Show HN: An experimental "Vine for micro-games"

My original idea: we have Twitter/X for text, Vine for short video... what if there were a social-style feed for user-submitted tiny browser games?

* Build a game in a few hours * Hard 500kb limit (including graphics) * Fully sandboxed iframes (safety: no cookies, no network) * Infinite scroll: jump into a game, play briefly, scroll on * CDN-served games

Live site with some reference games I've made: https://xelly.games (feel free to use a temporary email site if you don't want to use your real email) Dev docs: https://xelly-games.github.io/

Tech: Svelte (FE) + Clojure (BE)

This is an experimental idea but production ready. Feedback or games welcome!
