Lol, it gets fast pretty quickly indeed. Still, It was quite fun working with the space limitations and characters.

Inspired by @freedomflotilla.bsky.social , I've done some research on current conflict zones around the world, and it's quite staggering. Air Fiesta has been cancelled in many places.

Parrots from Telegraph Hill and Pigeons from Paris

Still having a blast with airfiesta.fm, grabbed the flock algo from @jtr.dev and tweaked it to make custom birds using simple shapes. Added Parrots from Telegraph Hill in SF and Pigeons from Paris. This inspired to make a whole game based on flocks, they’re super cool.

Airtales: When the Balloon Landed - Diego Dotta Airtales was never meant to last forever. I even had a line on the roadmap asking when and where the balloon would land. Still, it drifted across Google Earth like a stubborn daydream, a collective ri...

I spent about 50 days building it, another 50 days watching it float. In that time, 8k people climbed aboard. At one point 167 players were trying to steer it at the same time. Along the way 234 local radios played and the balloon wandered across thousands of miles. diego.horse/airtales-whe...

Neuralese: The Most Spoken Language You’ll Never Speak - Diego Dotta Somewhere between thinking and speaking, there’s a strange place where meaning starts to solidify. It’s not quite a word yet. More like a haze of associations. A mental sketch your brain tries to tran...

The Vibe Life: Building Smart Keys for Mac - Diego Dotta I didn’t realize I was about to enter the β€œvibe” industry when I started building Smart Keys. All I really wanted was a way to sound fluent in languages without doing the hard work. Let’s be real: lea...

Built an app to avoid learning languages. Ended up building two platforms, rewriting everything twice, and somehow still feeling productive. Smart Keys for Mac is here, bugs and all.

Smart Keys store conversion rate is over 50%, while the best apps barely scrape 7%. So either I’m a wizard or this is a BS metric. diego.horse/no-bs-friday... #IndieDev #BuildingInPublic
