Show HN: A Marble Madness-inspired WebGL game we built for Netlify
Hello HN! We’re a small creative studio specializing in real-time 3D experiences. Netlify approached us to design and build an interactive experience to celebrate reaching 5 million developers.
Inspired by the classic game Marble Madness, we created a gamified experience where users control a ball through playful, interactive levels. The goal was to blend marketing content with the look and feel of a game to engage users.
The app is built with Three.js [1], using our custom render pipeline and shaders, and uses Rapier for physics simulation [2]. The 2D content is overlaid on the WebGL view using CSS 3D transforms for a seamless integration with the 3D view.
You can read more about the project here: https://www.littleworkshop.fr/projects/5milliondevs/
We’d love for you to try it out and share your thoughts!

Show HN: DocComment – Code understanding tool using structural analysis and LLM
I built DocComment to solve the challenge of understanding unfamiliar code quickly, whether it's legacy code, AI-generated, or poorly documented.
The key technical difference from existing tools like Copilot's commenting feature is that DocComment analyzes code structure before generating explanations. It builds a structural representation of both the specific code snippet and its broader context, allowing the LLM to generate more precise and contextual documentation. It's not competing against Copilot or Cursor, but rather work with them.
Technical details:
1. Operates alongside code without modifying source files
2. Uses structural analysis to determine appropriate detail level for comments
3. Focuses on explaining both local code behavior and broader business context
4. Integrates with git repos for full codebase context(Planning)
Current results show improved accuracy compared to pure LLM-based commenting systems, particularly for:
1. Large functions with complex logic
2. Code with unclear variable names
3. AI-generated code
4. Business logic heavy sections
Would love feedback from the HN community. Both business and techincal perspectives are welcomed.
