i made an archery game that uses your charging cable as the controller

it’s a good day to be a phone repair guy

WHY ARE YOU PULLING THE CABLE LIKE THAT

archery!

sort of a spiritual successor to foldy bird, i wanted to make a game people without a folding phone could play too :p i was inspired by defend your castle and bowmaster prelude (although my game is very basic) source code: right-click -> view source

How to break your charging port speed run

praying for ur charger

Whoah, that is really cool Even more insane that it's web-based (I think)

yes i'm using the Battery Status API, all in the browser

@IroncladDev so sites can see what my battery level is

@IroncladDev yes, i made a site that uses it

@johnnygirldick @IroncladDev

@rebane2001 @johnnygirldick @IroncladDev looks like it's not working on brave. nice

@FuryTheUnicorn @rebane2001 @johnnygirldick @IroncladDev it is ios so probably the tech are from safari instead of chromium

@joe_umbriel @FuryTheUnicorn @johnnygirldick @IroncladDev it works in chromium but brave specifically disables the api

damn you'll just do ANYTHING for clicks won't you

i've been trained what can i say

Local repair shops:

Quality control: The cable should resist about 5000 insertion cycles, which should last the lifetime of the phone Real-world situations:

Amazing way to speed run the destruction of your charging port 😭

I want to know where you found a non-lightning cable that has the same shitty quality as Apple OEM cables.

it came with my macbook air lmfao

you can tell the cable was abused

smartphone company: we tested our phones for 10,000 insertions so you'll never need to replace it users:

Is this why smartphone brands are trying to go completely wireless?

The battery beggin for a 1% charge

that cable’s already on its last legs dawg

charger cable: mba, udahan mba pliss ...

This is awesome. This makes the charger function of the mobiles even more useful than before. You should do like a flappy bird or something with this exact same feature

i already did flappy bird with well...

@juan_on_sol Do you just hate phones?

@juan_on_sol yeah i think computers are friends and phones are evil

phone and cable manufacturers love this game

bros battery after 10 minutes

Charging port after 1 game:

how to shorten the lifespan of your device: a demonstration

Does it have MyPayIndia

amazing. so clever!

The average USBC port is rated for around 10k insertions. Wouldn't this work better with less damage if you used a magnetic cable like this? It would also provide tactile feedback with a "release" feeling once the cable detaches.

This is the final boss GLHF

feature, not a bug

the engineers who estimated mating cycles on that connector likely did not anticipate this.

Omg that power cord is cooked 😭

Environmental srorytelling

Yeah I’m gonna pass lol

up next: "i made a mining game that requires you to smash your phone screen with a hammer as the controller"

That poor connector port 😢

Features limited ammo and degradation mechanics by default
