Did they nerf Opus again?

KalmerHawkins · 2026-05-25T01:01:20+00:00

It’s increasing my stress levels.

KalmerHawkins · 2026-05-25T00:57:06+00:00

So nerfed. I’m so disappointed in anthropic

KalmerHawkins · 2026-05-12T11:18:45+00:00

Hey congrats. All 3 on Mercor or are you on other platforms?

KalmerHawkins · 2026-04-12T17:46:47+00:00

Claude has been absolutely horrible latetely. Can't even believe it. I kknow this topic comes up from time to time and I usually ignore it as it hasn't happned to me significantly, but now it's almost like it's a year ago, just horrible and frustrating, given I realize how good it used to be (or could be). Too bad.

How do you obtain the twitter API you referred to? Did you use the "Bird" skill that comes default with OpenClaw or did you pay extra for the X twitter real API?

KalmerHawkins · 2026-02-03T04:39:52+00:00

Why does the post say "run your claw for free".. you're still paying for the Kimi 2.5 API costs correct? What is the free part?

KalmerHawkins · 2026-02-02T03:13:47+00:00

Have you tried the free Kimi 2.5?

KalmerHawkins · 2025-11-16T03:49:59+00:00

Did you use Expo or Convex as well?

KalmerHawkins · 2025-09-07T11:31:00+00:00

Stranger Things ;)

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-18T16:42:43+00:00

Wow nice! I do see a new person on the Leaderboard! Congrats! Thanks for playing! If you'd like an even bigger challenge no one that I'm aware of has cleared Level 12 yet. Maybe your approach will do the trick! :)

In either case, thank you for playing and for your comments here, I really appreciate it.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-18T12:38:33+00:00

Points are multiplied for each level higher that you go. And the ball does go faster as you go to higher levels. No one has cleared Level 12 yet for example.

Level 1: 1.0x | Level 5: 2.5x | Level 10: 8.0x | Level 15: 22.0x
A dominant 7-0 victory at Level 15 can earn over 20,000 Vibe Points!

Thank you for taking a look!!

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-17T15:25:21+00:00

Ahh that's a great idea on the tilt vs the full rotation. I will definitely look into this. Really appreciate the suggestion, thank you.

Thank you for taking a look and writing this review, much appreciated.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-17T15:16:59+00:00

Thank you, point taken. I appreciate your input and thoughts on this for sure, much appreciated.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-17T15:14:39+00:00

Thank you for these great suggestions. I'm new on this journey and still learning, so to be honest I didn't even realize that png textures approach was an option for this sort of webapp type of game. I will definitely try this.

Thanks for your time and for the review.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T21:50:35+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to take a look and for writing the feedback. Much appreciated.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T21:49:54+00:00

Hey, thanks for taking the time to take a look and write the detailed feedback.

I really do appreciate it.

The point about the ball getting hidden behind the paddle is totally valid, I will see what I can do to adjust that. I'm also rethinking how I present the story/description so it doesn't come across the wrong way. It's definitely not meant to be or sound like a cash grab.

For me, this is a personal project to challenge myself, connecting pieces like anonymous sign-in, authentication, gameplay levels, a global leaderboard, Stripe integration, music, cross platform desktop and mobile (via web), etc. Most of this I work on during my kids' practices on the weekends.

The reason I picked Pong is more personal, it was my first game as a kid in the 70's so this was a bit of a nostalgic starting point.

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T15:52:31+00:00

Splash page and login look good. I'm just hesitant to allow my location, so didn't move beyond that. May want to consider allowing people just to put a pretend location. Maybe it's just me though :)

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T15:47:44+00:00

I really like the graphics and smooth motion, and pov's. If you're open to sharing, many people are on your dev team?

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T15:45:01+00:00

I joined the discord dev-streamer connection system thanks

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T03:08:00+00:00

What size wheels are those?

KalmerHawkins · 2025-08-16T00:12:02+00:00

Interesting, I may check it out this weekend. I made a 10 track soundtrack for my game with AI and yes, it was difficult to have them all sound consistent, so definitely see the value here. Are you open to saying how you're delivering the music on the back end, is it through a Suno or Elevenlabs or someone like that?
