I swear I was better at this game 30 years ago than I am now.
I'm typing this on an S7 that refuses to die. Not looking forward to buying a new phone.

Re:Show HN: I made a pretty relaxing puzzle game on Wednesday November 23, 2022 @09:43AM (#33719695)

I believe Stephen King said something along the lines of "Good ideas stick around." I've come to treat it as gospel. Any idea that nags at me over days/weeks/months tends to be worth pursuing.
I was too young to perceive the game like this, but I sure remember how many hours I spent playing it. One of my favourite, maybe I will give it another run someday.

Long term outlooks work provided you scale the resolution, contrast etc... proportionally. This is how I identify the forest from the trees.

Show HN: A free web app to create, explore and generate color palettes

https://solitarysoftware.itch.io/ultracolor

Hi, HN.I was struggling to get a color palette right for a small game I was making in Unity and decided I'd throw together something that gave me a few dials to play with. Naturally, when the proof of concept worked I began expanding it and then some every time I wanted more independent control.It was initially born of frustration of not being able to do certain basic things in Photoshop, like...
