Products that do what FilmLink – The Wiki Game for Movies (Daily Puzzle and Multiplayer Beta) does
I built FilmLink (https://filmlink.io) because I wanted a movie version of the Wiki Game. To win, you connect films by linking actors to their roles: Movie -> Actor -> Movie -> Actor. Today is the official launch! It's completely free to play and features: Daily Puzzle: A new challenge every day with a global leaderboard. Multiplayer (Beta): Race against friends in real-time to see who can finish fastest, or who can do it in the fewest clicks. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the gameplay. I'm actively collecting feedback on the multiplayer experience and keeping an eye out for…

Link: http://xoxo.cm The idea here was to build a multiplayer game with the lowest possible barrier to entry to get started. That is, no registration, no game setup, as few steps as possible to actually start playing. There's not much substance here right now and there's still a few bugs that need to be hammered out. I'm also thinking of expanding on the idea with some other simple games down the road. Any feedback or suggestions on the concept in general would be much appreciated.

Hey HN, My partner and I made a daily puzzle game called "bridj.link" (the dot is not silent). Thought I'd give Hello World in SolidJS a shot but ended up taking things a bit too far (to the point where we're now on our 99th puzzle!) Each puzzle has thousands of valid solutions. The tutorial goes into a bit more detail, but basically, each puzzle consists of a top word and a bottom word. These words need to be linked together using real words, made up of the tiles provided. In addition to an emoji summary of your solution, you'll get a fancy link that you can share with others upon…

We've been working on a custom engineered collaborative filtering algorithm not only to recommend movies for one person but for several to watch together, at the same time. We're still in closed beta but would love to get feedback before launching.

Most Friday nights and weekends, my wife and I would spend 30+ minutes scrolling Netflix, vetoing each other's movie suggestions. The intersection of our tastes is pretty small. She's into rom coms and the occasional thriller, and couldn't care less about ratings. I gravitate toward critically acclaimed stuff and 3h+ sagas. Eventually, we would settle on something neither of us really wanted, or a comfort TV show. So, I built movieagent.io to help us. It's an agent that finds what you're in the mood for tonight. The agent plays the role of an arbiter, and does its best to try and bridge the…

Update: Really appreciating all the feedback I'm receiving and will start right away at implementing all of it. I haven't put a link on the site to follow on twitter yet, but to get updated about new features follow Movie Cron on twitter @MovieCron ( http://www.twitter.com/MovieCron ).

My dad and I had a little idea to build a movie site, where the movies are tagged by what feelings they evoke instead of just genres. This was influenced by how playlists are tagged on 8tracks, and how game levels are tagged in LittleBigPlanet. We threw something functional together, and would like to get some feedback on the idea/site. It allows anyone to tag movies with a variety of adjectives, and for a user to search by them. This sort of tagging would allow us to find movies that are alike, a user to track which types of movies he/she likes, and offer a recommendation system…

This weekend a well-known comedian was live-tweeting sardonic commentary for a new Lifetime movie. It got me thinking that it would be cool to be able to replay his tweets later so that someone who missed the live show would be able to sync them up with the movie. That, along with the fact that I've had lots of fun on Twitter during big events (like the elections), made me think that it'd be a fun hack to put together a Twitter playback site. So last night and tonight I threw together http://www.twitterplayback.com. Check it out an let me know what you think!

It's like a mix between Picross (Nonograms) and Polyominoes. It's a minimalist puzzler which has no text, no tutorials (none required) and no ads set in a relaxing environment. App Store: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/shapeuku-shape-puzzle-game/i... Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dtbgames.s... I have a bulk load of Android promo codes to give away, so if you'd like one let me know! (Sorry iOS users, I have no free codes left!)
