tinygenerals.com just got a bigger update; mostly quality of life and economy. At the moment it's too easy but getting there. And AI can be even a bit competitive.

I wanted to try something new and I did: tinygenerals.com. It’s not as barebones as it might look but still an early release. If you want to give it a go - I’d be happy for feedback. New version will land later this week

I’ve just seen hell - the AI slop on YouTube is bad but there’s worse: automatic dubbing in your native language. I did not ask for it

A problem with testing a turn based 2+ player game is that you need to have 2+ players. So I created my first bot. It's stupid but at least it knows how to end its turn

For 20+ years I wanted to make a turn-based strategy game and I finally made it. Well, it's far from finished but the skeleton works. And it's multiplayer. I will be looking for some testing - if you like games like Panzer General and want to test what I cook - raise your hand

After years we spent developing different frameworks, best practices and methodologies in product management, discovery, engineering focused on building the right thing, the adoption of AI shows the only metrics everyone cares about is lines of code and count of features

I tried #fm26. A series which I play since Championship Manager 93 on the Amiga, despite I have not seen any progress in the series since 2014. The only good thing about fm26 is the thing least important: the 3d view. Rest of it: UI, navigation flows - fits to Halloween. It’s walking dead

I guess Satya "Hit Refresh" and his settings went to default-CEO. Since 2014 MS was turning around and the "learn-it-all" mindset was inspiring. Innovation here seems to be: apply Azure/Office rulebook to gaming.

Satya Nadella compares game publishing business to Microsoft Office, says 'the best way to innovate is to have good margins'
Maybe you can make more sense of Satya Nadella's comments on gaming than I can.

80% of features are done in 20% of the time before the release. This is step towards layout views but I think I will need to step up the game on design soon.
0.19.8 brings more colors to the page - now loading main image of the articles. The behavior can be controlled by logged in user.

I guess it's time to take postreads infrastructure more seriously. Since yesterday I noticed a massive spike of bot traffic which basically kills the vps.

Before/after turning on the countermeasures.

If I were honest with myself and amount of changes that required - it should have been the major release. Couple of more changes and 0.2 will be out
0.19.7 is up. the most major minor release ever.
* Added option to "mute" feeds - if you think some feeds publish too often too much - just turn them off
* Fixed the "Similar to" matching - it didn't work since long time.
* Further changed Reader app to be more usable

My brain never stops amusing me. I have rather eclectic taste in music and it fluctuates over the year: autumn till early spring I listen mostly to all variants of metal, rock and occasional hardstyle but as it gets warmer I go to trip, hip hop, dub, dancehall and back to metal again

I'm soon to put the final touches on @postreads.co 0.2. Despite low number it is an important milestone for me and the project. But I got to admit - it really gets difficult. The project is already quite complex and given that I learn as I go, it feels like big Jenga

Playing around with Phaser.js and loading tiles with JSON rulesets
September 22, 2025 at 9:31 PM
Not an engine yet, mostly writing documentation and reading tutorials but needed something to see. Tiles with JSON configuration and per-tile animation. Not sure if I will ever make anything out of it, but is fun.

15 years ago, when still a Frontend dev I hated coding emails. 15 years later I'd hope with AI it's far better now. Nope - same sh*t but now with added "f... knows what's going on in the code"

A wolf of the Steppes that had lost its way and strayed into the towns and the life of the herd, a more striking image could not be found for his shy loneliness, his savagery, his restlessness, his homesickness, his homelessness
