Take Your Time (IDE Arcade)

Overview

VS Code extension that turns idle build and AI-agent wait time into arcade breaks, launching sandboxed game tabs right inside the IDE without interrupting your work.

The Challenge

AI agents, builds, and CI runs create a lot of small dead-air moments: long enough to be annoying, short enough that switching apps feels wasteful. Take Your Time turns that idle time into a quick arcade break, launched right inside a sandboxed VS Code webview tab, without ever blocking or interfering with the task actually running in the background.
