Show HN: yougotta.click, a remake of One Million Checkboxes (yougotta.click)
4 points by isoprophlex on Aug 27, 2024 | hide | past | favorite
If you click a light square, it turns dark and you get one point. If you click a dark square, it goes light and your score resets. Because the playing field is the same for everyone, you'd better watch out for other players on the field!

The idea for this site was stolen from the excellent onemillioncheckboxes.com made by eieio, and (poorly) recycled into this. I got quite obsessed by his amazing writeup on how he built One Million Checkboxes[1], and felt that I had to build something like this myself. Also, I've wanted to learn Go for a while now, and this seemed like the perfect excuse to do so.
