I like the idea and I would play it, but the system of coming up with questions and then having to answer them in order to narrow down the options is unintuitive. Can I see a pictu…

Studies have shown again and again how detrimental "multitasking" is to our cognitive abilities, which is the author's point.

This explains the unusually large amount of traffic my game is getting today.

Thank you. I was overjoyed at the initial response and surprised and disheartened to see it get flagged. I emailed HN's moderators to get clarification and see if there's anything …

It's a global verse that everyone gets, which resets at midnight. That way people can compare their guesses to the same verse every day.

Great question. It picks a random book first (out of the 66 non-Deuterocanonical books (so far)) and then a random group of 3 back-to-back verses from that book. That way it's not …

Based on my initial audience, it's definitely not common. The Christians I know have different levels of familiarity with the books of the Bible. Personally, I know Genesis/Exodus,…

I tried [redacted] and [redacted] first as well.* Perhaps I should make it clearer that correctly identifying the book on the first try is not the expectation. Maybe I will add a c…

Thank you so much for noticing. I didn't even know there was a difference between Orthodox/Catholic and Protestant canons until a week after the site was live. I spent a decent amo…

Thank you! I've noticed that a lot of other well-loved "daily" puzzle games are more elegant in terms of game design (Wordle, Bandle, LoLdle are some of my favorites) so I'm a bit …

I created a daily game where you get a random Bible verse and try to identify the book (e.g. "Psalms", "Genesis", "Luke") in as few guesses as possible. I have absolutely no clue h…

I'm working on a text-based softball league simulator where you forcibly enlist your friends and family to join your co-ed softball team. You play as their manager/coach/fellow pla…

I am a real Discord customer who is actively looking for an alternative due to how terrible the performance is on my M1 MacBook and on my gaming PC. I'm just one person—I'm not cla…

Hey Matt! I've been a fan of Ambiphone for a while and I see your comments on HN surprisingly often. I've been trying to build a different web audio player with inspiration taken f…

I don't want to live in a world where we have to add footnotes when using em dashes

FWIW: Your original comment, in the first message you sent ChatGPT, was way better than the one you posted. Simple, authentic, to the point

I've seen Bauble before, although not sure where. Love your work

I'm working on a parody of the lofi hip-hop radio YouTube streams, but for Byzantine music (chanting) of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The end goal is a community-focused study/pray…

Great article! A minor correction, Steph Ango is Obsidian's CEO, not founder

That's a very compelling pitch. I don't have the budget yet but it's something I'll be keeping my eye on as yall launch and reviews start coming out!

Looks really cool, although way beyond my chess ability. Nice work

Extremely shallow take on what is undoubtedly the rise of America's next great space era

these tests are designed to fail — the data collected now will ensure they don't blow up with actual people on them. test seems like a success to me

not sure if this perfectly addresses your question, but "Designing Games" by Tynan Sylvester is a great resource
