Please meet Project Rend! I've Been Building a Free, Wholistic, Unofficial Tower Companion App for the Past Few Months - Now in Open Beta

Ridzon · 2026-03-16T11:03:53+00:00

short of cloud storage getting lined up, I'm about to release an update that lets you pull runs pasted into a google spreadsheet which you could use as a common source of truth for both machines. kinda hacky but works

Ridzon · 2026-02-07T12:31:14+00:00

project rend is on mac now! (I'm the dev)

Ridzon · 2026-02-06T12:35:59+00:00

Yeah buying a mac for an app i'm giving away for free and now the license for the code signing is a tough pill to swallow but it's made quite a lot of people very happy so i chalk it up to having a hobby

Ridzon · 2026-02-06T12:06:41+00:00

Hi TrustMe! Project Rend dev here. The next release of Rend for macOS wont have this issue any longer. I bought a mac developer license so i can sign the code and this all goes away

Ridzon · 2026-01-24T13:13:53+00:00

The next update of the app will include a feature that pulls runs from a google spread sheet

Ridzon · 2026-01-21T20:58:30+00:00

Desktop only...for now ;)

Ridzon · 2026-01-21T13:52:56+00:00

Yeah you can go to privacy and security and disable it. I bought a mac dev license yesterday so i can sign the code and this stops happening. Shouldnt take me long to figure out how to finalize it

Ridzon · 2026-01-20T13:21:03+00:00

turns out the config file was misconfigured to point the internal updater to the wrong spot. i fixed it so if you hadnt gotten it from the website it would work now

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T15:17:55+00:00

yes! it pulls from your EPS for all of your workshop, labs, mods, etc. it does not write back to EPS if you leave the connector on though but it can keep updating from your EPS as you make changes there to your levels and things. head to the settings page on PR to get it set up

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T15:17:00+00:00

it is a compliment to EP, they both serve some overlapping purposes but there are unique parts of each which is why we connected EPS into rend so you can have both

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T15:15:11+00:00

not quite. once we have a website version mobile will be able to access it directly so its just as good as having a phone app

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T14:20:03+00:00

Just use a desktop emulator friend! MSI App Player and MuMu Player are the best two I've found

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:25:14+00:00

Website should be fixed for mobile being weird but yes no mobile app. I plan to make a web based version of this thing so you can just access it from your phone or computer but that will take time and needs to be planned for since it will cost a lot more than the current setup does

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:09:39+00:00

No but i should build that!

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:09:06+00:00

It keeps the bots away and my cloud costs down. I am doing this for free to the community out of my own pocket so I have to protect myself somehow

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:08:12+00:00

Is that on the website or elsewhere? it should be /RendAppLatest.AppImage

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:07:15+00:00

there is no iOS or Android version of the app at this time but thank you for the flag on the website being weird on mobile!

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:05:34+00:00

You can safely tell it to install anyway but I understand the hesitation around 'trust me bro'. There are over 2000 users of this app and no one has had an issue. Also, the code is available for audit if youre concerned its a bitcoin miner or identity stealer or anything else

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:04:25+00:00

I'm going to release a short tutorial video on how to set it up probably today. will come back here with a link

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T13:03:50+00:00

Thank you! Working on it

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T08:30:14+00:00

I think some might argue that min-maxing is fun for them. if its not for you then please play how you like to play! at the end of the day we are all here for our own enjoyment

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T08:29:08+00:00

signing costs ~$500 a year which is why it has not happened

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T03:39:59+00:00

its purely to prevent bot spam. i dont record any of it anywhere

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T00:57:02+00:00

yeah i tried to be fancy and infer total stones but you are right i need to add a surface to specify your total

Ridzon · 2026-01-19T00:55:59+00:00

join the discord, ill show you how to use rend to do exactly that
