    That's cool.

    The only 1D game I'd seen before was this one, which I saw at the Exploratorium (a science museum in San Francisco): https://www.wobblylabs.com/line-wobbler

    Someone made an open source clone: https://github.com/Critters/TWANG

    I gave that code to Claude and asked it to make a web based version I could play on my phone. It's not as fun as the version with an LED strip, but it's actually playable (which surprised me): https://tools.encona.com/twang

      Oh, I've seen that 1D RPG! that was actually at the last chaos camp as well :)

    Played this a lot at 39C3. Love the speed-up-the-further-back-you-hit mechanic.

    Thanks for building, lot’s of fun.

    Very cool. I spent many hours as a kid playing Zap by calico on road trips. Surprisingly fun for how simple it is. https://youtu.be/UxPFH5yHZR0?si=5vVK85a3ut5dQeGT

    I remember a 1D roguelike someone made for a 24h competition, was surprisingly fun
