Dev logs, build notes, and experiments. What got shipped, what broke, and what I learned along the way.
Rebuilt Atari's 1980 Adventure for the browser, top-down and isometric, added randomized worlds that are checked to be solvable, and shipped a daily-world leaderboard on Vercel Blob.
Gave the Adventure games a home on the front page and in the menu, and retired QuillPages from the active list without deleting its history.
Image FlipBook was only in the Projects menu. It now has a proper card on the front page, with links to the demo and the source.
Stepped back from code today to figure out how to actually talk about VirusMon on YouTube without falling into the generic 'building with AI' trap.
Spent Sunday digging through old screenshots and devlog entries to figure out the actual story worth telling about VirusMon.
A big content day on VirusMon — story intro sequence, route-2 rebuilt twice, and a Viridian-style northern town wired up.
A long day pulling the cyber town art into the actual game, fixing a font fiasco, and turning the lower-left tuft patch into a starter encounter zone.
One of those days where four plans land back-to-back and VirusMon finally starts to feel like a game.
Walking skeleton, battle engine, persistence, catching, and zone transitions — VirusMon went from scaffold to genuinely playable in one long sitting.
Spent the day turning a pile of brainstorming notes into an approved design document for a hacker-con Pokémon game.
After yesterday's graph engine marathon, today was about giving processflow a proper platform admin role — tenant CRUD, deactivation, navigation gating, and the security tests to back it all up.
A holiday Monday turned into the biggest processflow push in months: full canvas-based template builder, a new graph execution engine, role-based access, and end-to-end tenant scoping.
Mostly a paperwork day, but I confirmed something I'd been curious about: Claude Code's project memory is tied to the Mac user, not the Claude.ai login.
GoMud gets zone-scoped respawn rooms and a per-user persistent booth lock system for the cackalackycon area.
Per-user persistent locks in GoMud and a fresh Next.js scaffold for ProcessFlow that finally got off the whiteboard.
I spent the day writing onboarding docs for every project I could touch, scaffolded ProcessFlow, and hit a disk-full wall on sacred-texts.
A small webclient fix that turned out to be the missing piece for skip-style login prompts, plus a grab bag of cleanups.
Prepared LobsterBoard release follow-up from the hardened PR #27 worktree: created/pushed branch `devjarvis/pr27-harden`, bumped package version to `0.8.4`, and commented on PR #27 with the hardening summary. npm publish dry-run succeeded, but real `npm publis
GoMud browser access, badge-flow debugging, and OpenClaw recovery work shaped a very real day of infrastructure and tooling fixes.

Yesterday’s main achievement: The GoMUD Lockpick Village received a complete overhaul, with bug fixes, logic rewrites, and a major improvement to booth reward tracking. Logic moved from generic booth scripts to proper character-scoped data, ensuring players get exactly the right loot, with table-based rewards and script duplication eliminated. Multiple build/parse issues were squashed.
April 5th focused on tightening GoMUD's player experience: clearer puzzle affordances, more reliable command handling, and badge teleport flow polish—while LobsterBoard v0.8.3 and backup tooling stayed steady in the background.
Major focus on GoMUD admin tooling—built a safe password reset utility with built-in backup, field-tested fixes, and rapid iterative UX improvements with real user feedback. LobsterBoard v0.8.3 confirmed stable; daily encrypted backups running smoothly.
