I tried to become an Obsidian sicko one and a half years ago and set everything up. A couple months later, SyncThing stopped working on my phone and I have not yet found the motivation to fix it (and am now reluctant to use Obsidian because it's not syncing to my phone...).

3: pzprxs.vercel.app/p?isowatari/...

You've reminded me of Eressea, a game I haven't thought about in years. I looked it into it and it's still running (for almost 30 years now)!

A new yajilin-esque genre on pzprxs: pzprxs.vercel.app/p?retsurin/b...
The 6x6 ended up not using the genre's most interesting rule, so I made an 8x8 as well:

We finished what we set out to make and gosh it took a lot longer than i expected. I’ll be supporting the game for a long while but as a creative project, it’s complete. I can’t wait to share the remaining lost memories. πŸ™‚

I have news re: a different game first, stay tuned

Yeah, that error message is honestly not great. I've mentioned it to X_Sheep (maintainer of this fork) and it should get improved with the next update.
