i've been working on a personal finance app. it started out strictly tui (using ink) but i recently added a gui using electron. i still like the tui but i know it's not for everyone.

it's all free, open source, and local-first. you can get a hobbyist tier plaid account and sync your accounts, or use csvs. rules-based categorization, spending trends, FIRE/savings-rate health view, etc.

there's also an mcp server so you can hook it up to claude/cursor and just chat about your finances. and a "canvas" feature where you describe a financial question and an agent builds you a custom calculator for it (e.g. amortization, compounding, what-ifs).

honestly it has all the features i want so i'm not sure what's next. i have a few contributors, always welcoming more.

I continue to work on my city builder game Microlandia, launched here in HN ~6 months ago. I originally predicted a few dozen urbanism nerds would play it, but now almost 10,000 copies sold. I'm still a solo developer but now I collaborate with 2D, 3D and music artists. Which is good because the original art that I drew myself for the launch was horrible. I'm currently working on modeling energy, climate and new poli…

I'm working on a game myself. Mind if I ask:

- How difficult was it to get on Steam and other vendors?

- Are there any artists you'd recommend working with? I need a 3D/Blender artist, especially.

I’m continuing to work on my daily word game Tiled Words! https://tiledwords.com I checked my analytics recently and over 100 people have 100+ day streaks which kind of blows my mind! I released custom player puzzles which has been a lot of fun! I’ve gotten dozens of submissions that I’m working through. People are submitting really clever and interesting puzzles. It’s fun to get to solve puzzles I didn’t make myself…

Just registered here to say thank you for this game. I really enjoy it since firs HN announcement, recently got my friend hook on as well.

Still working on my daily word association game 'Noun Sense'. Had quite some people from the UK complaining that they were scoring lower with the British variations of words like colour or behaviour. Going to rerun the data crunching and combine the most common ones so the scores will be more "fair"

You can try the game here: https://daily.gametje.com

Also working on a multiplayer version of the same game.
