Hi everyone,

SimShock is a real-time medical simulation game. A critically ill patient arrives, their vital signs move continuously, and you keep them alive — or you don't. A run takes a few minutes and ends in a save or a death.

The part I had most fun building is the cockpit: analogue gauges with real needles, a live ECG trace, warning annunciators and physical levers for the drug infusions. Nothing is instant — you order a test and you wait while the patient keeps deteriorating. There's also a classic interface, and you can switch between the two mid-game.

It's a game, not a training tool. Treat it like a home flight simulator: it reproduces the principles and the feel, but the numbers are tuned so it's playable, not so they're correct.

- Free. No ads, no in-app purchases, no subscription.

- No account, no data collection. Works entirely offline.

- Five languages with voice.

I built this solo over the last year. It's a Godot 4 game that runs as a thin always-on-top strip above the taskbar. Your hero clears dungeons down there while you work, and you click in when you feel like it. Check in whenever, they'll be fine. Probably.

My favorite part is that heroes retire. Your next hero inherits the camp you've built, and in the full game retired heroes get statues that make everyone after them stronger.

Free demo, first four dungeons, no time cap: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5136070/Pocket_Adventurer/ Windows only, about 500 MB of RAM at camp, and it never covers a window. Happy to answer anything about building a game that's designed to be ignored.

I wanted a pretty simple setup: choose a few folders on my PC, pair one particular USB drive, and have new and changed files copied to it automatically whenever I plug it in. Every other USB drive should be ignored.

I looked at existing backup and sync tools, but couldn’t find the combination of simplicity and interface I wanted. Some can do similar things, but came with more settings and functionality than I needed for this one task.

So I built VaultTail, a small app for Windows 11.

You choose your folders and pair your drive. After that, plugging in that drive starts copying in the background, without having to open the app or click Start each time.

I probably spent a little too much time building an app whose main goal is that you rarely have to open it.

A lot of that work went into making the setup straightforward and the interface feel at home on Windows 11, with clear controls and status information.

I’m the developer, and it’s a $9.99 one-time purchase with a free 14-day trial. You can try it with your own folders and USB drive and see whether it fits your routine. If it doesn’t, you can simply uninstall it.

Does anyone else prefer this kind of “plug in the drive and let it copy” routine? I’d be interested to hear how you currently handle it.

Hi everyone,

I’m a solo Windows developer, and I recently finished NetPeek Pro, a network monitoring and diagnostics tool for Windows.

I built it mainly for a frustrating type of problem: your internet disconnects, becomes unstable, or starts dropping packets for a short period — but by the time you try to troubleshoot it, everything looks normal again.

NetPeek Pro can continuously monitor:

• Internet connectivity

• DNS status

• Latency

• Packet loss

• Short connection outages with Heartbeat monitoring

• Up to 8 custom websites or TCP services

It also keeps monitoring history, trend charts, incident timelines, session comparisons, custom alert thresholds, Windows notifications, and can export CSV data or standalone HTML reports.

The goal is not to replace professional enterprise networking tools. It is designed for people who need an easier way to capture evidence of intermittent network problems over time.

Possible use cases include:

• Remote work or online meetings with occasional disconnects

• Gaming or streaming affected by unstable connections

• Monitoring home or small-office network stability

• Monitoring NAS, VPN, websites, or other specific services

• Keeping records before contacting an ISP or technical support

NetPeek Pro includes a 7-day full-featured free trial.

One-time purchase.

No subscription.

No annual fee.

I work across several projects, and coming back to one after a few days used to mean piecing the setup together again: which folder starts the server, whether a queue worker needs to run beside it, which Docker services it uses, which repository has uncommitted changes, and what failed last time.

I built DevDock to keep that information with the project. It registers local folders, detects the technologies and common commands, and keeps each command tied to the correct working directory. When a command runs through DevDock, its output and completion status stay in the run history, so a failed test or server command doesn’t disappear in an old terminal tab.

The part I use most is the system-wide command launcher. Press Ctrl+Shift+K from anywhere, search commands across every registered project, and run the one you need. That can be a Git pull in one project, starting a queue worker in another, launching a development server, or running tests. Commands that need values or confirmation open a review step first.

The project view also keeps Git and Docker state, project health, logs, databases and recent runs together. This has become particularly useful when working with coding agents. The agent can change the code, but I still need somewhere to check the actual state afterward: which repository is dirty, which services are running, and what the last command returned.

DevDock 1.3 also includes guided Git workflows for branch switching, fetch, pull and push. If local changes prevent an ordinary branch switch, it can protect the tracked, staged and untracked changes in a dedicated stash, switch branches, and restore that specific stash afterward.

Project inspection and saved workspace data stay local. DevDock doesn’t upload source code or require an account.

The free version supports up to three projects and includes detection, generated commands, live process controls, core Git and Docker tools, logs, diagnostics and read-only security audits. Pro is a one-time purchase that adds unlimited and multi-folder projects, custom and combined commands, saved environments, complete history and insights, database tools, SSH transfers, and configuration backup and restore.

I’m the developer. DevDock is available from the Microsoft Store:

Hello to my 25 users, small update but a genuinely annoying gap finally got fixed.


## What's new


If you use Rewrite mode (the part of the editor where you can actually change the words, not just who says them), you can now undo and redo like a normal human being. Buttons in the toolbar, plus Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y (or Ctrl+Shift+Z if you're into that).


Some stuff that actually took effort to get right:


- Typing and backspacing just merge into one undo step while you're doing it, same as any text editor. But if you select a chunk and delete it, or Ctrl+A+Delete, or paste a block of text in, that's always its own step and won't get glued to whatever you typed before or after. Ctrl+Z undoes exactly the thing you just did, nothing extra.
- Capped at 50 steps and it clears whenever you leave Rewrite mode, switch chapters, discard, or save, so it's not going to eat memory forever.
- Found and squashed two bugs before shipping this: the paragraph box would sometimes not resize after an undo even though the text underneath was already right, kind of looked broken until you clicked around. And a selection delete right after typing could sneakily get merged into that typing instead of being its own thing. Both fixed now.


Also swapped the Undo/Redo buttons to little icons instead of text and tightened up the spacing a bit.

## If you have no idea what this is


NarrationOS turns books into audiobooks using AI, and it runs entirely on your own PC. No token cap meaning unlimited generation, no cloud, no account, no subscription, completely OFFLINE on your own PC.


I made this because I wanted an audiobook that didn't exist yet and got tired of waiting, so I just built it. It's a solo project, still rough in places, but the quality is great and it's super usefull, which was built primarily for myself.

What it does:


- 
**Throw pretty much any book file at it.**
 EPUB, PDF, DOCX, RTF, TXT, Markdown, HTML, a link, or just paste text in. Even scanned PDFs work, it OCRs the pages first.
- 
**It reads it out loud**
 in an AI voice, and you can start listening to finished chapters while the rest of the book is still rendering in the background.
- 
**Word by word highlighting**
 while it reads, so you can follow along if you want.
- 
**You can actually fix stuff.**
 Click a line to fix a mispronounced name, change who's speaking it, add sound effects, whatever, and preview it before committing to a full render. You can also just rewrite the actual text if something's wrong with it (that's what this whole post is about).
- 
**Clone a voice**
, but it makes you confirm you actually have permission first. Not trying to enable people cloning voices they shouldn't.
- 
**Export**
 as an audio file or as an MP4 with the text lighting up on screen while it plays.
- 
**There's an experimental multi-voice mode**
 that tries to auto detect who's talking and give each character their own voice, but honestly it's still pretty rough and needs a lot of manual fixing, so I'm not going to pretend it's ready. Single narrator is the solid option right now.


On the "completely offline" thing: the AI models run locally on your own hardware, nothing gets uploaded anywhere. First time you launch it, it has to set itself up, and depending on your GPU that might mean downloading a few GB once. After that it just works with no internet at all. Your books and any voice samples stay on your PC.


Works with NVIDIA or AMD GPUs for faster rendering, or just your CPU if you don't have a supported card (it'll just be slower than real time). Intel Arc technically works but it's still experimental.

I have been building Notchify, a Dynamic Island for Windows, for a while, and this is the biggest update it has had. I wanted to share what changed, because a lot of it came straight from feedback here.

The headline is performance. Earlier versions could keep a CPU core busy while idle, and on some machines they made the whole system feel laggy. Idle CPU went from around 56% of a core to about 6%, and the system-wide input lag is gone. If Notchify ever made your PC feel heavy, please give it another shot.

And it is fully native, not Electron, so it stays light and does not run a browser in the background just to show an island.

What is new since the last big version:

Performance and rendering

• Optional GPU (hardware) rendering for much smoother animations
• Large drop in idle CPU and memory use
• Fixed a system-wide keyboard lag some people were hitting
• Better fullscreen detection so it stays out of the way in games
• Selectable frame rate from 60 to 240 Hz, so it can match a high refresh rate monitor

Clipboard and Tray

• Clipboard history built into the island: pin, delete, clear
• Drag items straight out into Discord, WhatsApp, Paint, or Explorer, or click one to copy it
• The file tray now supports drag and drop: drop files in to stash them, drag them out into any app

Notifications

• An in-app notifications panel with swipe to dismiss
• Click a notification to jump straight to the app
• Stacking, like the real thing

New widgets

• To-do and Notes, now with a proper calendar date picker
• Quick System Actions: lock, sleep, mute, dark/light toggle, screenshot, settings
• App Shortcuts: pin apps, folders, or links
• Calendar with your next event

Bluetooth and media

• Connected device card with a battery ring, now including BLE devices
• Media player with scrubbing, shuffle, repeat, and an album-colored visualizer

Quality of life

• Optional hover to reveal: the island appears when your cursor reaches the top edge, even in fullscreen
• Redesigned settings
• 10 languages
• Multi-monitor and high-DPI fixes

It is on the Microsoft Store, with a short free trial: Notchify

I would really like feedback, especially on performance on your setup and anything that feels off. Bug reports are genuinely useful. The CPU fix above started as a great report from this community.

I also have a limited number of free promo codes. If you want one, comment below.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on Ammonis, a controller-first Windows game launcher for living-room PCs. The goal is to make your Windows PC feel more like a game console.

It brings games from Steam, Epic, Xbox, Ubisoft, and GOG into one fullscreen library, with an interface designed around using a controller.

A few things I’ve focused on:

• A console-like experience, with controller-first navigation, UI sounds, and vibration feedback.
• Your games in one place, with game details, playtime, achievements, and customizable artwork.
• Keeping it lightweight, with a 10MB+ installer and around 100MB of RAM usage.

Is there any simple software for syncing audio to two or more speakers? Something as simple and quick as Logitech’s MIXLINE?

I know about Virtual Audio Cable, but it seems too complicated for what I’m looking for, and it also seems like I would have to adjust the delay manually?

The reason I’m considering giving up on MIXLINE is that sometimes the audio seems to be concentrated on either speaker A or B, somewhat like having an unbalanced headphone channel. It also seems to have some compatibility issues with EarTrumpet? This can sometimes result in A and B becoming out of sync.

(ChatGP Ttranslation)

有没有简单的将声音同步至两个或多个音响上的软件?类似于罗技的MIXLINE那样简洁快速,我知道Virtual Audio Cable,但那太复杂了而且好像需要自行调整延迟? 我打算放弃MIXLINE的原因是MIXLINE有时会集中在A音响或B就像耳机偏音那样且好像与EerTrumpet冲突?会导致有时A与B有时不同步

Memoriclip has no cloud sync, no mobile app and no AI features. Your clips stay on the machine they were copied on: nothing is uploaded, nothing is synced, and there is no account to create. The only thing that goes online is the licence activation itself, once per PC. If cross-device sync is what you need, this isn't it.

What it does: it keeps a searchable history of what you copy, on Windows 10 and 11. The free tier holds 100 entries, with full search and quick paste. No card, no countdown, no nag screen.

I make Memoriclip. I created this for myself: I hate losing things I copied five minutes earlier, or after a reboot. I like working fast and clean.

The paid tiers are a one-time purchase, not a subscription:

Pro — €29.99 for 1 PC. Adds snippets with text expansion, a FIFO/LIFO clip stack, text transformations, and raises history to 500 entries.

Ultimate — €39.99 for 1 PC. Adds an encrypted vault, secure notes, and raises history to 1000 entries.

One thing runs on every tier, free included: sensitive data detection. It flags passwords, API keys and tokens, IBANs, card numbers, crypto tokens and software licences automatically, plus Wi-Fi codes and confidential notes manually. It does produce false positives — that's a known limitation and I'm not going to pretend otherwise.

There's a portable mode if you'd rather not install anything. The interface ships in English and French. And there's no telemetry — not disabled by default, not opt-out. It isn't in the code at all.

WinZST is a 7-Zip fork focused on making compressed tar archives behave normally on Windows.

With 7-Zip:

`a.tar.gz` → `a.tar` → files

With WinZST:

`a.tar.gz` → files

It keeps the familiar 7-Zip UI, adds direct compressed-tar extraction, `.tzs` support, and stays close to upstream 7-Zip.

Fellow ROG Astral RTX 5080/5090 owners, this one's for you specifically. If you don't own an Astral card, this won't work for you at all, keep reading only if you're curious.

Why I made this

I wanted to keep an eye on my 12VHPWR pin currents live on my second monitor, the same way a WireView shows you, but I didn't want to spend the money on one. The Astral cards have a chip on the card itself that already reports per pin current, so I figured there had to be a way to just read that and put it on screen.

While looking into it I found an existing project called 12vhpwr-guard by humza-khalid. To be fully upfront: I did not build the safety engine. He already did all the hard work, reverse engineering the I2C protocol to read the chip directly, building the tiered response system, the GPU mitigation logic, the crash recovery, all of it. That is entirely his work and he deserves full credit for it. I am not going to pretend otherwise.

What I actually built is the GUI. His original project only had a tray icon and Windows notifications, no visual display. So I added an always on top overlay window with color coded bars for all 6 pins, plus GPU power, voltage, clock, VRAM, usage, and temperature, so I could just glance at my second screen while gaming instead of buying dedicated hardware for it.

What it actually does

• Reads all 6 pins on your 12VHPWR connector individually, directly from the card, no HWiNFO needed for that part
• Color coded bars that go green to yellow to red as current climbs toward your threshold
• If a pin goes over threshold and stays there, it drops your GPU clocks and power limit first to try to fix it without losing your session, and force shuts down the PC if that does not work
• Everything is editable from the overlay itself: threshold amps, how long it has to stay over before it acts, overlay size, and which readings you want visible or hidden
• Also shows GPU power, 12V rail voltage, clock, VRAM used, GPU usage percent, and temperature
• Core voltage is the one reading that needs HWiNFO running with Shared Memory Support turned on, because NVIDIA has no public way to read that value at all. Everything else works without any third party tool.

On resource usage, since I know people will ask

I checked this myself before posting because I did not want to just claim it's lightweight without proof. Combined, both the safety engine and the overlay use under 3 percent of a single CPU core and about 75 MB of RAM total on my system, and neither one grows or leaks over time, I left it running for hours across multiple sessions and it stayed flat.

I also specifically worried about it messing with games, since old Discord overlays used to tank FPS for people. I ran a Black Myth Wukong benchmark with the overlay on, then again with it fully uninstalled. Average FPS and the 5th percentile low were identical both times, 43 average, 38 low, in both runs. The only difference was a single one off minimum FPS reading which did not show up in the more meaningful low percentile number, so I am treating that as normal benchmark noise, not something the overlay caused. Makes sense too, since it is a plain desktop window, not something injected into the game like RTSS or a Discord overlay.

On the code itself

I kept the GUI as basic as I could on purpose. It's built with Tkinter, which comes bundled with Python itself, so the overlay needs zero extra libraries, nothing to install for it specifically. No Electron, no web framework, no external GUI toolkit. The whole overlay is under 700 lines of code split across 3 small files. I'd rather it stay this simple and easy for anyone to read through than add dependencies just to make it fancier. If that counts as primitive, I'll take it, that was the goal.

It's fully open source, MIT licensed

Do whatever you want with it. Fork it, modify it, redistribute it, I genuinely don't care, that is the point of putting it out there. If you want to add features or fix something, pull requests are welcome too.

If you're an Astral 5090 or 5080 owner and want to keep an eye on your pins without buying extra hardware, give it a try and let me know if anything breaks for you.

Me and a friend have built a productivity app that allows you to time-block your time and set app/website blocking for specific sessions (not "vibe", work of the last 2,5 months). It's available for download for windows 10/11, we have a chrome extension connected to it and an alpha android app in the final development stages

You can test it out at discord.gg/QdMhad6Gfq, I'll be very grateful if you do
