I like to picture this 2x2 grid of discrete->continuous interaction, and discrete->continuous UI state. Web is discrete/discrete.

What would be one example of discrete interaction/input and continuous state?

flappy bird lol? As a heuristic, many things that uses decay/gravity physics + discrete input?
