Cody, after hours

Serious software.Unserious racing.

I have hosted DrunkioKart every year since 2023. What began as a tournament for friends has grown into an annual tradition—and in 2026, its fourth running became a full livestream production.

Why it exists

A tradition that became a production.

What started in 2023 as a fun tournament became the kind of project I naturally love: part event, part production, and part product problem. I shape the format, build the tools, and host a night people look forward to all year.

It is also a good picture of how I work. I notice the awkward parts, make a system for them, and keep improving it until the technology disappears into the experience.

New for 2026

I turned tournament night into a live production.

This year I added streaming for the first time, combining Python, OBS, tournament logistics, and hosting into one live system with a very real deadline.

01

Python-powered data

I used Python to organize the tournament information and turn live event data into something the broadcast could use.

02

OBS broadcast system

I lined up the scenes, overlays, and show flow in OBS so viewers could follow the action without losing the energy in the room.

03

One-person production

Hosting, software, and streaming had to work as one system. The project was a practical exercise in planning, testing, and adapting live.

Pick a year

The new production and the years that built it.

Go behind the scenes of the streamed 2026 tournament or step back through the champions and results from 2023 through 2025.

More than a résumé

The things I make for fun still say a lot about how I build.
