Earlier quoted context omitted.

StarCraft

more like Homeworld / Outpost / Ascendancy / Invisible Inc / Mass effect 1 to me. But not direct ripoff any of them.

The visuals aren't don't evoke StarCraft to me, but the sounds 100% put me back in to playing StarCraft in high school.

perfect for creating DOD dashboards to impress upper brass. Add a sweeping crosshair reticle animation, tOp seCReT labels and a rotating bald eagle point cloud. (I wish this comment was satire...)

How is the PLTR IPO going?

This is great if you're building a web page as marketing for some sci-fi game or movie. Don't use this for a real application. Real as in used for making real money.

Oh yeah. Let's ensure internal tools scream INTERNAL TOOL

Glad to see this posted on Hacker News. I used this for our internal tool and the first time I showed it, almost the whole company were in awe. I made a kind of public version here if you're interested: https://scan-viewer.vercel.app/scans/1 Edit: Guess I should explain a bit more about this tool. Our main product is a handheld scanner that can take an individual’s body measurements while they are fully clothed. You…

I love the TODO. Awesome loading spinner too, and graph!

Now, the frequencies used by the buttons are grating on me with headset on. I wonder if there are free sounds we could use for those. Or, if they could be procedurally generated, so as not to be the same sound every time.

That's awesome. Of course not for standard web interface, I would hate my bank to have something like this, but that would be perfect to create a text adventure or other immersive experiences!

You just reminded me of Citibank's virtual number UI. It had sound effects and would play an animation that would show you a temporary credit card number using a slot-machine-like animation. It was hilarious but I would always dread using it whenever I needed it.

Man that App sucks. Still uses Flash so a PITA to make it working with modern browser security

Looks awesome(!) .. noted the select box doesn't style correctly in Firefox, but otherwise super slick. Definitely think it will be an interesting challenge to use this creatively / in a way that doesn't end up looking like every other use of it .. tho this comes from someone who actively notes thinly veiled css framework use and deducts 50% from an ongoing internalised competency / legitimacy monologue (for crimes towards homogeneity).

The feel of this interface is incredible. What's most interesting is that it evokes lots of memories from the games I played more than 20 years ago, and yet it is very distinct and doesn't copy any of them. Feels almost like something very familiar, but you can't quite grasp where you saw it. This is incredible and I'll be following this project, and probably will do something with this framework, too.

It feels very much like the Introversion games UI’s to me. Especially the hacking game (of which the name escapes me for a bit).
