Wow! What a coincidence. I just launched this y'day - https://cric26.fun/ I tried to go for deep cricket-ing gameplay and not graphics. People from the subcontinent should be able to enjoy it.

Awesome! I dont think I saw it in the arcade though. Do you want to submit it?

Please show the game list in random order, or starting in a random position. Just to promote the discovery of the games later in the alphabet. (Or end up with games called ______11_roguexxx, lol)

Fixed :) Like I mentioned elsewhere this was a project born out of my desire to try a new documentation framework (docusaurus)... however the sorting of the docs is not super convenient.

Ive added a randomisation to the list, so hopefully it makes it fairer. If this maintains some traction perhaps Ill beef up the site and make it much more fairer/customizable :)

Nice, except, first game I clicked is now only pay-to-play on major platforms. I'm not against that, but it doesn't feel like a Show HN game anymore which I kind of expect to be a little rough and ready and certainly free to play. Perhaps this could be noted in the listing? I mean it's a success for the developer, not a downside. Game was Holedown.

Doesn't the 'paid' tag under the game description already address this concern?

Thanks. It's very easy to miss, as I did.

Lovely!

Of course, I added mine as well, which got better feedback on “What are you working on” thread than I expected.

Since then I released two updates but Show HN thread didn’t catch on. I’m still actively working on it. Atm I’m tweaking level difficulty to make it easier to start and then ramp up the difficulty.

I have a todo list defined, and I’m having so much fun going through it.

Fantastic idea! I didn't see my https://words.zip game here so I'll submit it, even though it didn't get mucht traction on HN - it's up to 288,000 words found now!

BTW Amazing site! Zooming out, it reminds me of that reddit canvas thing they did a while back where everyone got their space to own.
