I love collecting physical games. So I made something for it. Cibby is out now on the App Store. apps.apple.com/app/id6790582…

Anyone old enough to remember Minesweeper? Someone turned Minesweeper into a tiny fantasy kingdom builder and it may be one of the few mobile games I play. Every tile you uncover helps build and defend a little fantasy kingdom full of resources, treasure, goblins and sleeping dragons. Such a clever spin on a classic! Game: Keepsweeper Dev: @flarup

Shareware model still works in 2026

1000+ likes 🤯 I’m going to call that a very successful launch. Thank you so much for playing! If you enjoy it, then please leave a review on the App Store. I read all of them and they make a big difference.

You have been warned ⚠️

The Keepsweeper reviews are starting to come in 😂

Minesweeper, but it’s a real-time strategy game. Read the clues. Claim the land. Build your kingdom. Keepsweeper is out now on iOS. Free to try. apps.apple.com/app/id6814857…

So the @dinolordsgame team needs to resolve something really important. Please help.

I made it with just 1 hour left before the deadline! I’m really happy with my two Shipaton submissions. A huge thank you to all the good people at @RevenueCat for putting on this wonderful hackathon in what must be the craziest time to be a maker. These past few months have been inspiring. I’ve been making things on computers for most of my life, and I honestly can’t remember the last time I had this much fun doing it. In a strange way, it reminds me of the early days of the web. Back then, everything felt possible. Nobody really knew what the internet was going to become. There were no established rules, everyone was experimenting, and if you had a weird idea you could just sit down at your computer and try to make it. I feel some of that same energy right now. The distance between an idea and something real has become incredibly short. I keep finding myself disappearing down rabbit holes, learning things I didn’t know yesterday and staying up much too late because I want to see if I can get just one more thing working. Not because I have to. Because it’s fun. One of my submissions is Cibby, an app that is deeply personal to me. It’s the game collection app I’ve wanted to exist for years, and somehow this year I was finally able to make it. The other is a surprisingly fun little strategy game that I’ve been making together with my kids. I can’t wait to share more about that one soon. I don’t know where any of this is going. But right now, sitting in front of a computer with an idea feels a little bit magical again. Good luck to everyone who submitted. I’ve seen so many wonderful, weird and ambitious things come out of Shipaton. And spare a thought for the judges who now have the completely reasonable task of going through 28,000+ submissions 😅 Mostly though, I’m just grateful that people take the time to make things like Shipaton happen. To create an excuse for thousands of people to put everything else aside for a moment, chase an idea and make something that didn’t exist before. What a wonderful time to be making things.

Cibby 1.1 is out. We went to Japan and I completely forgot to tell anyone. Here’s a little look at the iPad UI. More room for all those game boxes. If you collect physical games, give it a try: apps.apple.com/app/id6790582…

Guys, I don’t think this one is going to make it into #shipaton

Been making a little pixel-art strategy game while traveling. Having a hard time putting it down. Anyone on iOS want to help test? Reply and I’ll send you a TestFlight link.

We went deep in the trenches

Made it out of Chiba.

Well shit. Typhoon incoming. Monday at TGS is cancelled. One last day tomorrow, then we’re getting out of Chiba before we get stuck here.
