A while ago I created a Mastodon bot that posts random text adventure scenarios and allows people to interact with them by replying to the posts: I've always wanted to develop the concept further. After playing some of the interactive maze/dungeon games on Gemini, like Mouse Maze and Maze of Murders, I've started putting together a little proof of concept to tinker with. Semi-roguelike, with some combat but mainly focusing on interaction and discovery. This'll probably take a long time before...

Flower Flood 🌺 - An adaptation of the Flood puzzle made popular by Simon Tatham. No client certificates required, and should work on even the most basic Gemini clients! That said, it looks really good with ANSI colours on. [gemini link]

Got inspired and coded up another CGI Gemini game in the past 24 hours. Just testing right now; will announce it when security features and input sanitization is all done.

I'm working on a proof of concept for that game I mentioned earlier. I won't give away too much just yet, but it's a word guessing game. The basics of gameplay are working; making it look good in Gemini will come later. The biggest headache right now is generating grammatically correct clues. Right now, the word list includes a lot of derived forms, like "walks" and "walked". I've used NLTK and WordNet to auto-generate clues, but the problem is, it lemmatizes words and gives definitions for the...

WHAT. The new mode in Wordsquirreler... how are you supposed to get in between those roots? Find a twenty-two-letter word!? Awesome though, I was just thinking there ought to be a new one.

waytris - tetris combined with conway's game of life — this is an old, small project of mine. it's tetris, but the board also obey the rules from conway's game of life. there are 4 modes: one where the board does a game of life iteration every 10 seconds, one where each line clear triggers a game of life iteration, one where every drop triggers a game of life iteration, and normal tetris. the tetris mechanics follow modern tetris guidelines, so t-spins and piece kicking and such will work as...

What kind of emulation do folks do? I'm currently using a Retroid Pocket 2 running everything up until Dreamcast. I'm trying to get PICO-8 to run on it, but it's being difficult for some reason...

My replacement playdate arrived in good condition. This thing is really neat. Really enjoying it so far. The firmware feels very snappy and good.

My playdate has shipped! Yay! For those that haven't heard of it, it's this weird little handheld with a crank and a 1-bit non-backlit display.

I miss old flash games. DDRKirbyISQ makes a bunch of nice little games, but their older work is all in flash. that also reminded me of Orisinal by Ferry Halim, who made some very soothing games to play in-browser.
