Show HN: VideoPuzzle - a satisfying puzzle game where you unscramble videos
Hello HN!
I made a new daily game called VideoPuzzle. Play it at https://videopuzzle.org https://videopuzzle.org. The goal is to unscramble a video divided into 4x4 tiles. Each day features a new puzzle to solve.
The technical stack includes:
- WebGL for video tile rendering
- Cloudflare R2 for video hosting
- Pocketbase for player ranking
The game features both a daily mode with global ranking and a practice mode.
The project builds on my experiences from my other games (https://squareword.org https://squareword.org and https://clickword.org https://clickword.org). However, this one adds a spatial reasoning component, where you have to examine the motion of the video or objects in the video to decide where to place the tiles and solve the puzzle in as few moves as possible. I think it's quite satisfying when the final tile slides into place.
Here is a video of the game in action:
