Dekhte Hai
Stop sending texts. Send playable digital experiences.
What it does
The "Happy Birthday 🎂" text is boring. Dekhte Hai is a playable, interactive micro-experience engine living entirely in the browser. No app downloads. Just a simple link. Instead of a lazy text, send a digital cake where they literally blow into their phone's mic to extinguish the flames, or send a 2D Slime Soccer match. I'm a self-taught solo dev who built this to kill the boring e-card. Test the physics and tear my UI apart!

Also it's a one button game, well movement and one button. Cool huh? The final release will be free too. -What I need- This is a very challenging game, so I really need to balance the difficulty so that it's still hard but not impossible. It would be great just to hear your experiences of the game and how far in it you got. -Where can I report bugs?-…

I saw The Mahjong Guide (https://themahjong.guide/) today and loved how much a good visual explanation can do for an old game. Around the same time, this HN thread about using coding assistants to revive projects you never were going to finish (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47902525) pushed me to actually do something with the idea. That combination sent me down a nostalgia rabbit hole. Thaayam / Dayaakattai is one of those games I played during childhood summers in Tamil Nadu with cousins, and this being summer again just brought those memories…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
