

Small Server, Long Memory

Floating Eye is a home for experiments, old web roots, and NetHack work that has accumulated over time. This page is the front door for the company, its public projects, and the code around them. Floating Eye NetHack refers specifically to the NetHack variant and public SSH server. A broader public directory is available in the FLEY directory.
