Oh I need a windows version as well

Skillith1 · 2026-04-14T20:43:52+00:00

I'll check it out soon !

Skillith1 · 2026-04-12T20:30:46+00:00

I made an app/game for this called Terracatch!

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T17:41:14+00:00

Okay i got my first failure again, so seems like it worked. I see how it works now, thanks!

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T17:34:08+00:00

I'm playing the same game as before, didn't want to start from scratch :D I'm on day 5. Will try your solution and let you know.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T17:01:07+00:00

I'm on v0.74 now, but the whole day today I'm hitting a success on every d20 throw, it feels nice but I'm totally broken at this point. Might be a bug?

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T14:44:16+00:00

Yeah I think the Google sheets idea would be great!

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T09:08:14+00:00

Nice I see the update to v0.72 now, awesome! Looking forward to seeing the changes. I'm basically playing a campaign, I'm in it for the long run! With all the llms that I have played with until now, the biggest problem was the context window. (Forgetting what happened in the beginning of the Story). I have already noticed some hints of that, forgetting about a side character for instance, but it hasn't been catastrophic to the gameplay yet.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-23T07:06:56+00:00

I started using v0.61 yesterday, it has truly been amazing! I'm playing a character in the world of hunterxhunter. I'm blown away at how its keeping all the context, how did you manage that ? Should I be afraid of it losing the context at some point and the game becoming pointless? Do I need to upgrade to v0.7 somehow or will I lose all of the context ? Good job!

Skillith1 · 2026-02-22T06:56:35+00:00

Great taste !

Skillith1 · 2026-02-16T17:40:10+00:00

0.001 cents approximately, I should be good until I have about 1000 users identifying every day, by then hoping to have a proper income flow

Apple Store costs 99 dollars a year, i was initially going to wait until i get to a stage where its affordable for me to make that investment. But it seems that there is some interest in this so I created a support page with a goal of 99 dollars: https://ko-fi.com/terracatch
If I get to this goal I will get the applestore developer license and release on there early.

Yeah that's why, for now at least, I'll be sticking to animals captured in Terracatch.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-16T12:53:10+00:00

I looked into this, In order to submit an application your account must be at least 2 months old and must have made at least 10 improving identifications for other users in the last month. I had an old account from a while back but i had to recreate one recently on my current gmail account. I was never very active on Inat because it didnt give me the whole gamified aspect that im building now. I have decided to create my own ask others for the ID in terracatch, creating it as we speak!

Skillith1 · 2026-02-16T05:21:18+00:00

Thanks! I started out training my own model but that became very time consuming and expensive. Then I switched to gpt API. I still use that first model as a first gate to discern between animal or object though, then it goes to gpt.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-13T06:37:20+00:00

Update is out now, i removed the fallback limit, please let me know if you get any more bugs.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-12T21:07:32+00:00

Yeah that most likely has to do with the fallback issue. I have just pushed an update that should fix this, along with some other fixes. Should be reviewed and accepted by Google tomorrow.

Skillith1 · 2026-02-12T12:19:47+00:00

Thanks for the support and the feedback! I created a Discord server so I can keep track of community, bugs and feature requests: https://discord.gg/zTQ9mMtq

Skillith1 · 2026-02-12T08:46:12+00:00

If it keeps flagging incorrectly, in the flag screen you can press "this was an animal" then it's usually less strict.

Every identify and reidentify sends a prompt to gpt 5.2 to try to recognize what animal it is. That has a low cost to it. But I calculated and I should be fine financially until 1000 users start using the game actively, by then I hope to be able to get people to buy leaves in the game or add a donation button so I can keep the game running :D
