Do you know what's happening tomorrow? Fivefold mobile is launching! 🎉 fivefold.ca/app/
Image showing a screenshot of the fivefold game on the left and the fivefold logo in rainbow colours on the right. The screenshow shots a 5x5 grid, partly filled with the numbers 1 to 5. The grid also has dots and pentagons between some tiles, representing special rules. There are UI buttons below to enter numbers into the grid, see the rules, or get a hint.

I made a weird little game about government policy. It's very short and can be played in a few minutes, right in your browser: otrain13.itch.io/policy-initi...

So I got the results for my GMTK jam game, and it ended up getting rated in 10th place in the "Enjoyment" category, out of 10,600 games. Pretty proud of that!

For my game's terrain, I've long mulled over how to combine the epicness of grand mountains with the "what's around the corner?" intrigue of smaller cliffs and hills. After a lot of fiddling over the past two days, I think I may be onto something. #GameDev #ProcGen

I guess I'll introduce myself to Bluesky by announcing that we made a new game! Fivefold is a logic puzzle game where the rules change every day. fivefold.ca
Screenshot of a web puzzle game from a browser. The header says “Fivefold” and “Daily”. The main play area is a 5x5 grid. Some of the grid cells are filled in with large numbers of various colors. Some of the cells have small numbers in them representing possible candidates in those cells. On the edges between some cells are symbols, some are pentagons, some are multiple dots. The dots range in number from 1 to 4 dots. These symbols represent rules telling the player information about the relationship between adjacent cells.
