Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?

When I was a student there was this power-of-two game on my friend's iPhone that I was literally addicted to. I didn't have an iPhone and eventually the game even disappeared from the AppStore. I missed it very much and my friends jokingly mentioned building a copy just for me. They never got around to it but at some point I thought "maybe I should give it a try?". So I gave it a try with no game dev knowledge and the second iteration turned out just fine for my needs: https://kiryhas.github.io/memechain/

I've considered rewriting it to make the code better many times but every time I sit down to do that I think to myself "it works just fine, why touch it" and leave this idea for a while :)

BTW the idea of the game is to combine cubes with the same number and color until there are only 4 left.

Do you want a bug report? The lowest row doesn't fit into width of my phone's Chrome. I can only see few millimeters of the rightmost and leftmost cubies. Pinch zoom seems disabled so I cannot adjust. Tried switching to PC mode, but everything became too tiny. Rotating the phone also doesn't help. So for me it's unplayable.

Thank you, I'm aware that it sometimes looks off on certain Android phones, however I haven't had a case where it is unplayable. Could you tell me your phone model, what size/resolution is the screen?

I can't promise a speedy resolution since I don't have an Android but I'll definitely look into it when I get a chance. You can share your details here, send them to me by email or open an issue in the repo.
