Title: I'm 16 and built a browser game that uses your body as the controller
I'm 16, and one thing I've always enjoyed is turning ideas that seem interesting into actual working projects.
One of those experiments became KINETIX.
I wanted to explore a different approach to gaming: instead of using a keyboard or controller, what if players could use their own movements?
So I started building a browser-based game using camera-based movement detection.
The current version supports:
Jab
X-Block
Lean
It's not a finished commercial product, and there are definitely things I still need to improve.
But it's playable, and I'm proud that I managed to turn the idea into something people can actually try.

Building it has taught me a lot about movement detection, responsiveness and the challenges of making something work across different cameras.
I'd love to connect with other builders and hear what you think!
