Mini-Game Genres

The four mini-games in app/arcade/ are clean implementations of public-domain classic game genres (the rules of Tetris, Snake/Minesweeper, Space Invaders, and Flappy Bird-style flyers are not copyrighted). Each is themed for the FDS Aussie survival-crafting aesthetic. We owe thanks to the original creators and to the open-source community for setting the standard. For anyone wanting to study a polished reference implementation of any classic, we recommend: | FDS Game | Inspired By | Best Open-Source Reference (MIT) | |---|---|---| | Scrap Stack | Tetris (Alexey Pajitnov, 1984) | jakesgordon/javascript-tetris - MIT | | Galah Flap | Flappy Bird (Dong Nguyen, 2013) | ellisonleao/clumsy-bird - MIT | | Zombie Horde | Space Invaders (Tomohiro Nishikado, Taito, 1978) | dwmkerr/spaceinvaders - MIT | | Mine Sweeper | Minesweeper (Curt Johnson / Robert Donner, 1990) | Many MIT JS implementations | If we ever want to swap in a fork of any of these reference implementations as the underlying engine, the leaderboard wiring in lib/db.ts and app/api/scores/route.ts will work unchanged - each game just needs to call submitScore({ gameId, score }) from its game-over handler.
