Issue #7

Two of this week's picks sit at opposite ends of the vibe spectrum: one lets you build a GPU, the other was made by someone who quit their soul-sucking job to turn it into a game. Throw in a handcrafted brain teaser and a '90s ski classic reborn in HTML5, and you've got a solid week. If you enjoy what you see, forward this to a friend or share HN Arcade.
