Show HN: Do a chin-up, save a cat (mediapipe and threejs real-time browser game)

I made a game that forces me to work out

Do a chin-up, save a cat!

Created with mediapipe AI vision (for body tracking) and threejs (for visuals and animations)

It runs in real-time in the browser

As next steps I want to:

* improve layout on mobile

* add a global scoreboard

* allow people to upload their own cat pictures to use in the game for extra motivation :)

please let me know of any feedback or ideas!
