It's from a hackathon, not really a product or anything.

The "game" can be solved in literally 1 question, it's just some fun weekend project.

A first impression is a first impression, for what it is worth.

I'm a believer in the saying: "don't let perfect be the enemy of good". And I respect someone building an MVP and then sharing it. But it does feel like we are setting the bar pretty low.

A bar of what?

It's someone's weekend project, there's absolutely no bar whatsoever.

The project is great imo, I might PR some stuff even.

I think you suspect that I am saying that you shouldn't like it. What I am saying is that this project shows obvious signs of being implemented with little care and shows very little attention to detail.

You are allowed to like things that are hastily thrown together. How much you like something is not directly correlated with the care with which it has been constructed. Conversely, you may find that you do not like things that have been crafted with significant effort.

I am saying this looks low effort and you are saying you like it. We are not disagreeing (unless you want to make a case that this is high effort?)
