The Big 7
Seven projects, built one at a time. All seven are live.
PROJECT 01

Proximity voice
Hear players nearby, muffled through walls, with push-to-talk and mute.
Talk to Discord calls
Walk into a voice gazebo to join the people in that Discord voice channel.
Your villager
Pick a body, hair, face and up to six accessories. Your look is saved.
Respects permissions
You only see, post and talk where Discord allows you to.

Card games made for your phone. Your hand fills the screen.
Live · free · play money only- Blackjack

Swipe your hand
Big cards, one at a time. Swipe left and right, tap to pick discards.
Swipe up for the table
Your chips, the board, the dealer and everyone else’s stacks and bets.
Play with friends
Start a table and share a five-letter code. No account, just a nickname.
Fair dealing
The server shuffles and deals. Other players’ cards never reach your phone until the showdown.
Built for thumbs
Actions within reach, a buzz when it’s your turn, and the screen stays awake mid-hand.
Play money only
Chips are free and worthless: nothing to buy, nothing to cash out. Top up any time you’re low.
For ages 13 and over. See the Cardhouse terms and privacy notes.

A solar system, binary stars, the famous figure-eight three-body orbit and a galaxy collision.
You control time
Pause, slow down to a quarter or speed up to four times, with trails to show the paths.
Made for touch

All seven, live.
That's The Big 7 finished: a world, a price tracker, a start page, a card room, a groovebox, a pixel studio and a universe. Thanks for following along.
