Kirby's Adventure for the NES, one of my favorite games, ignores your controller inputs sometimes. I dove into the ROM, figured out the problem and fixed it: https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/7595/ I'm currently hacking the SNES mouse into Sim City.
I also built a CarPC back before we had smartphones that could do everything. I wrote some custom Perl software for it:
- An audible user interface that allowed a remote control, a keypad, or voice commands to speak-navigate a series of menus, to allow running programs, selecting music to play, etc. It was extremely low-latency, fast and clear, to allow very rapid navigation. No need to look away from the road, unlike every annoying car navigation menu I've ever used.
- A music interface to allow selecting playlists, shuffling music, pausing/skipping, etc
- A program to play the next of a pre-written instruction when approaching a GPS coordinate; basically, ghetto turn-by-turn GPS nav
- A wardriving interface to tell you when a new access point was captured and if it was unencrypted and high signal
- A video player hooked up to a mini monitor installed in the dash
I have a rail line right under my apartment, so I built a small computer vision app running on a Rasperry Pi which records each train passing, and tries to stitch an image of it. It has a frontend at https://trains.jo-m.ch/ . Edit: it's currently raining and the rain drops are disturbing the images a bit.

I'm slightly embarrassed that in terms of building personally relevant things, my proudest (digital) work is always shell scripts I use daily. Most of my personal projects are non-technical meat-space things like building with wood and the like. Here's some that I've open-sourced: - A git interface using fzf that works pretty nicely and is very composable. https://github.com/bigH/git-fuzzy - An interactive evaluator,…
I am also grateful to hear about “interactively”, I always had to write some kind of half baked implementation, it’s great to finally have a defacto solution.

It's got hidden developer mode, where even more interesting stuff available

Incidentally I also built some tech for it: https://github.com/dllu/nectar but I need to update the readme...
If yes, then I started building a hand tracking based VR workout app back in 2019 using GodotEngine to get myself a bit of extra motivation to exercise at home.
In the meantime it's become an official app but I am still using it for myself very intensively ( unfortunately no longer using Godot )
