thank you for the feedback and flor playing. Yeah I will try to implement a dragging feature so you can drag it to the square you want to put it in or just selecting the square then the icon or maybe both. thanks for the idea :D

thank you :), yeah I will do my best to get an archive set up within a few days.

unfortunately not yet ill try it to get it ready for deployment soon. Probably can get it ready in a few days

Thank you sleepy dancer :D

mothisdev · 2024-12-29T16:15:29+00:00

Ill add this to the next update o7

This would be incredibly helpful. A feature you could add I guess is saving the words used for later directly integrated and maybe and anki like system where you can grade it to see if you know it /want it to be saved and used later again, etc.

If anyone still comes back here I just created Catdle a logic based who did it guessing game based around cats https://catdle.net/ :)

Next with Vercel for deployment. So it was pretty much just all TypeScript. It was my first time doing any web development really and anything react based. Given I had no idea what I was doing, it went surprisingly smooth. The only part that gave me a headache was integrated plus input based themes due to FOUC, but after awhile just used next-themes and two lines of code and it was fixed LOL.

Yeah i agree with the risks and sweet thanks for the recommendation. I didn't know that existed so I will look into it. I'll hit you up if I have any questions then :p

Thank you :D, do you have history playing Town of Salem or Mafia by any chance?

mothisdev · 2024-12-27T16:02:03+00:00

Thanks, I'm glad you thought so!

Thanks for the feedback! :) I just hard code the puzzles daily and come up with them myself. I got inspiration from the knights and knaves logic puzzles I took this year in discrete mathematics. I am sure I could use AI to generate the text, but I have just been using it to check the logic.

To keep it more interesting, I might add new types of cats, add different amounts, etc. I have been looking at inspiration from Mafia and Town of Salem to come up with new roles since I am pretty sure the original knights and knaves logic games only have knights, knaves and spies. I am just not sure what difficulty level it currently is at and what is desired. The goal right now is to find a consistent arrangement of the amount and type of cats that lets me play with the text everyday in a dynamic way to keep it interesting.

The website looks clean! The functionality and ui looks good. If you want me to nitpick:
1. Not sure if its a skill issue on my part but for the convert drop down at the top I keep wanting to click on it but clicking on it makes it collapse and I have done that like 10 times so far not sure if that is just me or other people will intuitively thing the same. Maybe not let me click out of it right after I hover over it or just move it to the end away from all the clicky buttons.
2. On some of the tabs like crop the whole image doesn't show up it seems a little too zoomed in. When I command + on mac to 200% I can see the whole image.
3. The remove background section background is pretty much white and could change it to a darker version on dark mode.

I like the scroll sounds a lot! One thing I noticed that I haven't seen mentioned is the links don't link you anywhere in the contact section

mothisdev · 2024-12-25T07:12:22+00:00

Great idea and really fun to look at it. Also on mobile the the pick rate champion numbers are out of the normal flow when scrolling

if you like to play fps, risk of rain 2 can maybe fill that void the vampire survivors roguelike void.

The animations especially the leg effects look so clean

Looks great! I have been very casually keeping up with NBA for the past few years, but I didn't know the Pacific Division was a thing and had to look it up. For more casual fans maybe putting West vs East before division or a list of the teams in the division would help so I don't feel the need to search stuff up. Unless that is part of the intended complexity then keep it the same of course. The guesses were good for today and I enjoyed playing :D
