I'm building a manually curated catalog of videogames made by HN users. The UI is done and I'm in the phase of adding data to catch up to today's games. Check it out: https://hn-games.marcolabarile.me/ (includes games up to October 2024 atm).

Trying out games posted to HN so i can add them to https://hn-games.marcolabarile.me/

I'm doing some quick programming and studying today from my laptop before lunch. I'd be interested too to know if anyone here has found a good and cost-efficient setup to vibe code from devices with small screens (eg. smartphones, tablets).

In weekdays, laying on the couch after eating a healthy and tasteful dinner after an intensive strength training session at the gym. Weekends usually allow more freedom and I have more cognitive energy available too, so besides "usual" weekend activities I work on some side projects while discovering cool ambient music or study some interesting topics (usually CS).

Thanks! That's not supported atm, but I will think about it. What's a genre combination you'd like to filter for?

Cool project!

I'm building something quite similar at https://hn-games.marcolabarile.me/

I manually curate the data and add images too. Code and data are open: https://github.com/labarilem/hn-games

I've posted this project some time ago to HN but it didn't get much attention unfortunately.

NOTE: Data includes games up to April 2024, I add more games when I have some spare time and plan to catch up to today's games asap.

I'm building a manually curated catalog of videogames made by the HN community. Currently I've added data up to the end of March 2024. The plan is to gather all data up to today and then keep updating the collection. Check it out here:

Happy New year to all! I've set my goals for this year and can't wait to see how it goes.
Sorry I didn't catch your comment earlier! I can add it to the catalog if you submit it to HN. Check this page: https://hackernews.games/submit

Side project for fun, without profit. I'm building a manually curated catalog of videogames made by the HN community: https://hackernews.games/

Also I plan to build other fun mini-projects and write a couple of blog posts currently sleeping in my backlog.

Re:Ask HN: Why Do You Blog? on Friday December 26, 2025 @06:36PM (#46397548)
I like to share my ideas/projects with the world. Also, it helps me learn to express ideas and concepts. Bonus: sometimes you meet cool people interested in the niche you're exploring!

I'm building a manually curated catalog of videogames made by the HN community. Currently I've added data up to the end of 2023. Now I'm working on adding more data and evaluating a free newsletter to notify users when new games are added to the catalog. Currently at about 400 visits/month.

I'm building a manually curated catalog of videogames made by the HN community. Currently I've added data up to the end of 2022. The plan is to gather all data up to today and then keep updating the collection. I'm finding it a bit hard to add the 2023 games since there are lots of them(I guess thanks to the various LLMs).

Ask HN: How do you do CI/CD in 2025?

What tools and platforms are you using? How do you manage deploying to different environments? How do you implement artifacts versioning? Also having some context would be interesting, e.g. company and team size.

Re:Show HN: Collatz Lottery on Tuesday August 19, 2025 @12:15PM (#44953249)
Yes that might be the cause. Maybe I need to increase the upper limit on iterations? I haven't tested it a lot with the bigger numbers since I've entirely coded this from my smartphone and it's quite slow at processing those numbers.

Thanks! Will look into it.

I'm building a manually curated catalog of games made by the HN community.I'v found several small gems while browsing HN, and it would've been quite difficult to find those games otherwise. So I've started a personal quest to collect those games into a public catalog with open source code and open data (everything is available on GitHub: https://github.com/labarilem/hn-games).Currently the...

Maybe cline? It's a vscode extension actually, but it lets you choose the LLM.

I'm also using VSCode at the moment. Any extensions you'd recommend?
