Sick!! Well this makes perfect sense looking at the big bucks fortnite makes every month on cosmetics
I've never seen a character system quite like it, especially running on the web. Love that you can actually grab the resulting 3D asset from it in addition to the render provided.

So what's next for it? Integrations into games?

More examples makes sense! I'll add that after adding some more visual styles / more customization options. I haven't thought about forks yet, but sounds like it would be useful. I remember using coggle.it which is quite convenient and supports forks

Cheers! What kind of features would you like to see added?
There’s been a lot of presentation decks made over the years while working in a startup and most required a simple and easy to understand roadmap.

That ignited my side project idea for Waymark - a tool to allow anyone to create a pretty and informative roadmap visualization in minutes.

You can add events & descriptions, mark them as milestones, export as PNG without any watermarks.

Hi HN! I found myself often reaching for notes, snippets, searching through cluttered bookmarks or doing repetetive system-tasks while using MacOS. So, I decided to build Superbar, a tiny menubar app that can store common snippets such as a Google Maps URL to your office, open bookmarks to your default browser so you can keep browsers clear of bookmark bars, run system commands in the background such as launching apps, workspaces, switch system themes and so on. Also, for developers I've included a "run-in-terminal" mode which will open any pre-defined command and run it in a new terminal window. Hope it's useful!
