• Ask HN: Platform for 11 year old to create video games?

  Humble Bundle has a Godot bundle is available for the next day or so. That might be a good one to look at if you're ok with leaning into code a bit (gdscript is very very similar to python). https://www.humblebundle.com/software/learn-godot-43-complete-course-bundle-software Also check out the RPG Maker bundle. That's pretty point-and-click. You can have something basic up and running in a couple minutes... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Exploring Raylib and Open Source

  I selected this library as I normally use much higher-level tools to develop games such as p5.js, or GDevelop. Both these tools are amazing in their own right; however, I want to learn how these processes operate on a much lower level. These tools take care of a lot of issues for you ranging from asset to memory management. Raylib is still cross-platform but does not handle these tasks for the programmer which I... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Unity’s New Pricing: A Wake-Up Call on the Importance of Open Source in Gaming

  It's not as monolithic as you'd think. There are lots of engines out there but their communities aren't very vocal compared to Unity, Unreal, and especially Godot's community. Take a look at: https://itch.io/game-development/engines/most-projects And https://www.gamedeveloper.com/blogs/the-generous-space-of-alternative-game-engines-a-curation- If you look at both of these you'll see just how many engines there are... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (May 2026)

  Been working on https://searchcode.com/ again which I bought back, albeit as code search tool for LLMs. It solves the “should I use this library” by allowing the LLM to inspect search and analyse it before integration. Can use it to compare multiple repositories before downloading. It comes with a large amount of token savings and can be really useful when wanting to learn about a codebase. Since it does it anyway... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (April 2026)

  I reimagined https://searchcode.com/ since I realised LLMs have issues when it comes to understanding code you want to integrate. It’s useful for looking though any codebase, or multiple without having to clone it. I use it when I have candidate libraries to solve a problem, or I just want to find out how things work. Most recently I pointed it at fzf and was able to pull the insensitive SIMD matching it uses and... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Searchcode.com's SQLite database is probably 6 terabytes bigger than yours

  Searchcode doesn't seem to work for me. All queries (even the ones recommended by the site) unfortunately return zero results. Maybe it got hugged? https://searchcode.com/?q=re.compile+lang%3Apython. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Searchcode – search 75B lines of code from 40M projects

  Without saying what repos they prioritize, it's hard to take them seriously since some pretty simple searches were "uh-huh" e.g. https://searchcode.com/?q=kubelet&src=2&lan=55 versus https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=kubelet&literal=1 or the gold standard (although regrettably no longer open source) https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+kubelet&patternType=keyword&sm=0. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago
