Farmbound – A Diurnal Game of Farming

Farmbound is a puzzle game about farming. Combine or fertilise seeds into crops and crops into fields; put scythes and tractors next to crops and fields for points. Think of it like a cross between a match-3 game and Little Alchemy. The twist is that you get the same sequence of items for the whole day: if you play again, you’ll get the same things in the same order, up until midnight UTC when it changes.

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Farmbound is a puzzle game about farming. Combine or fertilise seeds into crops and crops into fields; put scythes and tractors next to crops and fields for points. Think of it like a cross between a match-3 game and Little Alchemy. The twist is that you get the same sequence of items for the whole day: if you play again, you’ll get the same things in the same order, up until midnight UTC when it changes. There's also a description of why it's built the way it is: it's a web app. The full post is at [0], but here's the tl;dr: it is entrely possible, and ought to be more common, to give people an app without tithing to an app store and having someone else review it, and without having to build platform-specific native versions. And that means that your app works on phones, on desktops, everywhere. Why limit your audience? [0] https://www.kryogenix.org/days/2022/08/31/farmbound-or-how-i...

    I created a small 2D game about an antSep 2025 · aanthonymax.github.io · ▲89

    Hello everyone! I created a short game in just a few days, just for fun, where you play as an ant and feed it apples This game also features random landscape generation, with clouds and trees arranged in a chaotic pattern across all coordinates. This is what took me the longest time :) I would appreciate your feedback ^ ^

    Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results. For comments/suggestions/feedback please visit…
