All on-device, all completely local. All code generated directly on an iPad Air M4. Initialized the "project" using Apple Intelligence (Foundation Models) to get an initial base. Then moved to use Gemma 4 E4B. It's workable. Is it great? Not yet. But possible. #gamedev #love2d

Run agent mode completely local on-device. - Agent Mode w/ native tool calling - Using @googlegemma Gemma 4 E4B (MLX) - 100% local, no server - Shown from an iPad Air M4 #gamedev #love2d #loversbrew

Been a while. But, some updates to LoversBrew. - Agent Mode. Switch the AI to agent mode and let it write and run the LÖVE project. All running on iOS/iPadOS. Here I used @MiniMax_AI M2.7 through @ollama cloud to add a start menu to my idle game prototype. #gamedev #love2d

From LoveMaker to LoversBrew. You can now use an AI assistant ("Aiko") to help write code. Making it faster to prototype LÖVE games directly on iOS. Here I used Kimi-k2.5 through @ollama Also lots of clean up and updates to the UI. #gamedev #love2d #indiedev #prototype

A little side quest. After about 10 months and 7 users, I redesigned prequeled.com to be more mobile-focused. It looked like the handful of users and vistors came through mobile or tablet. A.k.a., I used it almost always on mobile.

Back to the tower simulation management game. Needed to clean up the UI because I was starting to struggle playing my own prototype. Also, running it from LoveMaker on my iPhone to test out mobile. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #idlegame

Introducing LoveMaker. While working on prototypes, I also worked on creating an IDE/text editor to make and run LÖVE games directly on my iPad or iPhone. I wanted to try if I can make a full game all from my iPad. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #lovemaker

Didn’t forget about the soccer game. Added in some temp graphics to give the field a little perspective. And made work it work on mobile. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #soccergame

Gave it a little more life by adding some movement to the tower tenants. Also added in an elevator to move tenants between floors. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #idlegame

Still doing prototypes. Prototypes have been super fun to make. Added in tenants to hire/fire into non-residential units. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #idlegame

New super early prototype, different type of game. Testing out an idle game type. Basically build your tower, make money, build taller. I'm still on that LÖVE train. #gamedev #love2d #indiegames #indiedev #prototype #idlegame

More WIP. Not a huge change but, upgraded the AI for more natural movement to stop all the bunching and flocking like 6 year olds playing an AYSO game. It's old, but this was very helpful: red3d.com/cwr/steer/gdc9… #gamedev #love2d #RETROGAMING #indiegames #indiedev #prototype

Trying out different fields/field-types. Mixing up the gameplay per level, maybe...? #gamedev #love2d #RETROGAMING #indiegames #indiedev #prototype

Merry Christmas!! Added in local multiplayer. Now I can play along with my 8 year old daughter. #gamedev #love2d #RETROGAMING #indiegames #indiedev

Day 2 WIP. Trying out a dash-like tackle ability for the player. And removing/adding GK players. Aiming to make the gameplay more action-oriented to see if that's fun or not. #gamedev #love2d #RETROGAMING #indiegames #indiedev

New quick game prototype. Aiming to make an "arcade-style soccer game". A retro soccer game like "Soccer" on NES. Prototyping using Love2D. #gamedev #love2d #RETROGAMING #indiegames #indiedev

It's quick and fast and short. offekt.itch.io/pixeldash

New game! "Pixel Dash" Just keep running and keep jumping! Link below to play. #pixelart #ドット絵 #gamedev #love2d

As the weekend project turned into a couple weeks project. Added in another level and a few little extra bits to the gameplay. #pixelart #ドット絵 #gamedev #love2d

Made a weekend game project with my daughter. She made the characters to be like her and her little sister. Found some background art on itch.io, some edits in aseprite, a little Love2D magic and boom, a simple runner game. #pixelart #ドット絵 #gamedev #love2d
