Highrise – one-tap tower stacker, every height is a real building

A tower stacking game. Tap as the crane swings each floor over the one below. Miss and the slab slides off, and the wind gets stronger the higher you go.

What it does

Tap to drop a floor and stack a tower as high as you can. Every height you pass is a real building, from Stonehenge at 7 m to the Burj Khalifa at 828 m. Two ways to lose: the slab slides off, or the tower leans past what it can stand. The wind gets stronger the higher you climb. Free, no signup, plays in the browser.

  • Hey 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…
