Tauri is pretty cool. It let me make a desktop app out of my web-based notes editor without the Electron bloat. The notes editor is cool because it integrates with my whole aCloud ecosystem with wiki-style links to contacts, tasks, and ideas.

TUI for tinycrawl. It talks to the cloud version to get map packs, check the leaderboard, and manage the AI GM’s judgment calls.

I gave Tinycrawl a hall of fame, creature pictures, and an expanded “expedition” mode with a map. If you want the super-linear 13-room sprint mode, it’s still there, or you can opt for “expedition” for a longer game with up to 30 rooms and more light/loot drops.

Yesterday was “get the Outfitter 1 ready for a trip” day. Someone stole the breakaway cable, but it’s in pretty good shape.

Not sure I need tranquil lightning bugs glowing in the background of my terminal, but #rootshell comes with them if I want them. #libghostty -based and comes with a bunch of remote connectivity affordances #ghostty itself doesn’t have.

Added a simple image manager to the POSSE editor. I can add/edit captions, get a Markdown img snippet from a previous image upload, or remove images. I had imgup for this, but I prefer just having this integrated in the tool. #posse #smugmug

tinycrawl - a rogue-y crawler based on CairnThere's more stuff to do, but I got to a sort of MVP on tinycrawl. It's a text-based rogue-like where you just try to get to the 13th room of a dungeon. There are creatures, loot, and limited options. It's still pretty hard to win and there's still not a lot of room for skill.

Okay. I added a very simple account system (you get a passphrase on first load) and individual player history. I’ve got a few more things to do to it, and balance is a work in progress. Otherwise, feel free to do a few runs.

I made a Skill to generate dungeons for my little dungeon crawler. You give it a broad setting prompt, then answer questions about tone, difficulty, and GM temperament and get a game pack with custom descriptions, monsters, and loot you can upload and reuse.

I am, indeed, going to tape this up somewhere.
