Cursor Dance Party

  • The band Light Light made a delightful interactive music video based on the same principle: http://donottouch.org. Sadly, it appears only a recording of it remains online.

  • https://railway.app/

    >Bring your code, we'll handle the rest.

    >Made for any language, for projects big and small. Railway is the cloud that takes the complexity out of shipping software.

    Not massively convinced at the moment.

  • Crazy this is ten years old. Or at least, it was shared here once ten years ago.

    I like these fun examples, and the creativity of the person behind it.

  • This is the Web3 we need, but not the one we deserve.

  • "Application Error" for me.

    Another website killed by HN?

  • Sad little mobile users are sad. And little. And immobile.

  • Is there an alternative copy, I only get https://railway.app/error-pages/project-error?domain=www.cur... ?

  • This is more fun than it should be - reminds me of jumping around cells in a shared google sheet

  • https://cursordisco.ytmnd.com/

    Reminiscent of this internet classic :)

  • Nice to see the web being used properly for a change! :-)

  • One similar thing I'd like to see is a global voice chat room with directional audio

  • I took only a cursory glance at the website. 2 cores at 100% and a cursor that didn't move. When that hadn't changed after 10 seconds, I went back.

  • I figured out how to get infinite sized cursors ;)

  • Even though the website isn't working right now I immediately know what it is. Fun idea!

  • Sick implementation; but perhaps an epilepsy warning would be apt for some of the animations.

  • Hah. Thank you =). Great fun.

  • Fun site, but we need more fun colors for a proper dance party!

  • Now this is the kind of stuff I love visiting on the web

  • I can finally properly flex my osu! skills

  • Funny site.

  • I'm pretty sure this doesn't work properly in Firefox. Very sad to see that Chrome 101 == IE6.

  • Managed to make a massive cursor and it was broadcasted to the whole party. Had some fun hacking this with Chrome dev tools.

    Was simple as breakpointing in dev tools on "mousewheel", setting h.scale = 15, and then resuming. Massive cursor and massive fun. I'm sure people were wondering how I got mine so big. Considering it was clamped to 1.

    I've thought about injecting a non-zero number to crash the app or perhaps inject some XSS to run some fun code on everyone's machine but...I decided to be nice and not literally crash the party. ;-)

    All that's needed to fix this "exploit" is to properly sanitize data on the way in. Classic example of why sanitizing I/O is important!

    All in all-- fun app OP.
