Building a game similar to Zombies! Run but with slightly modified gameplay. Narrative heavy with point and click elements, quests, and choose your own adventure decision making elements.

I've been hacking on a similar idea since about 2016 but only recently picked it back up. I want to support walking and cycling - any activity as long as it's outdoors (no treadmills).

I have a few ideas about the narrative that I think should be fun and timely.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Signed up but not getting the verification email. Interested in the execution though.

just seen it- i think you made a typo in your email (.clm instead of .com) - I'll correct and re-send!

Thanks! Got it

Only feedback so far — I wish there was a bit of formatting for the numbers. The big blocks of text are hard to scan for important details.

Bullets are the first thing I can think of.

I'm building pgflow, a Postgres-native workflow orchestration engine that keeps the entire DAG's state and orchestration logic inside the database, while a dedicated task queue worker (Edge Worker) handles execution.

This split minimizes external dependencies and makes it easy to manage complex pipelines without leaving PostgreSQL.

I started pgflow because I wanted a fully integrated, Supabase-based system (no separate servers!) for reliable, parallel workflows which keep state in postgres so I can trigger flows from triggers and stream their progress via Supabase Realtime.

Started protytyping it in early November, released serverless task queue worker in January and I'm currently polishing the flow orchestrator pieces, releasing an alpha version in upcoming weeks.

If you're curious:

Happy to discuss or collaborate if anyone's interested!

Why no treadmills?

Currently, when my brain lets me, I am working on redoing my entire home network infrastructure. My network cupboard is a mess, and I've been slowly CADing and test-printing parts for a 8.5 inch server rack system. I've managed to get some nice side rails, and I'm currently doing some test prints for a mount for a Lenovo M700 computer, which I like for lightweight server stuff (the one I have is currently running my…

are you using https://zoo.dev/ to help create the cad files? they have a text to cad tool

I'm working on https://reynote.com (not optimized for mobile in case you want to try it out).

It's an AI-powered relationship coach supported by an specialized AI swarm following integrative therapy principles. It started off by me thinking "how would an AI relationship therapist work if they could see both sides of an argument" to me reading up a lot about integrative therapy, experimenting with various AI agent architectures and landing on this approach now.

I'm pretty happy now with how it works. Even my wife, which is not really into AI and is a coach herself is using it regularly.

I released an iOS app last October for users who use Apple Watch to record their workouts - https://mergefit.itwenty.me It lets users merge two or more workouts into a single one. There have been times when I have been out riding, hiking or whatever and accidentally end the activity on my apple watch instead of pausing it. Starting a new workout means having your stats split across the two workouts. The "usual" way t…

Great idea! One other thing that annoys me is the inability to trim workouts, mostly walking workouts which I forgot to stop. Even when the Apple Watch asks you if you want to end the workout, it doesn’t cut off the end where nothing happened anymore. It should be possible to do this (semi-)automatically using the heart rate and movement data.
