Look Puzzle
Hey everyone, built another tiny thing. This time for a wider audience BUT i think it might appeal more to those with kids. The idea was this: no matter how much effort you put in to reduce screen time for kids or yourselves, it inevitably happens which leads to eye strain. So I built a Look puzzle game that is designed for people to have to look around their actual surroundings in order to finish the puzzle. You take a picture of your surroundings, that picture becomes a puzzle and then you complete it while looking at what you just clicked. There is no reference photo on your screen to…

I’ve been working on a puzzle game for a few years as a side project. The game is based on a small region of tiles in a grid that is mirrored, modified, and mirrored again. It’s based on a novel phenomenon I noticed where, once these mutations happen a few times, the original region can be hard to recognize. You have a feeling there are symmetries in the image, but they are just out of grasp. Going further, if only part of the region is visible, such as mirroring off the edge of the board, it adds to the feeling and it becomes a satisfying puzzle to solve. I originally published this on the…

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents.
