Stormoji is a daily privacy-first creative storytelling puzzle game. It combines the daily engagement of Wordle with the creative freedom of storytelling. The result is a single-page web application where players see four random emojis each day and weave them into imaginative narratives.
What started as a simple idea evolved into a technical exploration of deterministic algorithms, privacy-first architecture, and the challenges of creating consistent experiences without a backend.
Engineering Highlights
- Privacy-first design: No accounts, no servers, no data collection
- Data persistence: Stories saved in localStorage for up to six months
- Deterministic emoji selection: Date-based seeding algorithm
- Responsive UI: Clean and intuitive interface for storytelling
- Static site deployment: Fast and reliable hosting with minimal costs
This project showcases how to build engaging web applications with thoughtful and minimalist technology choices with a focus on user privacy.
