A postcard that becomes a game built from your photo

Hi HN, I built a small product where you can send someone a real postcard, and when they scan the QR code, it opens a browser-based game created from their photo. There are a few game styles: - A tile puzzle - A retro 8-bit arcade game (with the person as the pixel character) - A spot-the-difference game with subtle image edits The games are handcrafted for each order and optimized for mobile. This was a fun side project combining some lightweight game design with personalized gift-giving. You can see it here: https://ohlookitsme.com Happy to answer questions or hear your thoughts!
