About
I'm Marcel, 19.601199y/o. I write code with a background in reverse engineering and game cheat development. If something can be taken apart I've probably done just that.
Work
Created skowt.cc at 15 - a game asset platform that peaked at 700k MAU, still serving 100k. Alongside I've been working on Originoid since 2023, a creator protection platform with 40k+ on the waitlist pre-launch.
