What it does
A minesweeper dungeon crawl. The hidden tiles are cute little monsters, and every number is the summed fangs of its neighbours. Deduce where they lurk, descend floor by floor, and never guess — every board is certified solvable by logic alone. A clue is the summed fangs of the monsters around it — and grimlings come in ranks 1 to 3. A "3" might be one sleepy Maw or three little Nibs. Richer deduction that collapses back to classic minesweeper when everything's a 1. Dig up a grimling and it bites — you lose hearts, not the run. And because every board is no-guess certified, a perfect line of logic never bleeds a single heart. One shared seed per day, a bounded five-floor gauntlet everyone…from grimlings.co

I made a live multiplayer Minesweeper game2025 · minesweeperpro.com · ▲242Hi everyone! For several months now I've been stuck on the idea of a Minesweeper game that isn't just single player. This is what I came up with: • Live games allowing several people to play at the same time • Scoring system rewarding correct moves • Grid size, mines count, and players count set to make games as balanced as possible

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
