The Take

This turns demo recording into a tiny stage — you move a Minecrafty avatar with WSAD, point with Q/E, drop sticky text, and either paste a link or share your screen. It's a fun, low‑friction way to add personality to otherwise static walkthroughs; not a reinvention of recording tools but a clever visual metaphor that actually helps focus attention. Would love to see timeline editing or export options next — right now it's a delightful MVP for quick demos.

Post Description

Hi all!

This is Ara, an indie builder and solo founder.

The idea of MineDemo was born when I was create a demo video for a hackathon last month and I was thinking what if I can walk on top of what I show and pointing things around?

So this week when I got sometime, I created this little tool called MineDemo.

It's totally free, supports 20+ avatars and decors + drag and drop text; you can copy paste a link or use screen share. Avatar is controlled by keyboard (WSAD) and hands are controlled by Q and E.

It may have some little bugs here and there so please let me know if you have any feedback.

Here's a quick demo video: video:https://x.com/AZ_is_xyz/status/2024202715820339298?s=20

Recall – Record Demos from the Browser

Everything runs client-side and the UI gives you real control — pick MP4 or WebM, toggle 720/1080/4K, pick gradients, and resize the camera overlay. It's not reinventing the wheel (Loom/OBS already exist), but the minimal, no-install flow plus thoughtful controls (format/quality toggles, mic and camera sizing) make it genuinely handy for quick recordings. Would be way more compelling with basic trimming or one-click cloud upload.
