A pure HTML, CSS, Javascript version of Repton, created direct from a disassembly using Claude and Kimi K3. Might have been done before, I don't know. https://github.com/bielesibub/repton
You can play direct here - https://html-preview.github.io/?url=https://github.com/bielesibub/repton/main/repton.html
I also gave Kimi K3 a shot at resurrecting a version I wrote on an old 386 in the 90's - the source code is lost. it got it kind of up and running - https://html-preview.github.io/?url=https://github.com/bielesibub/repton/main/my_repton/html5/repton.html
