Its refreshing to see a README.md that isn't AI slop, even if it is quick and dirty scratch notes that don't quite give you as much information as you'd like.

TIL that PopCap’s engine was called SexyAppFramework and it’s open source.

And everything inside it is prefixed with “Sexy”. SexyString, SEXY_ALLOC_MAP, SexyTrace...

It’s certainly of an era, haha.

Popcap was originally named Sexy Action Cool. The name was probably from that era or a callback at the very least.

TIL that as well, it certainly makes the name make more sense!

There used to be a free web version: https://plantsvszombies.fandom.com/wiki/Plants_vs._Zombies_(...

Here is the proper version of the wiki that the community uses (rather than the Fandom version).
