I had fun building this also because of the project's stack. It's extremely simple, it's mostly a static page with React. It's small enough to use in-browser Babel and a single (messy) JS file. For production releases I

What’s more frustrating, writing in HTML or writing in a more concise format and having to maintain some build pipeline? I guess the answer depends on many factors; personal preferences and also the project’s context play a big role; person

This looks like a daily game, which is not what I’m after at the moment. I wanted to list games that put the user in control as much as possible. I would add it if the user could go through different challenges at their own pace. Still, thi

Thanks for the link, this is an amazing list! I especially like the "Map", though I haven't checked all of them yet; I'll make sure to do that later. Unfortunately these not always work on mobile; I'll have to add a

Unfortunately this doesn't feel like a good fit for this list, it's hard to put it into words but I'm looking for more lightweight, minimal and immediate games. Thank you for sending the link anyway, the game still looks very

The games have no ads, no dark patterns and require no registration. They just work, on both mobile and desktop. My website tries to be similarly user friendly and minimal. I’m hoping to capture the web 1.0 vibe of personal homepages, where

I also like self contained pages, especially how they simplify long term maintenance. For images I do a different hack, I encode images to base64 and embed them via CSS `background: url('data:image/jpeg;base64,/...')`, o
