After that it was quite fun and I enjoyed the options you gave for things like brush size, metallics, gradients, etc. Nice!
Hey all, I have been working on a suite of tools to help me in my day to day activities as an engineering manager at a small startup.I'm looking for 5-10 folks who can help me test and improve things. If you have a busy calendar, more reports than you feel like you can manage, and if your teams work in Github and JIRA, I'm confident you will find what I'm building useful to you.You can read a...
As a people manager, I've found myself using a plethora of "tools" to help me keep notes and track informal progress towards goals for the reports I work with.My needs evolved to a point where I'm using VSCode for its file structure and ability to quickly find things via global search.I'm in the process of building something custom for myself and wondering if there are other people managers out...

Hey HN,I decided to create this extension after realizing it was a feature that I wanted inside of slack.A number of times over the past few weeks I've caught myself wishing I had spent a minute more thinking about the other person on the other side of the slack message I was hastily firing off.Or wondering what was taking someone so long to get back to me, only to hear later that afternoon...
Had a play through and found it pretty addictive; similar to other clickminer/grind style games I've liked in the past.
I found the action swap mechanic a little odd at first but ultimately a nice change of pace from the more typical "unlock/pay to play" style progression of actions.
I do agree with some other posters that there is a good deal of unnecessary tapping (choosing to return/continue, etc) but I think it would take a little ingenuity about how to keep the core gameplay as is and reduce those taps.
The ads did make me sad and really interrupted the flow/immersiveness of the experience. A revenue model I'd play with is a paywall after the first level (and capping the stats as kind of an "intro" experience) and doing away with the ads.
Last thought was around the item that allows the player to see the unit's information. That part felt especially clunky/tap heavy. Might be cool to just see the general strengths/weaknesses mid-battle.
Again, just a bunch of random thoughts, and the main takeaway is that you should be proud of not only building something cool, but putting it out there for others to enjoy!
Would be great to see more of this type of "self-serve" mental health awareness to help break down some of the stigmas/barriers in that space.
Cast iron with your choice of fat has served me well since switching over completely from non-stick.
