It worked EXCEPTIONALLY well, far beyond what I expected, even for songs I used to stress test it which were almost guaranteed to sound bad, they sounded great. The spatialiser asks for song file path, room size, and distance of source. The materials of the room can be altered by changing the alpha coefficients. Here are a few songs I tried out and their review: Bill Withers - Ain’t no Sunshine: a very safe song for first try, clear separation of instruments, no stereo widening or spatialisation, no special effects. Genuinely shocked me, made me smile uncontrollably when it played. Sounded perfect, spatialised well (everything was distinguishable). Truly sounded “outside of head” and around me. Exactly the kind of song this was built to fix; flat and closed songs sounding open. Ye - This a Must: from my fav artist. A song I’ve liked but disliked the closed, flat feeling of vocals in. This didn’t work just as well as others. Lost a bit of thump initially, but reducing distance helped. This also did exactly what I wanted, though it still lacked some thump. Olivia Rodrigo - stupid song: A song i love because of the layering of instruments and her vocals. I used this to see what would happen in a song with a lot of stereo widening and effects already present.

Over the past few days I designed a program that spatialises audio using several psychoacoustic cues. I spent many of those hours understanding the maths and how to apply the cues. I’d researched broadly beforehand, so the code itself wasn’t too complex. It’s probably the most interesting project I’ve worked on. The cues, and what I explored Falloff: apply_falloff() How sound loses energy with distance (inverse square law). Air absorption: apply_eq() , apply_air_absorption() Air absorbs higher frequencies more than lower ones. I expected this to be minor, but it needed a whole EQ system, whose maths was interesting and took ages to wrap my head around. It also taught me about filters, which I used in later functions. Changes to one frequency interfered heavily with others, which I fixed with a peaking biquad filter (mostly AI-written). The attenuation constants come from a one-time-run file using the ISO standard, and are multiplied by distance and fed into the EQ. Early reflections: early_reflections() Initial reflections from nearby surfaces, ~5-35ms after the direct sound. By the Haas effect the brain doesn’t hear them separately, but they imply spaciousness. I first used IACC and ASW (below), then dropped them for directional cues (HRIR), so each of the 6 reflections comes from its surface’s direction. It accounts for room size and pressure reflection (from an absorption coefficient). Decorrelation: decorrelate() Artificially decorrelates a signal (FIR comb filters) into L and R, lowering IACC (interaural cross-correlation) and increasing ASW (apparent source width). An IACC of 1 sounds like a point source; lower sounds wider. It worked against my goal (localisation, not a larger source), so I dropped it from the direct audio, then from early reflections. Scrapped, but an interesting concept. Reverb: room_reverb() Probably the most important cue for space. Late reverb is thousands of colliding reflections, an unintelligible wash. I built it from feedback comb filters, combined and diffused through an allpass filter, and cut off at RT60 (time to decay 60 dB, from speed of sound, room size and absorption). Problem: the tail was distinct and ruined localisation (which relies on level differences between ears), like in a hall. Most of the energy making it legible was in its first ~50ms, masking the early reflections. Cutting the first [early reflection length - 20ms] helped a bit. Switching to an FDN made it denser and decorrelated L/R by design, so I could drop decorrelate() . DRR (part of reverb) Direct-to-reverberant ratio simulates source distance relative to the room: closer to the listener than the walls means louder direct sound, closer to the walls means louder reverb. I set the direct amplitude to 1 and calculated a gain for the reverb. Apply IR The only cue for direction. It convolves left and right impulse responses for an azimuth and elevation onto the direct audio and early reflections. They come from a HRIR dataset ( .SOFA , SADIE II) recorded on a binaural mannequin. I tried optimising this earlier and failed (older devlogs), and want to revisit it. Process audio Converts to mono, resamples to 48kHz if needed. Gets azimuth, elevation and distance from coordinates. Applies air absorption, falloff, then IR on the direct sound.

Quiet confusing - but atleast we are at some good place.
Why is Footprint thing so hard to understand.
Hakin Pad ``` Record 4 - Finished Schematics !!! (Footprints was …)
Hakin Pad - Schematics designing is over and PCB is here ! - currently - 7 + 2 keys - dual mode - 2 encoders and an oled display.
Hakin Pad - Final Design.. maybe
Hakin Pad - Finally !! PCB done, hard rearrangements and vias !
Finally PCB done !! - Hakin Pad Gerver view
CAD for encloser ! Hakin Pad in some last phases of software build!!
Hakin Pad - CAD and suffering is real but atleast bottom and 3 of 4 sides are ready! - Top and usb side until Hakin Pad is completed!
Hakin Pad - Done Inner Case and side opening for type c port.
Hakin Pad - CAD done with all sides done - open micro controller , display , mode buttons , encoders and keys with keychain hook !
Hakin Pad - Desgin on screen done ! visit Yousufprojs-exe/Hakin-Pad too
Hakin Pad - Final on screen design update. the more you see the more you get, It was great learning hardware as an Software enthusiastic person and it was awesome! thanks Stardance Hack Club....

Finished Part 3 of my Project. Here are the results for Part 1 - 3. Part 1 was simple simulation/graphical display of a projectile motion with inputted parameters such as inital velocity, acceleration, angle with the xaxis. Display was shown in both XvsY and Velocity-Time graph. Part 2 and 3 showcase Euler’s First order method. Graph of different time steps and how they differ from the ‘analytical’/projectile motion in a vacuum. Picture 3, shows 4 different graphs. Last graph shows how the error increase in max height changes with time(linearly). Next Part will consist of Heun’s method/Improved Euler’s method.
I have just finished implementing Heun’s method which builds on Euler’s First order method. Rather than using the velocity of the previous time step, it averages the velocity of the previous and the current time step, and uses it to calculate the y displacement. Similar to my previous log, I made 5 main graphs. The first graph(Heun Step size comparison) shows how the Y value varies with different time step values. 0.5s produces the lowest resolution and hence the blocky line rather than a smooth curve. The next 4 graphs showcase the trajectory of the object analytically calculated using motion equations vs using Heun’s method. The last two graphs portray the error this method produces compared to the time/dt. This error is almost negligible and is mainly caused by the low sampling resolution rather than the method’s inaccuracy. This clearly highlights how much better performing this method is compared to Euler’s method.
Just finished the implementation of RK4 method to my vacuum projectile motion. Since acceleration is constant, the RK4 method is under utilized, and so produces a exact replica of the heun graph. This is to be expected since constant acceleration leads to RK2 and RK3 being the same quantity, and therefore the formula simply becomes heun’s method. I plotted two graphs, one was the trajectory of the 3 methods, and you can clearly see euler’s method starts to drift away slowly from the heun and RK4 curve. This is even more clear in the error graph with log axis. The large curve of the euler’s error shows how quickly the error accumulates, as compared to the rough curve of the heun and RK4 method. This roughness is noise caused by the program’s mathematical rounding limits. The error is so small that the program is not able to properly round it. (floating point arithmetic noise). AFter this, I will most likely be implementing drag.
Completed implementation of Drag into my the 3 models. I used quadratic drag with the projectile being modelled as an sphere representing an apple. I tried my best to get the actual cross sectional area and the coefficient of drag of an average apple. Mass density i collected off google. Using the drag function that i made(implements quadratic drag formula), I calculated the acceleration components of the projectile. My main purpose was to show clearly that RK4 method is much more accurate with drag as compared to heun or euler’s method. AFter implementing drag and calculating acceleration at each stage in each method, i sketched few graphs using matplotlib. First graph was a simple trajectory graph of all the methods. I used RK4 method with a very small dt (1e-5), as an reference/analytical curve. After this i decided to plot the error curve between RK4 and heun method, i could clearly see that the two methods start to diverge with drag. Highest difference is when the velocity is at its maximum(largest drag), and the lowest difference is when velocity is very small/0, which means drag is almost 0. This gives similar results to the previous model with no drag(in which both heun and rk4 were replicas of one another/identical). Finally i did few plots of the methods with different time steps, and you can clearly see 0.5s is too big of a dt and ends up overshooting by a large amount. Finally, to clearly showcase the difference in empirical order, I decided to plot a range difference/error curve with both log and non-log axis.

Unfortunately, i did not manage to calculate the precise emprical order(through gradient) due to interpolation error at the landing boundary interfering with the fit.
Found few bugs in my program when i enabled input parameters. BEfore I had it set to a constant for ease. Once i changed the inputs, the Eulers method seemed to perform better than heun, which shouldnt be the case. I managed to find a bug in my Heun function(acceleration wasnt being updated in each turn), and now it works fine.
I decided to implement my drag rk4 model on earth, mars and the moon. This part was mainly integrating a system which uses different gravity values and air density values for different planets(which i got off google), into the rk4 model that i made previously. Due to the moon having 0 air density, the model predicted a graph with no drag, identical to the anaylitical curve in a vacuum. For mars, I learnt that the surface has a 11km thick layer of co2, which decreases with altitude(a decay function). I also included this to vary the drag for different altitude for the mars model. Here i have compared the 3 models, with same initial parameters. In the 2nd graph, Im only comparing mars and earth to see how big of an effect drag has on the projectile.
Added wind to my model. Since wind affects only horziontal componenet in this case, the two winds were relatively easy to integrate into the acceleration function. Here are the graphs showing the wind in effect, when Projectile is at 45m/s, angle of 45 to horziontal and under gravitational acceleration of 9.81. Unfortunately I was not able to add the Cross wind feature which I wanted to add. It involved adding a z-axis, since cross wind hits projectile perpendicularly. I am running low on time, this project is only supposed to run during holidays before school starts.
Added adaptive time, so dt shortens for regions where more information is available/lots of change, but increases in regions where less information is available/lack of change. Plotted 2 graphs showing adaptive time, one shows the projectile trajectory with dt shown/marked. YOu can see its not constant like the previous ones. Anohter graph showing clearly how much the time step changes. It works on growth factors and decay factors(depending on error size). Last two graph show KE, PE and Total energy of the projectile with drag and no drag, showcasing that energy is dissipated to the surrounding with drag ( as heat). With no drag, total energy remains constant(graph shows a partial straight line due to error build up of numerical method over 7 minutes and overshooting the ground inaccuracies.)
Tried to show the emperical order of the 3 methods with no drag, but only euler gave me its correct order (1). Heun and RK4 were identical as expected in a vacuum, they had order of 0.93. I researched the reaosn why it was not 2, and found that the landing-point linear interpolation error was the cause of it. In the graph you can see how the error decreases with lower dt, and increases as dt increases. Expected.
Succeeded in making a optimial angle calculator, which calculates the lowest possible angle to horizontal teh projectile should make to reach a target(a distance away) within some tolerance, travelling at a known inital velocity. . I then decided to plot a graph of optimal angle with max range. I also plotted a graph of speed against target/ranges. I used targets 30m, 60m, 45m, 90m, and calculated the lowest possible velocity and the angle which causes projectile to hit the target within tolerance. Originally, I though to loop through each value and try out combinations, which resulted in a very slow program, since the rk4 function was being called over 10000 times, given each call also had a dt = 0.01s, it took around 200s just to output the optimum angle.

To speed it up even more, I used my adaptive time model that i created earlier, this reduced the fixed dt= 0.01, reducing the total number of cycles needed to scan through whole motion
Monte carlo implementation. Running the simulation over random values of inital velocity and angle and height, to display the probabilities of different range values. This shows how likely the projectile will land at a certain area, which can be set as an target. This is important since projectile motion is never the same, even with same parameters, practically, it will not land exactly at the same spot, mainly because of shifting environments such as air resistance. So calculating ranges for different inital parameters(close to a certain mean) helps identify where the projectile may land(never 100% certain)
Completed a Heatmap and collected some data on the programs speed. The heatmap creates a grid of 50 x 50,angle x speed, and represents them using different colours to make it more easier to spot patterns. At each grid, there is one combination of speed and angle. E.g. 50m/s at 12 degrees, the colour shows the projectile range output from these inputs. Yellow represents long range,(as seen on the right of the image). We can clearly see the region at which the range is maximised( range grows with speed). Since drag is also involved in this, we can see that every speed has a omptimised angle which gives it the max range. IF this were to have no drag, all speeds would be optimised at 45 degrees. I also plotted a graph of optimal angle and speed, whichs hows which angle gives the maximised range at a certain speed. The graph shows that as speed increases, drag increases and so the optimum angle moves away from 45 degrees(the optimum with no drag). Its not a smooth curve due to background noise due to tolerance not being exact. The final table shows some tests i did which recorded the time the heatmap took to plot, there were few anomolies such as 50x50 one, which doubled from its First try ~60s. This is mainly due to background variance, such as other softwares running on my pc, which are using my cpu.

Title: Mechanics by @Imtiaz | Stardance
Devlogs:
Worked on the frontend, now the actual algorithms.
Pendulum coming soon!!
did make the system.py and partial deriv.py of mechmaths. I’m sleepy, gotta sleep
deriv.py done.
Well, the engine.py and the init .py was lwk easier than the deriv.py.
An overall document of how mechmaths work. https://github.com/imtua/mechanics/blob/main/mechmaths/README.md
this is lowkey a big win. now, single pendulum works only. I bought a domain for mechanics and that’s mechanics.help mechanics.help - homepage mechanics.help/pend - single pendulum mechanics.help/mechmaths - how mechmath lib works
adding double pendulum and some more metrics was easy.
Added swinging atwood machine and a button under the UI that says learn how mechmaths work that takes you to mechanics.help/mechmaths.
Added cart and pendulum and disk on slope, they’re working fine as they should have.
well, the rolling disk pendulum mechanism was the hardest part and absolutely nailed it.
done on the mechanisms description
Done on the readme files. Done on everything.
My first version advanced the solver once per frame with dt = 1/60. For stiff or fast systems, that step was too coarse and the energy drifted or blew up. So, I split each frame into 20 substeps of dt / steps (about 1/1200 s each). Each simulation can override the count with custom_steps, so lightweight systems stay cheap and touchy ones get more precision. Here we go, our new simulation_runner.py.
well, we added elastic pendulum. next up coming is bead on rotating hoop.
Worked on the mechsimulator.js file. and now you can: i. set peremeters for the simulation e.g. weight of the disk, gravity value etc. ii. go back to home with the top button iii. get the updated phone version iv. blue or green highlights.
SHIPPING INCOMING!!!!!!!!!!

Devlogs:
Devlog 1: 50 hours in the bag, joined stardance now! Added Ability system and backend Teams Logic (nothing visual sadly yet…)
Devlog 2: A Super Compact, Dynamic Ability System Drag and drop your Patterns (Cross, etc.) and Tada👀, you’ve got a new ability.💪 Need a special effect? Just plug in one of: DamageEffect SpawnEffect MoveSelfEffect …and many more.
Devlog 3: Big Progress on Units & Turn Logic Made great progress… ( •̀ ω •́ )✧ Added unit sprites Implemented turn logic Overengineered like always, xd but if i every want to make a 2v2 or how many vs how many , it will work Good thing: it now supports local X vs X , which is great for testing. :)) Next up: cool animations hehehe.
Devlog 4: Pre-Alpha Release 🥳🥳 Pre-alpha release is out! ( under review shipping, follow to see when comes live ;)) Also fixed positioning of ability buttons 🔥
Devlog 5: Camera Movement & Board Centralization Added camera movement and board centralization It feels super smooth ( zooming and moving ) thanks to lerp (love that name xd) 🤫 Also auto centers dynamically based on BOARD SIZE (if you want you can fight your friends on 1000 x 1000 tiles lul)
Devlog 6: Rebuilding the Ability System Completely restructured the ability system , allowing abilities to be either sequentially or in batches . Also improved the underlying patterns, making abilities easier to modify, reuse, and plug into the game.(see image) Currently implementing EffectTrigger , which allows Effects of abilities to happen on specific Frames or after specific Time etc.
Devlog 7: 🐦🔥 HUGE Ability CHANGES Finally finished the new ability system (just took like 14 HOuRs Xdd) The new system introducestwo ways of running abilities (🤫see video): ⛓️Sequential Runs all selected tiles one by one, and casts the effect 📦Batch Runs the effect on all selected tiles. Also Added Context so that Abilities/Effects can now communicate and influence each other : Cost = Base Cost + Selected Tiles ... Damage = Cost * Base Damage (infinite cycle of death 🩻) This will allow huge upgrades to make in a modular way complex abilities super simple and fast .
Devlog 8: Ahhh you, I hit (￣ε(#￣)💥╰╮o(￣皿￣///) Through the new ability System, was finally able to add hit flashes ! But it was such a pain to get the Shaders working 〒▽〒 , they were never firing once, but 3 - 4 times in one row which didn’t make sense for 1 SLAP. If you hit them hard enough they jitter 😱 … Future destination 🛣️ I could imagine updating the system to be reactive to the effect applied to each Unit (so more DMG => More BOOM💥) Also added finally animations (was time).🕺
Devlog 8: So thats how much more i can CUT you😈 100+ hours 🥳 Finally added a UI for Pool Points💯 (How often an ability can be cast) Pool Updates 💧 The pool shows Icon and Count/MaxCount , with custom ANIMATIONS when the count changes Blocking Manager 🫸 The new Blocking Manager keeps track of the game states and automatically, blocks specific ui. Very Dynamic ( •̀ ω •́ )✧ (using enums for options) Next UP: More juicy animations for the Pool count (showing diff, based on current selected tiles, and a crash animation (hopefully 😅, if i can figure that out xd ))
Devlog 9: Soo can i remove it?:0 New modular UI animations and able to delete and see order of tiles selected 😃 Tween Component 🎞️ Allows Resources to animate specifics (loop, ping pong) on specific actions (ready, shown etc.) For multiselectable tiles, there is a new layer which shows when which tiles were selected. Allows also the deletion of tiles if still valid.
Devlog 10: MOOORE ANIMATIONSS!!!! Added a TweenComponent🎞️, allowing quick *reactive* and configurabel way to add TWEENS Created AutoGenerated Scripts⚙️ (if you know Godot.SignalNames , in a way i created the same) And for some reason one of my scripts reset so i had to debug it completly from the beginning 😭, but somehow it just got better lol.
Devlog 11: I Hereby SUMMON YOU! (＃°Д°) Today we are adding CARDS , 🃏Cards contain MANA Portrait Health Duration (after how many rounds does the card play its effect ) One problem i am encountering is how to identify clicking vs draggin in godot 😵💫, but i believe i could use a workaround
Devlog 12: Cards and MORE Cards 🃏 I have added Cards which can now summon units Also needed to redo the ability validation as now the modular ability system came in handy. I was able to combine both the Ability System and the Cards , so that the cards can use them freely.
Devlog 13: 3rr0Rssss$s ❌ and ✅Results<> Completely rewrote ȩ̷̪̓̈́́́͗͝ŗ̵͔̥̜̹̬̭̯̏̆̽͂̈́̅̐͛̾͘ͅr̸͗̌͌̾̌̾̂́͜ö̷̪̰́͊̆͗̈́̿̏́̀̂r̶̨̮̹͎̹̫͑̅̂̽̾̎͌s , Now each method returns in its chain a Result<TValue, TError> Methods like Map,Bind,Tap etc. make it now super easy to process results and errors :))
Devlog 14: Is it SatisFeelingable enough ☺️ (Help Q&Q: what animation feels more satisfying ?:00) Added clean card animation (in not so clean code 😭😭) More information on who’s turn it is. with bumb up🆙 animations for the Q&Q see the videos <3 Next 🆙: Card Deck and card into effect animations (spawn animations if above works without coding problems, which i feel is a delusional hope🥲 )
Devlog 15: The Power of Plugins 🔌 Turned the Tween System into a plugin :)) Now it is way easier to reuse animations everywhere 🎞️ Also finished all Card + Hand logic 🃏 and cleaned up lots of code + bugs along the way 😭 The project’s recent work includes a refactor of the ability/card systems plus deck and cardcasting functionality.
Devlog 16: Extensions, Plugins && MODSSSSS Yes, it has been time, for what has given success to most games EVER!!!!!! ➕MODS Hard as hell to implement, as you need to make sure that each coding dependencies are implemented correctly… Had to change hole game structure to be easily extendable/moddable (fun and hard ) But i have to say i am learning more which is awsome But still many bugs and logic to fix/implement lul…
Ships:
👾 AKidsDream(name work in progress), is a early version of a turn based strategy game, where you can controll multiple different units to win. 🤔 Why A Kid’s Dream? When I was a child, I created a small board game using paper and scissors. It was very complex, but still incredibly fun to play. A Kid’s Dream 🌜is my attempt to recreate that experience. Not exactly as it was, but from the pieces that remain in my memory. It is a game inspired by childhood imagination, handmade rules, and the joy of turning simple ideas into an adventure. ⚔️ Currently the game is in very early alpha, basically a proof of concept. I would love support, about what you would like to see, Game Design tips and tricks and what a winning condition could be. (destroy objectives vs destory a unit(like a king 🤴)
👾 AKidsDream~~(name work in progress)~~ , is a early version of a turn based strategy game , where you can controll multiple different units to win. 🤔 Why A Kid’s Dream? When I was a child, I created a small board game using paper and scissors. It was very complex, but still incredibly fun to play. 🏳️🏴Goal Its not just an attempt to make a game , its the challenge of creating modular , future proof system and to learn to clean code , using all my knoweledge of over the past 4 years of learning . (so even if i dont get rich with this game i did learn a lot xdd) What’s🆕 As this isn’t the first ship of the project, the project now contains: Mana💎 & a working card/hand systems Juicy new animations (as you may have seen with thecard drawing) more ℹ️nfo (who is playing and support for multiple local players) Hardships (￣ε(#￣)☆╰╮o(￣皿￣///) Trying to code everything modular and clean takes time, which is valuable resource :( Also the progress feels much slower at the beginning (but i could reuse the modular ability system for the cards which made everything easier:)) As i have invested close to 200hourse, the project has grown so much that sometimes its hard to see how one system may break another , then its another 1 hour debugging...

Jokes aside, of course, Gentoo isn’t the worst distribution ever, but I have a full list of issues that I won’t get into here; let’s just say it pushed me into wanting to make my own distro even more. All of these distributions taught me valuable lessons, and each one has its strong points and weak points that I want to mix and match to create (what is, in my opinion) the perfect Linux distribution. I want to combine the ease of use of Arch with the configuration of Nix (with a better language, of course), and I want to expand on the customizability of Gentoo. Ease of Use The distribution should never inconvenience the user, and should always make sense. I’ve never seen a distribution that didn’t have some stupid quirk that lessened my experience. The closest I’ve come is Void Linux, and Void is likely my top pick of distribution right now, but it fails on the other goals I have for my distribution. Configuration The distribution should manage and configure all system packages. System packages are things needed to boot into a TTY, but past that, every other package is a user package. The distribution configures system packages using Lua configuration files, but user packages are configured using the standard configuration system of the package. Every configuration file, build script, package metadata script, etc etc that the package manager handles will all be in Lua to provide a uniform experience across all aspects of the distribution. Customization Nothing will be chosen for the user, except for the package manager. This means that the init system, the bootloader, the kernel, the libc runtime, etc will all be chosen by the user. This will be done by using Lua interfaces for things like the init system. For instance, instead of a package creating a systemd service, it will create a Lua table that describes what the service file would have described, but in an init-system-agnostic way. This table will then go through a processing step depending on whatever init system the user wants to use. This allows for any init system to work without having to write 100 versions of the same service file for different init systems. What exists now I’ve begun working on the package manager, but it’s still very early in development. I need you If you know C, Lua, general Linux distribution development, or want to learn, I’d love help with this project. You can find some of my contact info on my website if you want to help.

Author’s notes: And why did I decide to make this? Well, I saw how on the WebOS missions there was a lot of awesome stuff, the same main concept and yet they were all so different. So, since I like piano, decided to implement it :D I plan on making it more customizable in the future, such as changing the background color, or maybe the whole stylistic, making the top right buttons actually work instead of just being a decoration, adding maybe a few piano sounds, and of course more apps so it actually feels like an actual OS.

Since this is my first post i’ll explain what my project even is about. My goal is to create a WebOS that you can control with a midi piano, where i want to then implement some usefull functions for pianists, we’ll see how far can i go with my amateur skills. I’ve coded bigger part of html already. Currently though im having some problems with how it looks and the whole animation. I seriously need to optimize it because daamnn its laggy now. Also, what a coincidence with the colors of those seven sou- i mean balls of light.
I made the background and keyboard for my WebOS. Not gonna lie, used AI here with canvas, also found nice tutorial so i might do these particles that fly above when playing piano. i’m quite proud of making these glowing keys, well those are actually shadows but doesn’t matter. Also: made these names for keys, i intend for them to be toggable tho; made a button to hide/show piano, i think it looks good when its fully hidden and only the lights remain; and it’s now possible to control the piano with a pc keyboard, using “ a “ to “ ’ “ keys, black keys are the keys above like “ w “ and “ e “, and to change the octave with capslock; it’s also possible to control them with mouse For my plans, i next intend to make some actual apps, of course including notebook, but also metronome and midi recording. From other things i want to implement shortcuts, so when you press A0 and C4, for example, virtual keyboard hides or shows. Last thing is to make a mouse setting so when a note is pressed, until you stop pressing it you can move it to any position, while still playing that note (Toggable, so that it’s also possible to scale the whole piano really fast). I don’t intend to implement everything now, maybe after i make the first few apps and working piano i’ll ship it as WebOS 1, and then continue as WebOS 2 Oh, and should i name the keys that are possible to play with pc keyboard or maybe should i simply add a short guide of how it works and also maybe it would make sense to add actual sounds lol Anyways, feedback and critique is welcome, encouraged even, so i know what would actually be a good feature
Finally, I finished my WebOS, or did I? I want to continue working on it as WebOS 2. I’m quite proud of how it looks now. But anyway, here’s the Readme: PianoOSA WebOS, which has notepad and metronome apps and fully playable 88 key piano. Try it here : https://raw.githack.com/Korsor2137/PianoOS/main/index.html Note: it may take a few seconds to prepare all the piano sounds How to run: Yeah, just click the link. Or download it and then run index.html Features: -Full 88 key virtual piano, which you can play using mouse, with your pc keyboard (-a- to -’- keys, press capslock to change octaves to lower) or by connecting your own MIDI piano; -Keys glow when you play the piano; -A simple notepad and a metronome which when you minimalize will remember their location adn when they’re closed, their position resets; -A button to hide the piano interface; -Volume settings which you can change to your liking. Author’s notes: And why did I decide to make this? Well, I saw how on the WebOS missions there was a lot of awesome stuff, the same main concept and yet they were all so different. So, since I like piano, decided to implement it :D I plan on making it more customizable in the future, such as changing the background color, or maybe the whole stylistic, making the top right buttons actually work instead of just being a decoration, adding maybe a few piano sounds, and of course more apps so it actually feels like an actual OS.

Made a new, better banner and rewriting a lot of things I was told that there was too much ai used, so i marked clearly at what part ai was used and rewritten the other parts. Added settings saving and reading it, made the samples load faster and added a loading percentage, deleted a particle animation so it doesn’t lag that much on mobiles, made the piano look cleaner (deleted some nametags), added sustain on spacebar, added config section in the code, readded old and added new unneccesary comments, fixed a bug with music either glitching out or playing after refreshing and fixed a few esthetic choices, probably unnoticable, but color changes and also…. plaing still dre is way easier now, as B3 can now be played with q, sooooo you just go ‘adh’ a few times, then another few of ‘qdh’ and some ‘qsg’. use spacebar for sustain and mouse for bass notes and voila! also i made it possible to name the workspace in the web itself still, i have to rewrite most of css, as some parts are unneccesary or ai and some are well, lacking. also, fixed the piano sample loading, just too lazy to make a new screenshot also, i overuse the word ‘also’
Made new controls for piano, so it’s possible to play more sounds with keyboard itself left-new, right-old However i’m still leaving them in the comments if for some reason someone wanted to use them I suppose i should make these devlogs a bit more often, the previous one was like 8h gap lol (q: 45 means that q is A4, i: 57 is A5, the rest most people can figure out themselves)
Heck yeah! Finished all the rewriting, added a few new things blah blah blah Nobody cares! The important thing is that i’ve rewritten all css and most js, fixed many if not all bugs, so it’s foolproof. Yet another alt settings to play (in config). Metronome also sound more realistic. The whole thing should, and i mean should work better and faster. It looks better, sustain pedal fully works etc. etc. ANYWAY TEST IT HERE: https://raw.githack.com/Korsor2137/PianoOS/main/index.html
Ships:
WebOS BUT you can play piano. PianoOS also allows you to run a metronome as an app and make some hehe notes The most challenging thing was definitely the animation in the beggining, like hell nah, i must have spent like 6h just on a 5 second cutscene. Still tho, I’m happy with how it looks, and even happier how it can look in the future....

Pass n’ Play is a website that serves as a party game hub for all ages in which a group can play 4 unique social deduction games by passing a single device around the table. The site is inspired by a neo-brutalist design, caters towards mobile devices, and is meant to look more like an app than a standard website. What are you proud of? I am most proud of the third game I made, Signal Jam. It has the most unique features out of all 4 games and really pushed me to finalize my aesthetic of my website. It was also the game I had most fun with when play-testing with my family. Furthermore it was not a game I had drafted in my prior failed attempt of this project so I had no codebase to fall back on. What was challenging? I was shocked by how long it took me to formulate a design style for the website that consistently looks well formatted and neat. Creating this neo-brutalist inspired style was much harder than expected and I feel as though a few pages could still use some improvement. Feedback on the design and game flow of the website would be greatly appreciated by reviewers. Another thing that took most of my brainpower was figuring out the JavaScript. Unlike my CSS, it had no globalized file. Reviewers, if you are reading this, please let me know if there are better programming languages, libraries or software that are more appropriate for making a project like this. I would love to further improve my programming skills and spend less time correcting mistakes due to my inefficiencies. What should people know so you can test your project? This is a purely frontend website, so just click the “Try Project” button to explore the site. I would recommend trying to playtest a game with nearby friends or relatives if possible.

I think this project is ready to ship; each game is fully playable and I think now is a good time where feedback can help me greatly improve each game so it provides the best experience possible! Completed Work: Parties With a lot of assistance from AI (when figuring out how to properly get my localStorage function working), I have incorporated a new “Party” system into each game! It allows a group to save all of their names as a “Party” to their device so that they can quickly fill in every player’s name upon loading a new game. The new system supports up to 8 parties, which can each be given a unique name. Aside from making it easier to switch games, because of its localStorage usage, if the same group of friends regularly use my website, they can skip the step of inputting their names every time they decide to play. This idea was inspired by a similar feature I saw on an app (I can’t find its name) that was very similar to Imposter Who . Right now, the system is built into each game’s game setup screen, but I am considering moving it to the home screen so that each game screen is a bit more clean. If you are a reviewer reading this, let me know if the “Party” system gets in the way. Completed Work: Round Timer I also added the option for a round timer to the Imposter game. It was relatively simple as I just had to move around the timer code I used for Signal Jam. The CSS was moved to my global CSS file and I copied over and adjusted the HTML and JS. While I was at it, I made a few more polishes, such as adding a custom designed scroll bar . Next Steps: I am going to ship the project today. I already have my README drafted, I just need to make a few edits. I am not done with this project. I’m going to wait and see what feedback I get, but some plans I have for the future are making a globalized JavaScript file, adding a custom word/prompt bank feature to most games, adding more prompts to each game, adding more party games that can be played on one screen and adding a filter and sort system to the homepage.

Regardless, over the past two weekends, I finished Signal Jam and started the fourth (and final) game before shipping, The Outsider! Completed Work: Signal Jam Finishing this up was quick and smooth. I don’t remember exactly how long it took, but it was fast enough that I decided to wait until completing the idea I had sitting in the back of my mind (The Outsider) before posting another devlog. I reused the Results screen code from the previous games, tweaked the content to be specific to the game, and added a few extra if statements since this game has more win conditions. After playtesting, I made some small polish changes and committed everything. Completed Work: The Outsider This game’s flow was inspired by Chameleon. I went in expecting it to make a quick reskin of Imposter with a new word grid feature, but building that grid took more time than planned. Getting the grid to look good on both mobile and desktop was tricky. I eventually decided to lock mobile players into landscape mode so the grid would have more space and be easier to see when everyone’s looking at the same screen. Then, I had to figure out wrapping and line break issues to ensure the words were consistently displayed neatly. One technical highlight I would like to share is that, originally, I thought about storing the selected word index using a data-selected-index attribute on the grid container, but since attributes only store strings, handling 0 (the first cell index) would have required extra checks to avoid false negatives. Instead, I used a closure variable ( selectedIndex ) inside the function that built the word grid. This clean solution enables it to reset automatically each time the grid renders, which also clears the previous selection. Next Steps: The project is basically ready to ship! I’ll make one more devlog to add some localStorage features and wrap things up before release. Thanks for reading!"}, {"post_id": 67455, "ts": "2026-09-13T15:45:07Z", "hours": 9.9003, "text": "Devlog #07 The CSS Revamp is complete and the third game for Pass n’ Play is in development. After this devlog, I’m going to make sure I post more frequent devlogs. I keep procrastinating… Completed Work: Finished Polishing Website After the last devlog, I spent 4 more hours finishing up the CSS and the Imposter Game. The second installment to Pass n’ Play is now fully functional, with 156 different words to play with. It is also fully polished to a level I am ready to present, both in game flow and aesthetics. I think one thing that made this process longer than I had initially thought it would be is the fact many minute details needed adjustments throughout all my code. Since I had copied over the secret saboteur code for the imposter game before changing up the UI, I had to ensure I properly transferred the new style changes I made to the HTML and JS of the imposter game (since only my css is globalized). I finally think I have locked in the style that I would like to use for this website and that my code is a lot more organized than before. This should hopefully make development quicker in the future. Completed Work: New Game Also continuing from my last devlog, I have begun working on the third party game for Pass n’ Play: Signal Jam. Its fundamental gameplay is similar to the classic 20 Questions, however it has specialized roles which I believe create interesting dynamics and increase the fun. The game flow was inspired by another party game called Werewords. So far I have my game information, game setup, main discussion and voting screens done. It currently has 75 unique words as game prompts. I’m finding it a bit hard to add additional insightful details because I am basically repeating the process I had to make the Imposter. So, I’m going to describe how I have refined my process to work a bit faster than with the Imposter game. I first made the Game Information page so I have all the rules established. Each game is its own file that keeps all files specific to the game within it. So in order to write the game information I copied the Secret Saboteur info.html and edited the content to explain the rules for Signal Jam. This page has no JavaScript and was already linked to my generalized info.css file, so I did not have to do anything else. After that, I started building the game in sections, starting with all the code I would need up to the discussion screen. For the HTML, I would copy over individual blocks of code I knew I could reuse (often editing them to fit the language of the new game), note what new components I needed, and research how I could add it to the game. For instance, this game has a round timer, which no other game had, so I had to add a few new HTML and JS elements. Also, to keep things organized, instead of adding more stuff to the main game.css file, I used a separate style.css page. Once everything was polished to a level I was happy with, I started on the next chunk of my game. I continued this process until the game was completed. This was much better than what I did before for the Imposter game where I basically duplicated all the code for Secret Saboteur and then scoured through it to see what I needed to change and remove. Next Steps: I primarily need to complete the game (which is almost done, I just need to make the Results Screen!) Afterwards, I want to add a custom word bank feature to the game that saves with localStorage and an option to add a round timer to the discussion screen. Finally, I got to think of one more game to add before I ship. Thanks for reading!"}, {"post_id": 63127, "ts": "2026-09-06T19:12:46Z", "hours": 10.0089, "text": "Devlog #06 It certainly has been a while since my last devlog! I paused development for a few weeks in order to finish another website idea I had been working on. I honestly then procrastinated on working on this again once I realized I had to readjust and familiarize myself to the inner workings of my old code. It was definitely more disorganised than I had remembered leaving it. When I did eventually start, school was also beginning, so I have only been able to work on it in small intervals throughout the week. This slow development, combined with the roadblocks I stumbled upon (as described below) made the past 10 hours of development time come quite unexpectedly. Completed Work: Imposter Game Functionality As I said in the last devlog, I would begin to work on my second game: Imposter. I got the HTML done relatively quickly. I would say about half of my time was spent finishing the game logic for my Imposter game, which is now fully functional. It honestly took longer than I thought because my code for Secret Saboteur did not translate as smoothly as I thought it would to the imposter game. Directly copy-pasting the Secret Saboteur code for the Imposter game led to a few errors, and I spent a lot of time combing through the imposter code to figure out what needed to be changed or removed from the secret saboteur code. I definitely need to figure out a better approach for adding new games. Fortunately, I have been able to implement Secret Sabouter’s CSS without many issues. Completed Work: Design Revamp As I was working on Imposter, I had been brainstorming ways to improve the UI and had settled on a few ideas. So before polishing the CSS for the Imposter game, I decided to revamp and finalize the UI for the secret saboteur game. With my old design, I felt as though everything was competing for attention. I think I used the card style way too often, which did not bring much diversity to the design and made organization a bit fuzzy. With my new design changes, I believe my design now has more breathing room and utilizes each game’s accent colors more directly. I also tried to make my shadow sizes, border radii and spacing a bit more consistent. Instead of using emojis, I have been trying to complete SVG icons. I sourced them from Lucide’s Lucide and Bootstrap’s icon libraries. This definitely took up most of my time. Completing this took a lot longer than I was expecting. I think one reason time flew by so quickly is because when I first tried to change up my design, I messed up a lot of things. Midway through the process, I was questioning if doing this was a mistake, because I had ruined the look of Secret Saboteur and caused its game flow to stop working due to inconsistently changing a few class names. If I had to do this again, I would take note of exactly what I changed so I can easily work through errors and debugging. I also found that as I was redoing my design, I ended up cleaning up a bit of my Javascript and CSS in the process. There was quite a bit of code from abandoned ideas still hanging around. Next Steps: I would not say the Imposter Game or the design changes are completely done. Those 10 hours snuck up on me; I think I need to spend a bit more time getting each of my games the level of polish I would like. However, I don;t think it will take too long, as I am really close to finishing this “polishing” process. After that, I’m going to try and add two more games before making my first ship. You’ll have to wait until the next devlog to see what party game I add next. By the way, feel free to suggest any games and I’ll try to see if I can add them.

The core functionality was finished shortly after posting the last devlog (about 3.5 hours of coding in), but the real work happened afterward. In order to make the game feel more polished and actually part of the Pass n’ Play design system I had to tighten the layout, fix hierarchy inconsistencies, and clean up the UI. Completed Work: Javascript Right after posting the last devlog, I realized I had completely forgotten to implement the Guesser role. Once I added it, I noticed I had accidentally configured the game so the first player always became the guesser. This meant rewriting a section of my assignRoles() function so roles actually randomize correctly. After that, I finished the Javascript for both the guessing screen and the results screen. The biggest friction point was the saboteur button layout. I originally formatted them in a column, but switching to rows made the spacing and logic behave properly. The longest debugging issue came from something small. I had removed a header from the info popup in my HTML, but forgot to delete the Javascript function that controlled it. This “ghost” function caused a whole section of my script to stop working, and I kept thinking I had broken other functions. Once I finally noticed and removed the unused function, everything went back to normal. Completed Work: CSS Once the game was functional, I felt the CSS still looked unpolished. The text inside <main> did not feel like part of the same physical UI system as the buttons and headers. I rebuilt these text blocks into proper card badges so they look like real components instead of raw HTML. I also inverted the text hierarchy for the game header, removed redundant labels, and cleaned up the popup by removing the extra close anchor and header (which caused the Javascript issue mentioned earlier). I also spent time making sure the design would translate well to mobile. With some research and AI help (which only confirmed formatting issues and did not write code), I updated my layout so everything uses a unified 600px max‑width. This prevents the header from overflowing on smaller screens and makes the whole app feel like a cohesive handheld interface. The button grids now collapse into balanced two‑column stacks on narrow displays. While doing this, I adjusted a few element styles, reorganized the setup elements into a clean vertical column grid, and grouped Play Again and New Game into a structural wrapper so their spacing is predictable. Overall, making the spacing and alignment more intentional helped the entire interface feel more cohesive. Next Steps I am now starting work on Pass n’ Play’s second game: Imposter, based on the “Imposter Who?” party game that was popular earlier this year. I am also still unhappy with how the Game Setup screen looks, so I will probably adjust it soon. Any advice on improving the design would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! - 2026/08/06"}, {"post_id": 41139, "ts": "2026-08-05T04:50:09Z", "hours": 8.1986, "text": "Devlog #04 I have almost finished the first party game for Play n’ Play the past few days. I completed almost all of the game CSS, did most of the JavaScript and made some additional edits and fixes. For instance, after reviewing the HTML my sleep deprived mind wrote last devlog I realized I had copied the old game layout a bit too closely to my liking; including parts I specifically wanted to improve. With a clearer head the next morning, I redesigned the setup screen. One change I made, for instance, replaced the bulky button grid with compact quantity selectors for choosing the player and saboteur count. It was at this moment I realized I should go back into my planning doc and finalize my notes on game logic. Some of the mechanics I originally wrote down didn’t match the flow I wanted anymore, so I rewrote those sections and made sure the updated logic was reflected in my JavaScript structure. This redesign also helped me clarify how players move through the game (especially the setup and guessing phases) which made the later coding steps feel more intentional. JavaScript Progress I said in the last devlog that I would update once the JavaScript was finished, but my logged time was approaching the 10‑hour cap, so I wanted to post earlier to be safe. Right now, the JS is fully implemented up to the guessing screen, which puts me at roughly 3/5 of the game logic completed. My workflow looked like this: I explained my game logic to an AI (ChatGPT) and asked it to describe the functions I would need, just to outline their purpose (it did not write the actual code for me). With those descriptions and my own research, I drafted the most of JS file in commented sections like game setup , discussion , and event listeners . You can even see these comments in the JS screenshot. After that, I wrote the actual functions myself, discovering how each piece worked as I went. I should also note I used AI for some tedious tasks, like checking the game’s 105 discussion prompts (most of which I derived from the oold game version) for duplicates or adjusting ones that weren’t broad enough for a general audience. Completing CSS Even though I started with JavaScript, I eventually drifted into CSS (partly because I wanted a break, and partly because I wasn’t sure how clean my HTML structure was). I swapped back and forth between working on JS and CSS until I accidentally completed most of the styling. Implementing the CSS helped me see where I needed more classes or where the markup was missing hooks for interactivity. For instance, writing the CSS made it easy to envision and test how the progression button would look when disabled or enabled (depending on if all the required information on the game setup screen was complete). I’m hoping developing future games for this project will go faster now that I’m more familiar with this workflow. Additional Reflections Working on this project has taught me a lot about VSCode shortcuts I didn’t know before; small things that make typing and navigating code much faster. Learning JavaScript has definitely harder for me than learning HTML and CSS, but I’ve noticed some similarities to C++, which I’ve used for past hardware projects. That familiarity makes the learning curve feel a bit less steep. As for the website design… something still feels slightly “off.” I can’t pinpoint it yet, but I think the aesthetic could be improved. If you have suggestions, I would greatly appreciate feedback in the comments. Next Steps My plan is to finish the JavaScript completely, then polish everything afterward and commit my updates to GitHub. If all goes well, the next devlog will cover the finished, playable version of Secret Saboteur.

I was able to speed my planning process up by referencing the layout I had set up in my previous draft, making sure to not directly copy my old code. I may add a few more additional components as I work on the JS and CSS later on. I found that writing a big block of HTML at once makes it a lot harder to find typos, which I often made. Another thing I spent a lot of time on was cleaning my HTML structure so adding JavaScript later won’t turn into a mess. The hardest part was preparing the markup for JavaScript. I’m used to only setting things up for CSS, but after researching JS (and getting debugging hints from AI), I realized I needed to specify waayyy more classes than usual. Now that the foundation is finally in place, my next step will be making the game actually functionable by bringing it to life with JavaScript.

I styled the instructions for the first game, Secret Saboteur, on my site and added a new instructions page for another game - Imposter (based on Imposter Who? ). I reused the homepage’s layout and visual identity, but the fun part was making the accent colors fully customizable.

Devlog #01 Today, I worked on making and styling the homepage. I also drafted the info page for one of my games, Secret Saboteur, in html. The hardest part today was trying to organize my code so that I could easily add more games in the future. Much time was spent fixing a few syntax errors I made that broke my CSS design.

Devlog #02 Added consistent styling to both game instruction pages. I styled the instructions for the first game, Secret Saboteur, on my site and added a new instructions page for another game - Imposter (based on Imposter Who? ). I reused the homepage’s layout and visual identity, but the fun part was making the accent colors fully customizable. By turning the accent colors into CSS variables, I could swap themes right from the HTML without touching the stylesheet! I think this small change made the site feel cohesive while keeping customization effortless. It’s satisfying seeing design consistency emerge from my use of variables and general coding structure. Thanks for reading! - 2026/07/29-30
Devlog #03 Built the main HTML structure for Secret Saboteur (my first game) today . I was able to speed my planning process up by referencing the layout I had set up in my previous draft, making sure to not directly copy my old code. I may add a few more additional components as I work on the JS and CSS later on. I found that writing a big block of HTML at once makes it a lot harder to find typos, which I often made. Another thing I spent a lot of time on was cleaning my HTML structure so adding JavaScript later won’t turn into a mess. The hardest part was preparing the markup for JavaScript. I’m used to only setting things up for CSS, but after researching JS (and getting debugging hints from AI), I realized I needed to specify waayyy more classes than usual. Now that the foundation is finally in place, my next step will be making the game actually functionable by bringing it to life with JavaScript. Thanks for reading! - 2026/08/01
Devlog #04 I have almost finished the first party game for Play n’ Play the past few days. I completed almost all of the game CSS, did most of the JavaScript and made some additional edits and fixes. For instance, after reviewing the HTML my sleep deprived mind wrote last devlog I realized I had copied the old game layout a bit too closely to my liking; including parts I specifically wanted to improve. With a clearer head the next morning, I redesigned the setup screen. One change I made, for instance, replaced the bulky button grid with compact quantity selectors for choosing the player and saboteur count. It was at this moment I realized I should go back into my planning doc and finalize my notes on game logic. Some of the mechanics I originally wrote down didn’t match the flow I wanted anymore, so I rewrote those sections and made sure the updated logic was reflected in my JavaScript structure. This redesign also helped me clarify how players move through the game (especially the setup and guessing phases) which made the later coding steps feel more intentional. JavaScript Progress I said in the last devlog that I would update once the JavaScript was finished, but my logged time was approaching the 10‑hour cap, so I wanted to post earlier to be safe. Right now, the JS is fully implemented up to the guessing screen, which puts me at roughly 3/5 of the game logic completed. My workflow looked like this: I explained my game logic to an AI (ChatGPT) and asked it to describe the functions I would need, just to outline their purpose (it did not write the actual code for me). With those descriptions and my own research, I drafted the most of JS file in commented sections like game setup , discussion , and event listeners . You can even see these comments in the JS screenshot. After that, I wrote the actual functions myself, discovering how each piece worked as I went. I should also note I used AI for some tedious tasks, like checking the game’s 105 discussion prompts (most of which I derived from the oold game version) for duplicates or adjusting ones that weren’t broad enough for a general audience. Completing CSS Even though I started with JavaScript, I eventually drifted into CSS (partly because I wanted a break, and partly because I wasn’t sure how clean my HTML structure was). I swapped back and forth between working on JS and CSS until I accidentally completed most of the styling. Implementing the CSS helped me see where I needed more classes or where the markup was missing hooks for interactivity. For instance, writing the CSS made it easy to envision and test how the progression button would look when disabled or enabled (depending on if all the required information on the game setup screen was complete). I’m hoping developing future games for this project will go faster now that I’m more familiar with this workflow. Additional Reflections Working on this project has taught me a lot about VSCode shortcuts I didn’t know before; small things that make typing and navigating code much faster. Learning JavaScript has definitely harder for me than learning HTML and CSS, but I’ve noticed some similarities to C++, which I’ve used for past hardware projects. That familiarity makes the learning curve feel a bit less steep. As for the website design… something still feels slightly “off.” I can’t pinpoint it yet, but I think the aesthetic could be improved. If you have suggestions, I would greatly appreciate feedback in the comments. Next Steps My plan is to finish the JavaScript completely, then polish everything afterward and commit my updates to GitHub. If all goes well, the next devlog will cover the finished, playable version of Secret Saboteur. Thanks for reading! — 2026/08/04
Devlog #05 The first Pass n’ Play game is now fully playable and polished! The core functionality was finished shortly after posting the last devlog (about 3.5 hours of coding in), but the real work happened afterward. In order to make the game feel more polished and actually part of the Pass n’ Play design system I had to tighten the layout, fix hierarchy inconsistencies, and clean up the UI. Completed Work: Javascript Right after posting the last devlog, I realized I had completely forgotten to implement the Guesser role. Once I added it, I noticed I had accidentally configured the game so the first player always became the guesser. This meant rewriting a section of my assignRoles() function so roles actually randomize correctly. After that, I finished the Javascript for both the guessing screen and the results screen. The biggest friction point was the saboteur button layout. I originally formatted them in a column, but switching to rows made the spacing and logic behave properly. The longest debugging issue came from something small. I had removed a header from the info popup in my HTML, but forgot to delete the Javascript function that controlled it. This “ghost” function caused a whole section of my script to stop working, and I kept thinking I had broken other functions. Once I finally noticed and removed the unused function, everything went back to normal. Completed Work: CSS Once the game was functional, I felt the CSS still looked unpolished. The text inside <main> did not feel like part of the same physical UI system as the buttons and headers. I rebuilt these text blocks into proper card badges so they look like real components instead of raw HTML. I also inverted the text hierarchy for the game header, removed redundant labels, and cleaned up the popup by removing the extra close anchor and header (which caused the Javascript issue mentioned earlier). I also spent time making sure the design would translate well to mobile. With some research and AI help (which only confirmed formatting issues and did not write code), I updated my layout so everything uses a unified 600px max‑width. This prevents the header from overflowing on smaller screens and makes the whole app feel like a cohesive handheld interface. The button grids now collapse into balanced two‑column stacks on narrow displays. While doing this, I adjusted a few element styles, reorganized the setup elements into a clean vertical column grid, and grouped Play Again and New Game into a structural wrapper so their spacing is predictable. Overall, making the spacing and alignment more intentional helped the entire interface feel more cohesive. Next Steps I am now starting work on Pass n’ Play’s second game: Imposter, based on the “Imposter Who?” party game that was popular earlier this year. I am also still unhappy with how the Game Setup screen looks, so I will probably adjust it soon. Any advice on improving the design would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! - 2026/08/06
Devlog #06 It certainly has been a while since my last devlog! I paused development for a few weeks in order to finish another website idea I had been working on. I honestly then procrastinated on working on this again once I realized I had to readjust and familiarize myself to the inner workings of my old code. It was definitely more disorganised than I had remembered leaving it. When I did eventually start, school was also beginning, so I have only been able to work on it in small intervals throughout the week. This slow development, combined with the roadblocks I stumbled upon (as described below) made the past 10 hours of development time come quite unexpectedly. Completed Work: Imposter Game Functionality As I said in the last devlog, I would begin to work on my second game: Imposter. I got the HTML done relatively quickly. I would say about half of my time was spent finishing the game logic for my Imposter game, which is now fully functional. It honestly took longer than I thought because my code for Secret Saboteur did not translate as smoothly as I thought it would to the imposter game. Directly copy-pasting the Secret Saboteur code for the Imposter game led to a few errors, and I spent a lot of time combing through the imposter code to figure out what needed to be changed or removed from the secret saboteur code. I definitely need to figure out a better approach for adding new games. Fortunately, I have been able to implement Secret Sabouter’s CSS without many issues. Completed Work: Design Revamp As I was working on Imposter, I had been brainstorming ways to improve the UI and had settled on a few ideas. So before polishing the CSS for the Imposter game, I decided to revamp and finalize the UI for the secret saboteur game. With my old design, I felt as though everything was competing for attention. I think I used the card style way too often, which did not bring much diversity to the design and made organization a bit fuzzy. With my new design changes, I believe my design now has more breathing room and utilizes each game’s accent colors more directly. I also tried to make my shadow sizes, border radii and spacing a bit more consistent. Instead of using emojis, I have been trying to complete SVG icons. I sourced them from Lucide’s Lucide and Bootstrap’s icon libraries. This definitely took up most of my time. Completing this took a lot longer than I was expecting. I think one reason time flew by so quickly is because when I first tried to change up my design, I messed up a lot of things. Midway through the process, I was questioning if doing this was a mistake, because I had ruined the look of Secret Saboteur and caused its game flow to stop working due to inconsistently changing a few class names. If I had to do this again, I would take note of exactly what I changed so I can easily work through errors and debugging. I also found that as I was redoing my design, I ended up cleaning up a bit of my Javascript and CSS in the process. There was quite a bit of code from abandoned ideas still hanging around. Next Steps: I would not say the Imposter Game or the design changes are completely done. Those 10 hours snuck up on me; I think I need to spend a bit more time getting each of my games the level of polish I would like. However, I don;t think it will take too long, as I am really close to finishing this “polishing” process. After that, I’m going to try and add two more games before making my first ship. You’ll have to wait until the next devlog to see what party game I add next. By the way, feel free to suggest any games and I’ll try to see if I can add them. Thanks for reading! - 2026/09/06
Devlog #07 The CSS Revamp is complete and the third game for Pass n’ Play is in development. After this devlog, I’m going to make sure I post more frequent devlogs. I keep procrastinating… Completed Work: Finished Polishing Website After the last devlog, I spent 4 more hours finishing up the CSS and the Imposter Game. The second installment to Pass n’ Play is now fully functional, with 156 different words to play with. It is also fully polished to a level I am ready to present, both in game flow and aesthetics. I think one thing that made this process longer than I had initially thought it would be is the fact many minute details needed adjustments throughout all my code. Since I had copied over the secret saboteur code for the imposter game before changing up the UI, I had to ensure I properly transferred the new style changes I made to the HTML and JS of the imposter game (since only my css is globalized). I finally think I have locked in the style that I would like to use for this website and that my code is a lot more organized than before. This should hopefully make development quicker in the future. Completed Work: New Game Also continuing from my last devlog, I have begun working on the third party game for Pass n’ Play: Signal Jam. Its fundamental gameplay is similar to the classic 20 Questions, however it has specialized roles which I believe create interesting dynamics and increase the fun. The game flow was inspired by another party game called Werewords. So far I have my game information, game setup, main discussion and voting screens done. It currently has 75 unique words as game prompts. I’m finding it a bit hard to add additional insightful details because I am basically repeating the process I had to make the Imposter. So, I’m going to describe how I have refined my process to work a bit faster than with the Imposter game. I first made the Game Information page so I have all the rules established. Each game is its own file that keeps all files specific to the game within it. So in order to write the game information I copied the Secret Saboteur info.html and edited the content to explain the rules for Signal Jam. This page has no JavaScript and was already linked to my generalized info.css file, so I did not have to do anything else. After that, I started building the game in sections, starting with all the code I would need up to the discussion screen. For the HTML, I would copy over individual blocks of code I knew I could reuse (often editing them to fit the language of the new game), note what new components I needed, and research how I could add it to the game. For instance, this game has a round timer, which no other game had, so I had to add a few new HTML and JS elements. Also, to keep things organized, instead of adding more stuff to the main game.css file, I used a separate style.css page. Once everything was polished to a level I was happy with, I started on the next chunk of my game. I continued this process until the game was completed. This was much better than what I did before for the Imposter game where I basically duplicated all the code for Secret Saboteur and then scoured through it to see what I needed to change and remove. Next Steps: I primarily need to complete the game (which is almost done, I just need to make the Results Screen!) Afterwards, I want to add a custom word bank feature to the game that saves with localStorage and an option to add a round timer to the discussion screen. Finally, I got to think of one more game to add before I ship. Thanks for reading!
Devlog #08 Development has really slowed down now that I am entering the thick of it at school. Regardless, over the past two weekends, I finished Signal Jam and started the fourth (and final) game before shipping, The Outsider! Completed Work: Signal Jam Finishing this up was quick and smooth. I don’t remember exactly how long it took, but it was fast enough that I decided to wait until completing the idea I had sitting in the back of my mind (The Outsider) before posting another devlog. I reused the Results screen code from the previous games, tweaked the content to be specific to the game, and added a few extra if statements since this game has more win conditions. After playtesting, I made some small polish changes and committed everything. Completed Work: The Outsider This game’s flow was inspired by Chameleon. I went in expecting it to make a quick reskin of Imposter with a new word grid feature, but building that grid took more time than planned. Getting the grid to look good on both mobile and desktop was tricky. I eventually decided to lock mobile players into landscape mode so the grid would have more space and be easier to see when everyone’s looking at the same screen. Then, I had to figure out wrapping and line break issues to ensure the words were consistently displayed neatly. One technical highlight I would like to share is that, originally, I thought about storing the selected word index using a data-selected-index attribute on the grid container, but since attributes only store strings, handling 0 (the first cell index) would have required extra checks to avoid false negatives. Instead, I used a closure variable ( selectedIndex ) inside the function that built the word grid. This clean solution enables it to reset automatically each time the grid renders, which also clears the previous selection. Next Steps: The project is basically ready to ship! I’ll make one more devlog to add some localStorage features and wrap things up before release. Thanks for reading!
Devlog #09 I got some spare time to work today, so I thought I would add a few tiny features to elevate the Pass n’ Play experience. I think this project is ready to ship; each game is fully playable and I think now is a good time where feedback can help me greatly improve each game so it provides the best experience possible! Completed Work: Parties With a lot of assistance from AI (when figuring out how to properly get my localStorage function working), I have incorporated a new “Party” system into each game! It allows a group to save all of their names as a “Party” to their device so that they can quickly fill in every player’s name upon loading a new game. The new system supports up to 8 parties, which can each be given a unique name. Aside from making it easier to switch games, because of its localStorage usage, if the same group of friends regularly use my website, they can skip the step of inputting their names every time they decide to play. This idea was inspired by a similar feature I saw on an app (I can’t find its name) that was very similar to Imposter Who . Right now, the system is built into each game’s game setup screen, but I am considering moving it to the home screen so that each game screen is a bit more clean. If you are a reviewer reading this, let me know if the “Party” system gets in the way. Completed Work: Round Timer I also added the option for a round timer to the Imposter game. It was relatively simple as I just had to move around the timer code I used for Signal Jam. The CSS was moved to my global CSS file and I copied over and adjusted the HTML and JS. While I was at it, I made a few more polishes, such as adding a custom designed scroll bar . Next Steps: I am going to ship the project today. I already have my README drafted, I just need to make a few edits. I am not done with this project. I’m going to wait and see what feedback I get, but some plans I have for the future are making a globalized JavaScript file, adding a custom word/prompt bank feature to most games, adding more prompts to each game, adding more party games that can be played on one screen and adding a filter and sort system to the homepage. Thanks for reading!
Ships:
What did you make? Pass n’ Play is a website that serves as a party game hub for all ages in which a group can play 4 unique social deduction games by passing a single device around the table. The site is inspired by a neo-brutalist design, caters towards mobile devices, and is meant to look more like an app than a standard website. What are you proud of? I am most proud of the third game I made, Signal Jam. It has the most unique features out of all 4 games and really pushed me to finalize my aesthetic of my website. It was also the game I had most fun with when play-testing with my family. Furthermore it was not a game I had drafted in my prior failed attempt of this project so I had no codebase to fall back on. What was challenging? I was shocked by how long it took me to formulate a design style for the website that consistently looks well formatted and neat. Creating this neo-brutalist inspired style was much harder than expected and I feel as though a few pages could still use some improvement. Feedback on the design and game flow of the website would be greatly appreciated by reviewers. Another thing that took most of my brainpower was figuring out the JavaScript. Unlike my CSS, it had no globalized file. Reviewers, if you are reading this, please let me know if there are better programming languages, libraries or software that are more appropriate for making a project like this. I would love to further improve my programming skills and spend less time correcting mistakes due to my inefficiencies. What should people know so you can test your project? This is a purely frontend website, so just click the “Try Project” button to explore the site. I would recommend trying to playtest a game with nearby friends or relatives if possible. If you want a quick overview of my development process, just read the initial section and bolded text of the longer devlogs. They kinda serve as a TL;DR of the project’s progress....

The project comprises five distinct microgames, each designed around a different gameplay paradigm, including physics-based platforming, precision clicking, AI-driven Pong, dynamic object interception, and a physics-intensive Snooker Rush. I am particularly proud of the project’s modular architecture, responsive gameplay systems, and sophisticated physics implementation, especially the utilisation of RigidBody2D, collision bodies, dynamic signals, scene groups, and deferred physics-safe transitions.

Ships:
I built a chaotic, WarioWare-style collection of microgames in Godot where players have exactly 6.7 seconds to figure out and complete rapid-fire tasks, such as a platforming challenge to collect three garlics. The most challenging part was debugging the UI and player movement while figuring out how to manage global game states—like tracking the player’s four lives and overall progress—across completely isolated scenes. I am incredibly proud of the modular scene architecture I created, especially the standalone, reusable countdown timer that seamlessly triggers instant transitions to the next minigame, victory screen, or game-over screen via a global Autoload script. To test the game, reviewers don’t need to download or install anything; you can simply click the live itch.io link to play the HTML5 export directly in your web browser, using the Arrow Keys (or A/D) to move and Space (or W/Up) to jump.

The most formidable challenge was architecting a robust global state manager and implementing deferred physics transitions to ensure the engine could handle rapid, asynchronous scene swaps without dropping frames or triggering collision-based crashes.

I developed Triple-T Games, a fast-paced, Tung Tung Sahur-themed 2D minigame experience inspired by the rapid-fire structure of WarioWare, using the Godot 4.1 game engine. The project comprises five distinct microgames, each designed around a different gameplay paradigm, including physics-based platforming, precision clicking, AI-driven Pong, dynamic object interception, and a physics-intensive Snooker Rush. I am particularly proud of the project’s modular architecture, responsive gameplay systems, and sophisticated physics implementation, especially the utilisation of RigidBody2D, collision bodies, dynamic signals, scene groups, and deferred physics-safe transitions. Developing the project also presented several technical challenges, particularly in ensuring seamless scene transitions, synchronising global lives and progression across independent minigames, managing collision events without disrupting the physics engine, and creating consistent difficulty and timing systems. Players should know that the game is intended to be experienced as a rapid, reaction-oriented survival gauntlet: begin with five lives, navigate the sequence of challenges, make effective use of the settings and level-skip functionality, and attempt to survive the entire progression. The project can be played directly through the Itch.io browser-based demo, allowing the complete experience to be tested without additional configuration....

Its basically a giant state machine. You tell it what the players do and based on that it changes the game state. My experience The most challenging thing by far was finding a data model that would allow everything you can do in MTG. And since cards are written in english, there are A LOT of possible actions. Shiny new things I learned I finallyyy have a proper understanding of generics; before it was just this “magic in angle brackets” Pros & Cons of different data structures while I decided what to use for storing cards Experience in how to manage a project that has > 10 files. Might actually be the most valuable thing I gained from all of this.. A somewhat decent understanding of lifetimes in rust Also I finally had a look at metaprogramming with macros (only declarative macros though) I am proud of this The thing I am really proud of in here is how you can have these generic components that define behaviour or targets or such an how you can then use them to create cards as pure data through the power of generics and macros. They are literally just a constant in the code. My experience with AI Later in the implementation when my data structure was mostly fixed I tried having an AI agent do some of the boring work of hooking things up, but it didn’t work. And by that I mean it was pretty awful. It didn’t understand my design, reinvented the wheel several times, took shortcuts that would work for exactly this one card I asked about and just created wrong behaviour. Maybe this was a me problem, because I provided bad context, but I think I will stick writing code by hand for a while longer.", "repo": "https://github.com/andraaal/storm", "demo": "https://crates.io/crates/storm-engine"}]...

And I am really proud of it, since this is by far the most advanced thing I have ever done with generics and it is beautiful. All these ifs are just gone
#5 Devlog I redesigned my engine (not implemented yet); It makes much more extensive use of generics now and has in general much better type-safety. This eliminates a ton of bounds checks and potential errors, because the compiler can prove at compile-time that the program is valid (or not). Also kind of crazy that it says 3.5h for designing. I feel like I spent most of my time in the browser explaining my code to ChatGPT to understand it better myself (ChatGPT did little besides saying “Ah, yes, great idea” and explaining my idea back to me)
#6 Devlog You know the rewrite I talked about last time? I am STILL doing that. It changed so much more that I had expected. Now I have changed just about every function signature in the entire project. Also there were a million little problems that also needed attention. I think I am close to completing the rewrite though; the core types are all set, I just have to deal with the downstream effects of changing them. That shouldn’t (I hope) take too long
#5 Devlog Of course fixing stuff took longer than I thought (as always), but we are almost there. Only 16 more errors to go!
#8 Devlog (Sorry; last one is actually #7) So I finally completed the rewrite my entire project now uses my new overengineered typing. Yay! Finally!! But that also meant that I had to change my library API to use all of those types. What you see below are just the function definitions for that + some minor input validation. And, yes, you could defnitiely make that a lot shorter with macros but it is 1am and I can’t be bothered to go learn how they work.
#9 Devlog Casting spells is now almost complete, and my overengineered type system got even more crazy. We have now: Card , that represent, well… cards StackDefinition , which the targets and some other metadata for Spells Selectors , as there name suggests, select objects Behaviour , a closure that can change the game state, but with a lot of fancy type shenanigans to make sure it is only used with appropriate StackDefinitions. Below are some highlights from the new types
#10 Devlog How could I forget git THIS hard??? I didn’t make a single commit in like the last 20 hours. And now everything is so different that I might as well make a new repo. Also the line count in the screenshots is bugged somehow. Its more like +28XX lines. And it took THREE screenshots!! Anyways, heres an actual update: Now casting spells is finally complete (kinda) and static abilities work too. They even share some code through common “behaviour”. Thats just some common action that can be executed on the game state. Also with the help of a few todo! macros (Magic for fixing anything, but throws at runtime) the code finally compiles again. For like the second time in the entire development. There is bound to be a million bugs in there….
#11 Devlog (AI adventure) So, since stardance ends soon I have to ship this and I am not sure if I can manage in time. So I had a look at AI coding and how to do it properly, because I tried vibe-coding before and it was abysmal. And I have to say it was miles ahead of anything else AI has ever done for me, when you use some specialized skills, create a roadmap first, split it into tickets (The AI even created tickets on GitHub for whatever godforsaken reason; It knew this is a solo project), structure your work, … It is also a TON more work. And it was still lacking. Maybe it was because my student subscription isn’t that powerful, maybe MTG is just too complex or I didn’t explain my messed up design well enough to the agent. Either way I wasted a bunch more time and … yeah, here’s hoping that I will get a working v0.1 alpha in time!
#12 Of course there is an extension of one month right as I was going to ship… Anyway I published it on crates.io, I added some minimal executable example, did the README and added some metadata for publication. And I drew this wonderful new banner. Its a bit whacky, but I like it
Ships:
storm I made a rules engine for the card game MTG. Its basically a giant state machine. You tell it what the players do and based on that it changes the game state. My experience The most challenging thing by far was finding a data model that would allow everything you can do in MTG. And since cards are written in english, there are A LOT of possible actions. Shiny new things I learned I finallyyy have a proper understanding of generics; before it was just this “magic in angle brackets” Pros & Cons of different data structures while I decided what to use for storing cards Experience in how to manage a project that has > 10 files. Might actually be the most valuable thing I gained from all of this.. A somewhat decent understanding of lifetimes in rust Also I finally had a look at metaprogramming with macros (only declarative macros though) I am proud of this The thing I am really proud of in here is how you can have these generic components that define behaviour or targets or such an how you can then use them to create cards as pure data through the power of generics and macros. They are literally just a constant in the code. My experience with AI Later in the implementation when my data structure was mostly fixed I tried having an AI agent do some of the boring work of hooking things up, but it didn’t work. And by that I mean it was pretty awful. It didn’t understand my design, reinvented the wheel several times, took shortcuts that would work for exactly this one card I asked about and just created wrong behaviour. Maybe this was a me problem, because I provided bad context, but I think I will stick writing code by hand for a while longer....

I just shipped version 5.1.1, ending a very productive day of work! I added several new mods, backend tool improvements, and config changes.
I made some improvements to STManager, with a new command and some fixes. I also made some small modlist changes and updates, and released version 5.2.0

Grail-Tracker App (AI Clothing App)

Physics, because I thought Bump.lua would do the job well, but discovered (too late to switch for something like love.physics ) that it doesn’t work well with moving objects (basically a lot of my game), so it still has some physics quirks, although I did my best to fix a lot of them. Making my game pretty (I’m a dev, not an artist) Voicelines (like finding them on my phone to transfer to the project or changing their volume because they were too low. Also, they’re kind of bad quality Drowned-Fish Initiative uses cheap speakers).

And bump.lua’s bounce, which I had to replace with “self.velY = -self.velY”, and for some reason automatically ensured energy loss (realistic physics) even though I didn’t program it. And I’ll keep it this way because it’s good, realistic and, most important, fun. Bye!
Hey guys! On these days, I made sector 3 along with its two first levels. I also started making this terminal-style pause menu where you can adjust the audio channels. Finally, I enhanced the song playing (now it has better support to multiple tracks). Struggles: making a UI that is both functional and not completely awful simply with Love (pun intended). TODO: Put a volume changer (probably not a slider, more simple, like arrow keys) and a button to go back to hub.
Hello guys! Today, I’ve made Sector 3 Level 3 (the background level). I’ve also done this pause menu. It even saves the volume and the muted state in a settings.json file. TODO: More levels, maybe a few brand new props and probably my first sound effects.
Hello guys! Today, I’ve basically done those lasers and s3l4 (the level on the pic). Struggled with: alternating laser patterns based on lasers that started disabled. It was a single line of code (if isDisabled then return instance end) but lots of headaches and anger and unexpected behaviour. Also, it was kind of hard to figure out how to make these dynamic beans work out. Ended up basically taking advantage of table references (parent laser emitters coordinates) and “if isDisabled then return end” code guards.
Hello guys! Yesterday, I made s3l5. I’ve also made s3l4 a bit easier. Also, I’ve made the laser seem a bit thicker and way more cool. Finally, I’ve done some bash scripts: bundle.sh = Bundles the game modules, assets, maps, libraries, main.lua (entry point) and conf.lua (Love2D configurations) into a .love file windows-package.sh = Merges the .love file with Love2D standalone .exe, puts it into a folder with Love2D dlls, game license and readme linux-x86_64-package.sh = Unpacks Love2D AppImage, changes variables and filenames, merges Love2D bin with the .love file, handles both Love2D and game license and game readme and packs it back into an AppImage using AppImageTool
Hello guys! In the last days, I added new assets, such as songs and backgrounds (one for each sector). I also finally added SFX! Then, I re-included and re-formulated death by crush (struggled with it, ended up having to use subtick system for it to work correctly). Finally, I did a logo/icon for the game.
Hello guys! In those days, I’ve been making those spinning platforms, and also S4L1 (this level). It’s probably not 100% finished, considering its still not troll. Struggle: Physics (Bump.lua really hates moving and rotating props) and figuring out how to actually make it rotate. Also, I’m struggling with ideas for the level.
Hello guys! On the last days, I’ve been making this level (S4L2). The single thing that was a thorn at my side was the rotating moving platform at right. The individual tiles would incorrectly spin around rotation center because they wouldn’t keep a constant radius from center, causing a mess. The solution was to force the tiles to keep a constant radius from rotation center. Also, level design is being a real struggle for me: Lack of inspiration for cool, unique and with funny trolling. I’m open for suggestions!
Hello guys! Oh these days, I worked on these amazing particle systems. Also, did you notice a small delay between dying or touching a goal/sector gate and respawning or loading the new level? That’s the brand new freeze player option. The player becomes invisible, immortal and immoveable for a small amount of time (500ms to be more specific) to make it feel more smooth. At first, it caused me a simple yet huge headache involving voicelines that play right at the start of levels entered by a sector gate. Turns out it was that the sector gates kept detecting collision with frozen player (and consequently refiring logic) and bugging it all. Shout out to Claude for finding the bug root for me!
Hello guys! In the last days, I’ve done these translucid tiles. They pulsate using sine waves, and gets brighter if player is close (had to learn easing functions just to make it smoother!). Not too much struggles (fortunately), except by the fact I first tried to use bump.lua collision checking (for some forbidden reason didn’t work), then went to euclidian distance formula (linear) and finally used an easing formula (as smooth as butter on hot knife). That’s it! (Also, some tiny patches that are probably smaller than this sentence so are not worth being mentioned.)
Hello guys! On the last days, I’ve been doing sector 4 level 3 (the one at the picture) and 4! I struggled with gravity effects (spoiler: those levels mess up with gravity and Y-axis acceleration), and this was not that easy. Ended up having to do a trigger that doesn’t get deleted as soon as it gets trigged, so it can smoothly slow down player until velY gets to 0. Also, changed jump system in order to be able of jumping from the ceiling. TODO: S4L5 (maybe horizontal gravity?) and S5 (probably the last sector, and the hardest to code, as I want it to break the 4th wall and mess up with controls and UI). Bye!
Hello, guys! Development Yesterday, I’ve done this level (S4L5). It’s officially the last level for Sector 4. The X thing rotates clockwise, then there are the traps I won’t tell (go play it by yourself to discover!) Struggles I really struggled with physics (the player often noclips through the walls or the spinning X thing), and decided it’ll be a feature/something explained in-game (the sector already messes with physics, such as gravity inversion, so it can be treated as a “colateral effect”). I added a death condition, which is being squished at axis X (didn’t solve, but now it’s there). Sector 5 You guys can be sure Sector 5 will be the silliest one. I plan to get very creative at this one, such as messing with controls, breaking the 4th wall, etc. Note Just discovered those awesome emojis, so I’ll definitively start using them. Also, just decided to use Markdown features simply because I can.
Hello guys! What I’ve done (No, I’ll not face myself) Sector 5 levels 1 and 2, and the beginning of brainstorming for level 3. Level 1 messes up with controls. Level 2 takes it further and also messes with gravity. Level 3 is… I dunno, have to think (creative block is being a huge roadblock for this game). Struggles Creative block for levels (already said it) Being lazy (mostly because the creative block makes my brain want to avoid this project) Lack of free time (It’s better now, but was kind of an issue for me) TODO More levels (at least Level 3 to 5, but I thought of doing more) Maybe improving UX/UI (NOT A PROMISE) More voicelines (absolutely needed)
Hello guys! Progress I’ve done this silly cursor (with a frowned face!) that can follow a target! It has two options: Fixed time to reach target (with variable speed) and fixed speed (with variable time to reach target). It has a trigger collision (equals no collision with player) by default, but can be solid. It uses mostly of moveable props updating logic. Struggles Thinking about edge cases (like time being on 0 and division by 0 happening or cursor already being at target) and how to implement my ideas (like a variable speed based on time). This silly bug where cursor can crush you (even when having a trigger collision). Probably letting it as a troll feature. Wanted to draw cursor over everything else (solved it by adding a “layer” property at props, where cursor is at layer 999 while tiles are at -999 and default is 0. Also, player is still rendering at cursor front, but probably ignoring this, as it’s not an issue.) TODO Finishing the level (S5L3) and doing lots of troll shenanigans.
Hello guys! New levels Finished Sector 5 Level 3 (S5L3) and did S5L4. Features of S5L4 Fake integer overflow at the level deaths counter, which explains the “broken” level Falling tiles (Can go up, down and custom directions, either moving at a fixed speed or suffering from a “gravity”) Struggles Level design: Solved by testing whatever came to my mind and seemed fun, even for a slight bit. Figuring out how to make the falling tiles without being a total pain: Solved by some default values, syntatic sugar and abstractions (variables with isUp = true are assumed to go only up, else and not EndX and EndY are assumed to go only down). Bye!
Hello guys! Finally shipping this thing! Made S5L5 and S5L6 (yeah, this one has 6 levels, although level 6 is just like an “ending”) and added new voicelines. Goodbye! See you guys again in my new projects! (check out Hello-Raylib, my current one, or Boilerplater, my Vscode extension)
Hello! Struggles at shipping My game was rejected for using an old OpenGL version, but forcing it to use a newer OpenGL by default isn’t something I can easily change without forking Love2D (simply not doable for me). Also, it did work as intended on a variety of devices (old, new, Windows, Linux). And searching a bit, apparently Love2D automatically try using OpenGL 3.0 if it’s available on the device. So, if you’re a shipwright, please take this in consideration. Note -> Also, I want to say that during this midtime I changed my Chromebook setup from ChromeOS Crostini (Debian container) to bare metal Linux (I use Arch btw)
Ships:
Hello guys! Drowned-Fish A simple 2D troll game made with Love2D. The name is a thing as impossible as you beating this game. It has 26 levels, uncountable traps and lots and lots of teasing voicelines meant specifically to annoy you. Controls WASD - Move P - Pause/unpause Struggles (Only the main ones) Creative block at level design (especially for the last sectors). Physics, because I thought Bump.lua would do the job well, but discovered (too late to switch for something like love.physics ) that it doesn’t work well with moving objects (basically a lot of my game), so it still has some physics quirks, although I did my best to fix a lot of them. Making my game pretty (I’m a dev, not an artist) Voicelines (like finding them on my phone to transfer to the project or changing their volume because they were too low. Also, they’re kind of bad quality Drowned-Fish Initiative uses cheap speakers). UI, because Love2D, although being awesome, doesn’t have helpers for UI, so all UI logic had to be hand written Implementing specific props, such as lasers, moveable props, spinning platforms and boosters I’m proud of… Having a whole game to call mine Overcoming all topics mentioned in Struggles Learning: Game dev, a new language (Lua), a framework (Love2D) and some unexpected things (like discovering Tiled existence or how AppImage works under the hood) Download You can download it at the GitHub releases page . It’s officially supported for Windows and Linux at the x86_64 architecture. If your system isn’t supported, you can: Download the universal .love build, along with a Love2D runtime (they’re available at the official Love2D page ) and open the build with Love2D Skip this project and rate another project instead (don’t rate it if you can’t play it first, please)...

I had to learn a bit about rhythm and BPM actually because of this project, and also scoured upon Godot docs about getting playback positions and whatnot, which made me realize that Godot’s way of timing music is actually very inaccurate and you need to put a lot of safeguards to make sure that you’re not getting a late/older version of your playback position. That it’s up to speed as much as possible. There was also a lot of decision-making that I had to do. I could’ve chosen to add more content to this game (I mean imagine the possibilities) but I’ve basically answered my question of what a game would be like if the controls weren’t just WASD/arrow keys, and I’ve basically learned what I sought out to learn (MIDI input mapping and rhythm game mechanics) with this project. More content would just be adding onto the principles I’ve learned rather than learning more, which made me realize that it’s probably better to move on and experiment with another project!

#DEVLOG1 welcome to the world of horsepower. I have thought of designing the webOS on the theme cars and this is the start page made hope you like it.
#DEVLOG2 here i tried to create a simple yet hyper realistic home page in neon accents. Here the functions such as settings and monitor are not openable yet and also i have planned to change the cursor to a more modern circle and also planned to add a calendar option in it.
#DEVLOGG3 this time i have tried to make the homepage of OS as a dashboard of a modern car infotainment screen. Now all the functions are openable closable and draggable. I have also changed the cursor and added the calendar option in it. hope it works well with others.
#devlog4 this time i tried to simplify the code and also added a game and a console supporting basic command
#DEVLOG5 this time i tried to fix some issues like like curve of the circling lines and the ignition button on homepage. I went through the whole code and edited it where ever i thought it was unnecessary or wrong. Hope you like this this time
#DEVLOG6 this time i tried to re write the code again and i hope it functions well.
#devlog7 totally redesigned the project by taking inspiration my my growing interest in aviation Hope you like it
This is a new start!!!!!! I have reformulated the entire philosophy of the website and after much research i am remaking it from scratch This design format is called neumorphism and is really popular nowadays because of its sleek minimalistic nature. i have incorporated it into my project……….
DONEE!!!! NeuOSbut in th ened it worked out V1.0 is good to go i added a working notes app which can store multiple notes and also a basic paint app. it got really messy
Added 2 new apps that is weather and browser someone told me it looked kind of empty so i added 2 more apps and i think i will add a theme picker too
made 3 themes. I genuinely think these look super cool ngl
working on new features -added a loading screen and a basic taskbar that just shows what tab is open for now. going to work on the taskbar further
fixed the paint app bugs. I got some complaints about the buttons not working int he paint app in the reviews so it was a really silly logical error. fixed it now you can change color size and clear it all well!!!

Basic Electron setup for the app, learning how it works. This is my first time using Electron for any project, so this will be fun.
The program can now search for albums, preview information, and load it in a new file for further use. The UI looks like a mess for now, so the next step is to fix the layout and interface. This is a great experience, learning to use the MusicBrainz API and learn how Electron works, and I’m glad to be working on this project.
UI for the homepage is coming together well, but I might update it at the end of the project. For now, there’s a theme and it looks good, so that’s good enough. I also added a Search by Release ID feature, since the MusicBrainz API search isn’t that great and oftentimes doesn’t suggest the album that I want, so now I can just paste a release ID to get the album immediately. Next steps are building the functionality for the rating pages and figuring out how to store the user-inputted page data.
I’ve made the process to generate album pages. It’s not hooked up to a script yet, so there’s no functionality, but the Search->Page Generation pipeline works perfectly.

Made the UI for the album pages (this is temporary, I plan to work on this a lot more later). I also added the ability to edit the album data. User input for the songs is not implemented yet, so this is all hardcoded. I spent a while trying to use ColorThief to automatically sample a background color for the album cover, but there were some issues with the package and I couldn’t get it to work, so I just hardcoded this color for now. I plan to get ColorThief (or a similar package) working soon, since the accent color is pretty important to the look of the app. My next steps are to implement song input (rating & comments) and improve the UI for this page, as well as the home page.
For the past few sessions, I’ve just been working on a dynamic theme for the album page. It automatically samples a dominant and secondary color from the album cover, and then: Creates a gradient for the banner, with both colors darkened (or lightened if needed) until it’s within a certain luminosity threshhold Darkens the primary color to create the background color Raises luminosity of the secondary color to color the tracklist numbers and “Tracklist” title.

I added so much this time I forgot everything I did, so this is just what I remember. Made the HTML files generate with a parallel JSON file, which I’ll use for data importing/exporting Added custom colors.

Returning to the Album Rater Album Rater is now fully saved using LocalStorage. I plan to add exports page exports very soon.
