🛰️ I just shipped Remora for the Figma Config Makeathon "a space debris cleanup game", built entirely in Figma and Figma Make with help of Sites. PLAY NOW 💯 Remora - Let's Clean our Space 🚀

Right now, more than 27,000 pieces of debris are orbiting Earth. Broken satellites, lost bolts, leftover rocket stages and nobody's cleaning it up. It sounds distant, but it isn't: this debris threatens the satellites our GPS, communications, and weather systems depend on, and could eventually block our access to space entirely.

I named the project Remora; a small fish that swims alongside sharks, cleaning their surroundings. We're the remoras. Space is our ocean.

The Makeathon brief was "design something that improves the world," and I wanted my answer to be playable, not just a poster.

Some of what's under the hood:

🎮 Two game modes: a free-flying drone collector with zero-G physics and a station-based sorting game where you triage incoming debris into recycling shipments

🤖 Three AI-controlled drones compete alongside you on a live leaderboard, each with its own personality and skill level

✨ Particle bursts, thruster trails, and docking animations — built frame-by-frame on canvas, no game engine

🌍 An animated Earth companion that reacts with rotating messages as you play

📡 Satellites cross your flight path on real trajectories — hit one and you lose cargo and hull integrity

🔼 A milestone-based upgrade system (Speed Boost, Cargo+, Magnet Field, Shield) that triggers mid-flight without pausing the game

It won't clean the orbit. But if it makes one more person think about the mess we're leaving up there — it did its job.

Hey everyone!

I made OVERTIME 🌙 a living map of how the world really sleeps.

The problem / the idea We celebrate the 5am club. We rarely see the others; the night-shift nurse, the new parent awake at 3am, the insomniac watching the ceiling, and the guard who clocks out at sunrise. I built this for the lyrics inspiration "8 billion people are 8 billion lamps in the night."

What it is A quiet, generative map of a single day. Each glowing light is one real person's rhythm, when they sleep, move, eat, and how stressed they are. Data visualization is drawn from ~1,200 lives across 9 regions of the world, gathered into one symbolic city. Add your own rhythm and watch your light fly into the crowd. Toggle Weekday vs Weekend and the whole sky shifts. You find your people, you find night owls, early risers, and the sleepless. No scores, no "good" or "bad" sleep. Just where you land, among a thousand others. Whether you sleep late or barely sleep at all, the message is one: you're not alone in the dark, so please take care of yourself. 💛

How I built it (workflow + tools) Designed in Figma and built entirely in Figma Make. The community isn't random noise; it's a research-calibrated dataset modeled as a mixture of real human archetypes (night owls, night-shift workers, the sleepless, early birds, long sleepers), so the field is genuinely human: people asleep at 6am, people with 3 hours of sleep, people who barely move. A generative particle engine renders every life as its own light, so no two nights look alike.
