I had a few asks about the ability to send users from other website to my game platform.

I'm wondering if a straight forward way for them to "send" their connected users to my platform? Should I simply create users on the fly ?

(I'm using better auth with login via gmail in my platform)

I have some super specialized workflow I wish I can run with their model, but looks like they don't allow programmatic call (claude code and codex allows it) in their plan.

Building a multiplayer game platform. Built a multiplayer pong game to dog feed the platform, and it got viral. Decided to make presales for it and got a little over $700 sales so far . if you want to give it a try, play it here https://antics.gg/p/side-out-94df7d

Show HN: 8-player survival Pong, the arena loses a wall every time someone loses

eric_khun — Fri, 14 Aug 2026 07:43:00 +0000

hey hn, here a game I always wanted to make. Every player defends one wall of a polygon, eight players, eight sides. When you lose your wall shatters and the arena closes the gap, so the shape keeps shrinking.

Dying doesn't put you in a spectator seat. You come back as a saboteur, dropping bumpers, gravity wells and spinner bars on whoever's still alive. It's usually the part people like more than playing.

It went around Reddit last week — about 30k plays so far, up to 80 simultaneous plays. Hopefully it survives HN!

Antics (https://antics.gg): a site to play silly little multiplayer games with friends, and to make your own by using our MCP

The bet is that current models are good enough that anyone can one-shot a fun browser game. What they can't generate is the multiplayer part (server, WebSockets, state sync, hosting), so that's the only part we've built: a browser SDK plus a hosted relay. Deploy a game, get one link, and everyone who opens it is in the same room.

Quickest way to see it: open any game on https://antics.gg/games in two tabs.

Trying to make an harness and not falling behind with how fast those frontier model evolve is hard. We've built our own harness to make games, but it became obsolete as soon as a new model dropped. Gave up and now just letting user use whatever harness they want on their side.

Everyone's about to make games sooner than expected. games are slow, might look buggy and unfinished. But I think that's just about time before we see fun games coming up. i'm betting on it with https://antics.gg . if you want to host your multiplayer vibecoded games, feel free to use us!

Show HN: Antics: Drop-in multiplayer for your AI-built games

eric_khun — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 07:09:51 +0000

Hey HN, We started out building a whole game-making platform: engine, editor, templates, the lot. It was a slog, and it kept fighting the thing that made it interesting: the models got good. With Opus 5, Fable 5, SOL 5.6, a one-prompt Three.js or Canvas game already looks genuinely great, and the models know those APIs far better than they'd ever know our harness. Forcing people through our engine meant limiting them to it, while solving the part AI solved better than us trying to buold the harness

The part it can't solve is multiplayer. A generated game is usually a single HTML file; making it two-player means a server, WebSockets, state sync, and hosting. So we threw out the platform and built only that part.

Antics is a browser SDK plus a hosted relay: real-time rooms, host-authoritative state sync, leaderboards. No server to run, no player accounts. Build the game with whatever you like (Three.js, Phaser, Canvas, plain DOM), deploy it, and you get one link. Anyone who opens it is in the same room.

Details for the curious: the SDK is zero-dependency, the wire protocol is plain JSON over WebSocket, and there is no server-side game code at all: one browser is elected host, and authority migrates if the host leaves. Keyless deploys need no signup (8 players per room, links last 24h); signing in makes the link and leaderboard persistent and raises rooms to 16 players.

If you don't have a game handy, there are some games build by our community (and us) at https://antics.gg/games .

link to the benchmark against parakeet TDT v2 (the one im using now with spokenly) : https://get-inscribe.com/blog/parakeet-moss-apple-speech-ben...

NVIDIA Parakeet TDT v2 still best, but look like apple is not far behind.

i'd be happy to switch to yours if you add parakeet support, but that ight defy the purpose of the repo

I have ADHD, and my calendar is a graveyard of things that were totally fine right up until they were on fire.

So about to release an iOS app that sends me early notifications about what to actually prepare, or do.

Best examples so far: on my last trip it pinged me the night before with a packing list based on the weather at my destination. Also reminding me to book a table for a dinner planned.

It's here for the waiting list: https://heylife.ai
