This cool site was inspired by neocities. Major early web vibes.

The layout and font gives off a more early 2000s vibe than a 90s vibe for sure, or, more accurately, "early 2000s with 90s leftovers." The average Neocities page uses more serif fonts, basic table layouts. Also computers in the 90s weren't going to be able to handle that rain effect, smooth scrolling marquees.

It absolutely is a blend of modern and early web.

Too modern for what? Does not seem like an attempt at netstalgic vibes.

Blown away by the interactivity of this site. So fun.
