TargetCraft

Inspiration + What it does

TargetCraft is a daily crafting game inspired by Infinite Craft—take two simple elements, combine them, and discover something new. Each day there’s a single target word for everyone to chase. You experiment by merging any two items, grow your personal inventory as you unlock new creations, and try to reach the daily target in the fewest combinations. When you finish, you get a results screen with your combo count, time, and the full “recipe chain” you used—perfect for sharing in the thread.

How we built it

We built TargetCraft as a Reddit Devvit Web Interactive Post with a lightweight crafting engine and persistent player inventories. Every pair of elements maps to one canonical result: the first time a pair is discovered it’s minted with the Gemini API and saved, and after that the same pair always returns the same result instantly. Daily targets rotate on a schedule, so everyone plays the same challenge each day while keeping their discoveries over time.
