IMHO as a human (not as dev or engineer), I think that bots (autonomous systems in general) should not impersonate or be treated like humans. This robot created this controversy and has caused us to waste time instead of optimizing it.
Re:Show HN: A small browser game (PC only) built with Phaser 3 on Thursday September 04, 2025 @10:55PM (#45134574)
Hi mdaniel! Thanks a lot for your feedback. The last thing I added were the audio assets (music, shooting, reloading), and the game ended up quite heavy — so yes, it definitely needs an initial loading bar. On another note, I wrote "WASD" + "R" assuming I’d be sharing the game with people who usually play, so sorry about that. The idea behind the different weapons is: pistol → accurate but a bit slow and with short range, rifle → accurate and long-range, machine gun → low accuracy and medium range. Were you able to see that there are several types of zombies? Thanks again for your comments. José.-

Show HN: A small browser game (PC only) built with Phaser 3

https://cubic-zombies.pages.dev/

Hi HN! This is my first game — something I’ve always wanted to do.It’s a small browser game built with Phaser 3, React, and the phaser template (https://github.com/phaserjs/template-react-ts/).I made it in 2 days (like 8 hours in total real time) using gemini-cli. About 90% of the code was generated with AI, but I learned a lot by making fine tweaks.It only works on PC since it’s a typical WASD...

I remember there was a site that showed all the characteristics that could make you unique. In my case, what gave me away was the unique id of the canvas.

my word was "temperature" and my "voltage" attempt gave a distance of 46, so I was biased and finally gave up. I will try again another day

I was like 10 years old when my dad "stole" from his job an abandoned olivetti m19. Gorillas was there, but didn't work due to a graphic card issue. So I edited the code, deleting all the block related with the error (was a big 'if') and the game worked. I felt very smart that day

In this context, I remember youtube+pakistan issue[1]. I also wonder how an AS/BGP manager do his/her job... I imagine a guy/girl changing a text file in a old console. Anyone knows?

nah, just let him/her play
in my case, for "When the lockdown is over, I will"

Result

When the lockdown is over, I will drive into the suburbs. I have not seen my family for over two months. It is the first time we have been together for more than a month. The opportunity is more than a welcome change from the isolation of quarantine.

In the first days of lockdown, many of us were taken aback when we realised that the familiar streets we walk every day and that we have seen from a distance for the last two months, now cannot be reached. It is odd, looking out of the windows of my apartment that used to be the starting point of my morning walks, to see the back of a view I take on a daily basis.

I am no longer the first in line as I used to be at the market, waiting for my turn to pay for what I want and exchange pleasantries with my colleagues. Now, I am the last in line, standing in an almost deserted supermarket for a few seconds before I realise I am no longer needed.

At some point, we will be able to open our doors again. But for the time being, the call to social distancing is still the most effective way to curb the spread of coronavirus. Now, the calls for people to be more open are more of a necessity than a choice.

I am working on a very early idea: applying virtual reality in software engineering. My first try is this. I represent in VR the data that can be retrieved from TravisCI.org using its API v3. Your feedback will be very valuable to me. Thank you very much colleague
