I actually made a random game you can play without login or tracking or anything. Dunno if it's any fun, though 🤔

And you need a keyboard to play. Otherwise it's just a screensaver.

Sorry about the plug, but I am kinda proud of it.

I mean, that's a pretty badass screensaver.

Dude! This is amazing! How did you get it to run so smoothly?

There's some optimization, like not drawing anything out of view, but other than that I guess it's just the case of this game not really doing all that much, and the physics is delegated to a third party library.

OMG - This game gives me flashbacks to my Netrek days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netrek

That makes for a great screensaver though.
