Show HN: Termcraft – terminal-first 2D sandbox survival in Rust
8 by sebosch | 0 comments on Hacker News.
I’ve been building termcraft, a terminal-first 2D sandbox survival game in Rust. The idea is to take the classic early survival progression and adapt it to a side-on terminal format instead of a tile or pixel-art engine. Current build includes: - procedural Overworld, Nether, and End generation - mining, placement, crafting, furnaces, brewing, and boats - hostile and passive mobs - villages, dungeons, strongholds, Nether fortresses, and dragon progression This is still early alpha, but it’s already playable.

Show HN: I made an email app inspired by Arc browser

Email is one of those tools we check daily but its underlying experience didn’t evolve much. I use Gmail, as probably most of you reading this. The Arc browser brought joy and taste to browsing the web. Cursor created a new UX with agents ready to work for you in a handy right panel. I use these three tools every day. Since Arc was acquired by Atlassian, I’ve been wondering: what if I built a new interface that applied Arc’s UX to email rather than browser tabs, while making AI agents easily available to help manage emails, events, and files? I built a frontend PoC to showcase the idea. Try it: https://demo.define.app I’m not sure about it though... Is it worth continuing to explore this idea?
