HN Matching Pairs

A game where you match Hacker News comments to posts

Screenshot

Play game

Gameplay

The game consists of 16 cards (8 posts and 8 comments). It's your job to find out which comment was written for which post.

The data for the game is fetched live from Hacker News. It uses the 8 top posts and their corresponding top comment.

UI

To look at a card, you click it. When you're done looking, you can click anywhere to close the card. The card you clicked is now your selected card (marked by a black border). The next card you click will be compared to your selected card.

A common mistake is to click on the card you want to compare with - before you close the first selected card. You can't do this because a flipped card is big enough to almost cover cards next to it, making those cards hard to click.

Motivation

I made this mainly because I thought it would be fun to play (I see it as a Wordle alternative for Hacker News addicts).

I also saw this as a chance to get more comfortable with SolidJS and complex animations.
