Show HN: My journey into game development with AIhttps://playdowntime.com/I had a development background initially, moved out to a different field 20+ years ago, but often have a nostalgia with periodic attempts to create something. Wanted to share the last one, started 2 months ago as part of my upskilling with AI. Choice what to develop was easy - spent lots of time commuting to the office and wanted a simple game playable offline, without ads, within 5-10 minutes. I have never developed mobile games and this was an point of the experiment - how far I can reach? :)Stage 0 (full control & no trust) - I started with VS Code + Android Studio. Yes, Claude created something, however compilation and error correction was an old-style pain. Initially googled, then asked AI "check and correct the error". Then I realised that I don't need neither VS Code nor Android Studio. When I need to review a code, i can do it in project folder directly.Stage 1 (building the trust) - moved to Claude Code CLI. Jointly with Claude we defined the processes and the team structure (

Show HN: Imagerry – client-side image customizer and converter (WASM / WebGPU)https://imagerry.com/Hi HN! I built Imagerry (https://imagerry.com), a freemium, 100% client-side image converter and utility suite.### What it does till today:- 100% Client-Side: Zero file uploads, all processing happens locally using HTML5 Canvas & WebAssembly, though gpu is heavy on desktop apps. - Format Conversions & Resizing: PNG, WebP, AVIF, JPEG, SVG with high-quality Lanczos scaling (`pica`). - Utility Tools: Code Snippet Beautifier, App Icon Studio, Social OG Card Generator, and Passport Photo Arranger. - Cross-platform: Available as a PWA and desktop app (Electron).### Some Suggestions and tradeoff's for adding ?? :)I’m considering adding *local AI models* (such as in-browser AI image upscalers or background removers using ONNX Runtime Web / WebGPU) - by desktop apps preferable only.Since Imagerry focuses on privacy and zero cloud uploads, running models locally in the browser feels like a natural fit, but it comes with a *20MB–50MB initial model or even more depending on local model's download

Show HN: I Built a Free AI LinkedIn Carousel Generatorhttps://carousel-ai.intellisell.ai/LinkedIn Carousel posts have the highest engagement rate, but as an engineer, instead of spending hours on Canva, I wanted to build a tool that can generate LinkedIn carousels automatically.built this for my own startup and would like to give it to the HN community for free.Feel free to try it out—no email or signup required!How it works:[1] Provide a prompt. [2] Pick a theme (Professional, Creative, Tech, Minimalist, or Casual). [3] Adjust settings (colors, number of slides, etc.) and add branding.Tech-Stack Built using Firebase Studio LLM: Gemini 2.5 Flash lite (all I can afford to keep it free, and I found it was capable enough for the task. If there's interest, maybe I can add a pro version with stronger LLMs, and perhaps generate background images using Nano Banana)

Phantom Blade Zero dated for 2026: bold revolution or the next big overpromise?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46433989With an official launch date set for September 9, 2026, Phantom Blade Zero has moved from mysterious showcase darling to a concrete entry on the industry calendar. Developed by S-GAME and built on Unreal Engine 5, the title blends wuxia storytelling, Hong Kong martial arts cinema energy, and a self-defined “KungfuPunk” aesthetic while positioning its combat as fast, elegant, and distinct from the Soulslike mold it was initially compared to. The story centers on a protagonist with only 66 days to live after being framed for a murder, layering urgency with political intrigue and moral tension.Beyond the narrative, there is serious industry weight behind this date. The game has already surpassed a million wishlists across platforms and is slated to land first on PS5 with timed exclusivity, before expanding to PC. This marks another major swing by a Chinese studio aiming to compete directly with the dominant Japanese and Western AAA space — not just with production spectacle, but with cult

Airbnb has locked payment on my account for 8 weeks and still no follow-up emailhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44424041A little before mid-May I opened Airbnb, as I’ve done hundreds of times over the past decade, to secure a house for an important summer event with friends. I clicked “Book,” waited for the familiar animation… and the payment failed.No big deal, I thought. I switched to another card. Same red banner. I tried my balance of gift credits. No luck. Over the next hour I repeated the ritual from three different devices—laptop, phone, even an old tablet—using cards issued while living and working all around Europe, both Americas, the Middle East. Every attempt ended the same way: an error, no explanation.For the first time in ten years of globe-trotting stays—rooftops in Lisbon, cabins in Patagonia, canal apartments in Amsterdam, lofts in San Francisco, studios in Dubai—Airbnb slammed a door in my face.So began my long walk through support.The chat agent was polite and assured me a “specialist” would email me.
