I made a free browser cricket game you bat by swinging at your webcam

1 Upvotes

I built Sportacle Cricket, a free browser cricket game where your webcam is the controller. You swing your arm, the batter copies your swing. No download, no console, it runs in the browser.

There are 5-over matches and quick chases, and a Play Worldwide mode that matches you against a stranger, usually in under 30 seconds. Camera access is needed for the motion controls, and if your camera won't cooperate there's a swipe mode too.

You can try it here: https://livewebtennis.com/cricket/?utm_source=reddit&utm_campaign=nzgaming

Has anyone here tried a webcam-controlled sports game before? Curious what worked and what felt broken.

Looking for pc part suppliers that can ship to Auckland/are based in Auckland

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m based in Auckland and build/flip gaming PCs. I’m looking for a reliable supplier who can offer pc parts at good prices, preferably with bulk discounts. I'm basically looking for any part that i can get which isn't too old (For example: only LGA1700 motherboards/cpus for intel, gpus 3060 and above for nvidia gpus, etc). Shipping would be preffered and I would be able to buy most of the time unless I'm not available. If anyone knows any suppliers or would like to help me out feel free to pm me. Cheers! (pls lmk if these types of things aren't available on this subreddit)

Anybody playing on North American servers? Getting really horrible de-sync, lasts around 15-25 seconds. And the packet loss symbol appears in red. Doesn't happen in any other games either. I play with my partner and we get the same issue at the same time. Thanks guys.

New PC help

11 Upvotes

Aging gamer looking to upgrade computer, budget $3-5k.

I don't know what all the specs mean now, I don't want to relearn.

Just want a PC that I don't need to think "will it run X game!" I spend to much time working to build one myself.

So what would you buy with my budget, I'm rural-rural so it's coming with the postie.

Not a laptop

Thanks in advance

In building games, do you start with one corner or plan everything first?

Post image
1 Upvotes

I usually start with one spot I like in building games and work outwards from there.

I've been wondering whether I'd do the same in petit planet, where you can change the landscape, coastline and sky as well as decorate a home. I could see myself wanting a plan first so the shoreline and sky fit together.

Do you plan the whole layout before you start, or figure it out as you build?

Budget -> Mid-range OLED monitor recommendations?

4 Upvotes

I've been on the hunt for a OLED capable of doing more justice for GTA6 (over my LCD) when it comes out next month. Does anyone have recommendations?

My price range is probably $500 to 900, though I'm trying to be flexible and not immediately go to the cheapest option... Especially since I know lots of the cheaper ones are dim... is this really a issue in your opinion?

Few I know of are...

Upper range
LG UltraGear 27GX704A-B 27" QHD 240Hz OLED Gaming Monitor
AOC AGON Pro AG276QSD 27" QHD 360Hz OLED Gaming Monitor
MSI MAG 272QPW QD-OLED X28 27" QHD 280Hz OLED Gaming Monitor - White

Lower range
AOC Q27G41ZDP 27" QHD 240Hz OLED Gaming Monitor
Dell Alienware AW2726DM 27" QHD 240Hz OLED Gaming Monitor
Samsung Odyssey OLED G5 27" QHD 180Hz OLED Gaming Monitor

Cheers

$1500 budget

5 Upvotes

I have a $1500 budget (Yoobee and Winz TIA) as I’m starting my studying journey for video production and management. I know it’s not gaming but I figure you guys are going to be the best for pricing. I’ve got an existing computer that died (and I don’t know what died, I’m pretty sure not the mother board cos we could get to post but nothing further, then it wouldn’t even show a bios) it had a new ryzen mid range cpu (few years old now) and I think I upgraded the board at the same time, with about 8 maybe 16 gig of at max ddr4 ram. It’s got a 1080 in it that’s run a lot of hours.

My question is do I take it into a store and have someone check what’s wrong with it and then try to fix what I’ve got or get a prebuilt and try combine the two together.

I know it’s valid, but I would like a full atx case that’s pretty to fix my nice mobo I’d just bought before the whole thing died, cos I’ve never had a nice rgb clear sided case.

I will also have more from Winz for other things I’d need but I’ll want to use that on other school stuff like premier pro, a keyboard, mouse, and a good chair, maybe even a way of stretching my injured shoulder while I edit

(I don’t have much money, I’m disabled and waiting on a surgery on top of that so not working, hence the trying to study to get a job I can work from home haha)
