Heisenberg's Empire

A free Breaking Bad strategy game — play as Walter White

What it does

I built a browser-based grand strategy game where you play as Walter White.

A friend and I got hooked and spent the last week and half building out a playable online version of the game. It supports pass n'play, multiplayer, and a primitive bot (named kurt) that you can play against. We're also chess nerds so had to ship with an Elo system. Huge kudos to nicolodavis[1] and the maintainers of Boardgame.io [2] - it's the only reason we could build something this good, this fast. The library separates concerns and authority across the server / client seamlessly without…

    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.
