Show HN: PicoPlayer – A tiny, open-source website for playing quality webgames

https://picoplayer.net/
3•popcar2•2h ago
Hi HN! I just released a new minimalist website that lets you play over 150 PICO 8 games on the web that I curated myself. It's fully open source and made from the ground up to be tiny and fast, allowing you to switch games instantly by hotswapping them into the game player.

The website also works as a PWA that works on mobile and can run offline after launching it once! The entire website with all 150+ games can be downloaded in under 4 megabytes of internet use. Any feedback or questions are welcome. Enjoy!

Hi! This is very cool. I'm working on a privacy focused browser-based game and really appreciate your attention to detail and privacy. I also appreciate the AI disclosure. It can be a touchy subject so kudos for getting it out there up-front. Nice work!

Also, the 8 Legs to Love (could be user error). How does it work if you don't have a numeric keypad on your laptop and it says press 2 to start? Could just be me, but wanted to ensure you have that feedback :)

Oh, the pixel fonts are a little awkward to get used to at the start haha. It says press Z to start, not 2.

Thanks! I try to be as transparent as possible.
