Show HN: Million Bricks – a 3D tower of one million bricks you can buy for $10

Hi everyone,Wanted to share a game I built. It&#x27;s called Unscramble! and I believe it&#x27;s the simplest word building game.Rules: You get a few letters on screen. You need to make one word with all the letters. Tap a letter to select. Tap again to deselect. Faster you go, better you score.If you enter anagrams of the word it&#x27;s looking for, it gives you extra points. If you are stuck, you can either &quot;Ask Friend&quot; or get Hint.You get extra points for getting the word fast but you don&#x27;t get penalized for taking too long.I believe the simplicity of the game along with big touch buttons makes it perfect for one handed use.There&#x27;s 6 difficulty levels in the game, and settings for things like toggling the timer, relaxing background music, sound effects, haptic feedback, removing the background animation.If you want to try:<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;apps.apple.com&#x2F;ca&#x2F;app&#x2F;unscramble-word-anagram-relax&#x2F;id6794976057">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;apps.apple.com&#x2F;ca&#x2F;app&#x2F;unscramble-word-anagram-relax&#x2F;...</a>Would love to hear feedback to improve it.

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of &quot;roles&quot; from &quot;The 5 Choices&quot; (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role.The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time.The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role&#x2F;priority when its time is up. One feature that was essential for me was AlarmKit alarms, which only became possible last year (&gt;= iOS 26.1). Another was watchOS support, as a natural surface for time-related matters.The current version is strictly focussed. The timers track time allocation during one day. All timers are reset at midnight. I didn&#x27;t build any statistics - you can export the raw internal SQLite store and make any evaluation or dashboard you want from there.I don&#x27;t plan to extend the app nor to convert it into a service. All data stays local on your devices (synced between phone and watch locally) and fully open to you. No need for an account or subscription. Thus, I ask for a small one-time fee of $1.99.The website has a short video and rendered preview: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;owntime.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;owntime.app</a>If you want to go straight to the App Store: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;apps.apple.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;id6770125662">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;apps.apple.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;id6770125662</a>I look forward to your comments and feedback.

When Ox-alpha was free I had it build this EU price index&#x2F;tracker (the build took 40+ hours).Gemini deep research found the sources.Currently it tracks:- Fuel- Electricity- Currency- Housing- Groceries- Wages- Purchasing power

I had a hard time understanding the Japanese address system. Parts of addresses have suffixes like fu, shi, ku, chōme, ban and gō. Which suffixes are used varies between regions in a way that seemed random to me. I couldn&#x27;t find a map of the system with a modern visualization, so I made one. It also shows whether an area has a governor or a mayor. For example Tokyo&#x27;s wards have mayors and Osaka&#x27;s don&#x27;t.You can click around or drop the pin to explore, or write an address in the search bar.

Hi HN!My son spent a lot of time in 5th grade playing with the 2-dimensional PhET gravity&#x2F;space sims[1]. His STEM class uses it, and he was playing with it at home, and has been looking for more. I found several space sims&#x2F;playgrounds online, including NASA&#x27;s Eyes on the Solar System[2], but nothing that seemed to offer a real progression from what he was getting out of the PhET sims, so I built Newton&#x27;s Orchard over the summer for him.<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;newtonsorchard.app" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;newtonsorchard.app</a>The source is also published at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;andrewchilds&#x2F;newtons-orchard" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;andrewchilds&#x2F;newtons-orchard</a>It features deterministic time scrubbing, all bodies are editable, different preset systems and experiments, missions to complete (complete 3 to unlock the blackhole object type and mission), and a gallery for user submissions.I would very much appreciate feedback from HN - particularly from the lens of making it engaging and illuminating for students, and anyone that would like to just get a feel for how gravity works.

I built a cool browser scene, a shelter window over a dystopian city in the rain. Pull the breaker and a siren tower spins up. The wind-down is super unsettling and I love it.The siren is not a recording. Two port rings make a 5:6 dual tone, 515 and 618 Hz. The horn turns at 4 RPM and everything (loudness, brightness, doppler and stereo position) follows the horn angle you can see on the tower. Rain and thunder are the only recordings.Build it yourself, source is one HTML file and MIT: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;beeswaxpat&#x2F;sirenfall" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;beeswaxpat&#x2F;sirenfall</a>How it works: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sirenfall.live&#x2F;how-it-works" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;sirenfall.live&#x2F;how-it-works</a>Press F for fullscreen, S to save a picture.
