Hi Hacker News, I present to you "Lunchtime Broadcast", a walkaround-game (in the vein of Homestuck) where the mechanics are primarily walking your character around and talking to people in order to advance the plot. It's set in a fictional Korean high school, where you learn part of the vocabulary used in the webtoon "Sora & Haena!". I am a big believer in comprehensible input, and so I had Claude come up with its own original story that teaches vocab from the webtoon's first 4 episodes, but is targeted to my intermediate-ish level. The hope is that after playing through "Lunchtime Broadcastβ¦

The Enso Method is a new set of AI skills for Claude Code and Codex which I've open sourced on GitHub predominantly for developers who build for someone else who is making the product/business calls. I've been using AI to write basically 100% of my code since late 2024, back in the Sonnet 3.5 days, when it barely worked and there were few people doing this and very little support for this way of developing. I stubbornly thought this was going to be the future and came up with a methodology for making it work, before "AI skills" were even a thing. Since then I've continued to refine the methodβ¦

Throwing 20 chapters into one context was just terrible at narrowing its focus. I started building this tool as a way to help me with a few things...

I got sick of seeing my various family members playing solitaire games with ads or subscriptions, and it's 2026 where you can just ask for software, which makes it all the more frustrating that the classic games got enshittified, so I made this. It works on the web but there's also native mobile and desktop builds. I have put a fair bit of effort into the UI, rules, and bots for games that I personally know well. But of course I haven't played all these games in real life, and so some may have rules or UI issues that I will need feedback to resolve. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/β¦
