Show HN: HackerNewsGames [Alpha]

I'm building a manually curated catalog of games made by the HN community.

I'v found several small gems while browsing HN, and it would've been quite difficult to find those games otherwise. So I've started a personal quest to collect those games into a public catalog with open source code and open data (everything is available on GitHub: https://github.com/labarilem/hn-games).

Currently the collection has data up to the end of 2022. The plan, of course, is to gather all data up to today and then keep updating the collection.

I've published this early version of the catalog to gather some insights and feedback if possible. Especially about UI/UX, which has been mostly LLM-coded to speed things up (I'm not an expert in those domains).

You can browse the catalog at these addresses:

- https://hackernews.games/

- https://hn-games.marcolabarile.me/

Please let me know what you think about the project!

Nice work. I just explored and played one round on 'backofyourhand'. It was fun. Will likely explore more games. Filters are helpful.

FYI using pagination erases your filters

Would be good to have the "play" button above the fold on the detail page
