Great idea! I added a github issue for my game platform https://gametje.com. It currently has 8 multiplayer party games. Play on your smart TV, laptop. phone to phone, or directly within Discord.

I made a Show HN post back in November: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45887709 but I've added two games since then.

Thanks for creating this.


Thank you! It should be on there now :)


Fun little game, worked well enough on mobile. Some of the upgrades were cut off and I left auto move on, but I was still able to beat the average fairly easily and was just off the leader board.

Some small tweaks for having everything be viewable and I'd say it is playable on mobile.

Nice job


> That's why having goofy names for them matters so much, because it reminds me not to believe the biggest bog lie of all: that I'm stuck in a situation unlike any I, or anyone else, has ever seen before.

Toward the bottom of the article in case you didn't get that far.


What languages would you like to be playing in? I guess Noot vir Noot is Afrikaans?


It is Afrikaans.

It’s not so much the language as the content. Songs and pop culture that 30-60 year old South Africans would be familiar with.


I know these guys. Definitely give their games a try! They are actively developing and making it better every week. It's especially fun in person. My favorite game is the dodgeball game.

If you prefer more quiz/slower paced games akin to Jackbox. You can check out my project which was also on HackerNews recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45887709


Thank John! Def. give Gametje a try as well, great games and even greater guy behind it :)


You can give https://gametje.com a try. I created an Android TV app for it (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gametje). Also works in browsers/remote calls etc. It is slower paced play from smart phones more akin to Jackbox Games (not action games).

(Also free to play with a Guest account)


Looks interesting, barebones but in a good way. Seems to be a good fit for how I am currently hosting. Will give it a shot after the holidays.

Thanks!


Give it a try it’s meant to be barebone and easy


I mean your profile is public and probably already injested by other LLMs... So what are you protecting? Anyone could add your username in there...


Really well done! Not sure how I never stumbled on your game as I am doing something quite similar (https://gametje.com/). I'm also hosting on a minimal server stack with "boring" tech. Would love to have a chat if you are open to it. I'll send you an email on your support email.


Thanks! Always good to see other folks sticking to simple architecture — it really pays off in the long run.

Feel free to shoot me an email, though I am currently swamped with the responses here and the Academy launch, so apologies if I am slow to reply!


In this blog, I dive into first letter analysis to make sure I can generate acronyms correctly in all languages my new game supports.
