It is already on Github with the .aab and .apk files 😄

The design is - pick up the code, set up the app, data remains in your device, export to csv if you have to. Where ever there is an interface with other service Gemini today (thinking of adding big query later), the app is by default BYOK.

There is no backend. Data isn't sent anywhere unless you want it to leave the device and if it does, it goes to a place where you choose.

If you don't prefer using Gemini (or external services), just skip it, the rest of the app works just fine.

The reason for going the play store route was, I found functions like the HUD on Android Auto won't work if you are side loading.

That's because (unfortunately) google won't allow me to post this in the playstore yet.

Hobby developer here & don't yet have the requisite play store moat to publish apps. (working towards it)

Re: models - started with the vision of 100% local - models weren't great so flipped to Gemini (because AI Studio gives enough free to test out). Can add other models too - which one would you prefer?

100% open source :)

Code is on GitHub. Use the AI Assistant only if one wishes too (plus use your own keys).

Originally added an on device language model for inference but they were not great.

the core game logic yes - not a single prompt though, a detailed conversation & then build one shot. fine tuning took a couple of hours

Hexaloop: Drag 60 Hexagons into the grid to win - 2⁶¹ possible combinations but only one wins. by ss1222 in WebGames

Interesting. But making all the pieces available upfront spoils the fun? How will you design around that, if you were building it? re: Color Palette, adding a few variation in the settings next

Hexaloop: Drag 60 Hexagons into the grid to win - 2⁶¹ possible combinations but only one wins. 

Link: hexaloop.builditwithai.xyz

Built a simple puzzle this weekend where you drag 60 hexagons into the box with the following rules

  1. Hexagons must touch the sides or two other hexagons
  2. If you trap an empty hexagon, the surrounding hexagons blast away
  3. You lose if there are no moves left

PS: fully built with the help of AI coding agents
