Kiss Tony

Kiss Tony is our amateur OCE Counter-Strike 2 team: a group of mates entering a league for fun and joke-posting on social media. The site takes that deliberately unserious brand further with browser games, persistent competition, tie-ins to what the team is doing and a merch shop for designs we cooked up together. Underneath the joke is far more engineering than the premise could ever justify.

• Designed and built the complete product independently, including the interface, games, backend services, commerce integrations and production setup.
• Turned our shared jokes and team branding into interactive games, competition and a deeper home for the things we make together.
• Built the merchandise journey around designs the team created together, from product discovery and checkout through fulfilment updates and transactional communication.
• Continued to improve production behavior as game replays, leaderboard traffic and merchandise functionality expanded.

• Several branded browser games, including reaction-time testing and a first-person aim trainer with flick and tracking scenarios.
• Clerk authentication and Convex-backed leaderboards, recent attempts, display names and synchronization of locally earned personal bests.
• Compressed replay capture with embedded three-dimensional playback for leaderboard and recent-score attempts.
• A Printful-backed catalogue with product and jersey pages, variants, image galleries, size guidance and a persistent cart.
• Stripe checkout, verified webhooks, Printful fulfilment, order-status handling and transactional email through Resend and React Email.
• Responsive and touch-friendly interactions, haptic feedback, route metadata, sitemap coverage and cached product delivery.

• Next.js and React application combining ordinary product pages with React Three Fiber game loops and replay rendering.
• Convex data design separates replay payloads from frequently queried score metadata so leaderboard reads do not load full recordings.
• Game state spans anonymous local play and authenticated persistence without discarding a player's existing personal bests.
• Failure-aware Stripe webhook handling keeps payment and Printful fulfilment behavior recoverable when downstream order creation fails.
• Printful catalogue data is normalized into a custom storefront while Zustand maintains a resilient client-side cart.

• Shipped and still operate a live home for the team, our jokes, community games and merchandise.
• Created game experiences that visitors can use without an account while giving returning players persistent scores and replayable attempts.
• Connected the public storefront to payment, fulfilment and customer communication rather than stopping at a catalogue prototype.
