Just created a HUGE (40+) list of games like Animal Crossing 🤯
Some standouts are:
- Disney Dreamlight Valley
- Hokko Life
- Cozy Grove
- Palia
What am I missing from the list? 🤔

Here's my super professional screenshot. 😂
Update: Added dynamic deals to each game page!
website: recommendedplay.com/
1) Checks if GreenManGaming has a deal
2) Falls back to Amazon if not
Was looking forward to adding this!

What a great bundle 🤯
If I didn't already own a bunch of these, I'd pick it up for sure.
Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate alone is *chef's kiss*

Coding with Ruby on Rails in VS Code is such a mess 😵
All these extensions (Solargraph, etc) and it still breaks most of the time.
ALSO, why didn't anyone tell me that RubyMine has gone free for non-commercial use? 🤔🤔
I think it's time to give it a serious go.

What's a good heroic scale RTS that isn't Warcraft 1/2/3?
Shadow of Horned Rat is great but I ain't gonna play it for design inspo 😂
Age of Empires and Age of Mythology are a bit too grand
And when you get into Total War that's a different genre entirely
I want to control like 9 guys at once

Hire real designers
Automated tools for logo generation are still impressively bad—particularly when you have specific instructions.

Schema best practices?
I've been updating/adding my Author schema with the following:
- name
- alternateName
- jobTitle
- image
- url
- sameAs [Collection]
- knowsAbout
- description
I wonder if I'm missing something important 🤔

I can't wait for more info on this (and the prices $$$)
Thoughts?
