... Until now, Aviquill solved the "explaining a system clearly" problem but a GDD full of well-connected notes still left a gap before anything became a testable prototype. This release closes that gap. A designer can now sketch a quest, write the branching dialogue for the NPC who gives it, block out the level layout where it takes place, and rough in the UI that displays it to the player, all inside one connected canvas, without switching between four different ... ... than writing dialogue trees in a separate script document disconnected from the scene or character they belong to. Because dialogue blocks live on the same canvas as your narrative and systems maps, a conversation can visually connect to the quest

Your team is going to build all 5 as a side quest, and then maintain them forever. I'll admit my bias upfront: we sell BI software, so obviously I'd say this.

... been adding more planning modes to Aviquill, and the goal is pretty straightforward: Give game designers a space where mechanics, quests, level flow, and UI ideas can live together without feeling scattered. I'm curious what parts of your workflow feel the most fragmented right ...

... launch tomorrow and added a shoutout to Vercel. Just curious: What is the benefit of waiting till Thursday? :-) Comment from Moris Khoudari(@moris_khoudari): I launched Utilitly.com . It's a more affordable, cooler looking, more secure, and faster alternative to the giants like smallpdf, ilovepdf, Adobe Acrobat. Still in the early stages, but it's a great site to use especially if you're a law firm, real estate, general office worker, teachers, etc... it's designed to solve file ... ... building in almost the exact same lane with FounderFlow. Curious how you're handling the "which business needs me right now" problem specifically, that's the part I've found hardest to get an agent to judge well, versus

... trust problem you're describing is the core challenge for any warm intro product. "You know someone who knows them" is weak signal. The why now + why this path + what to actually ask is what makes it actionable vs. just informational. Sounds like you're building toward the right thing. Upvoted! If you get a chance, would love a look at AI Hive - we're solving a similar "bridge the gap between knowing and doing" problem on the enterprise ... ... retail investors - most of them don't have 3 hours to parse an earnings call and just want to know if the number matters.

... Flash was replaced by Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite Kimi was upgraded to Kimi K2.6 Claude Opus now routes to Claude Opus 4.7 This matters because Reddit threads are not clean documents. They are messy debates with jokes, side quests, repeated opinions, deleted comments, and sometimes one useful answer buried deep in the thread. The model quality makes a real difference when the job is not just summarize text , but figure out what actually matters here . I also improved the workflow ...

... spaces compliant while somehow forgetting to make them feel understandable. A venue can have ADA seating, elevators, accessible entrances, sensory rooms, shuttle services and people will STILL arrive stressed because finding and navigating everything feels like solving a side quest. What started as helping people navigate only stadiums has slowly turned into a much bigger realization: Accessibility isn t a niche problem. It s infrastructure . Not just for wheelchair users either. Also: Deaf & hard of hearing communities sensory sensitivities ...

... create guides for every single place? Answer: let the users do it. Wiki-style. Anyone can upload a guide for any location. But pure wiki + utility feels a bit dry, so I added game elements points, titles, quests, rankings, likes and comments on guides. Stuff like: visit 50+ places in one city and you unlock "Honorary Local." Explore enough bakeries in Paris and you get "Baker of Paris." Cheesy but intuitive and if you're the type who cares about ...

Comment from Arthur Richter(@arti90): Building ThePackt a quest-based community where indie founders, creators and builders genuinely support each other. You post a quest

... today and it stuck with me. Someone said it feels like just an expense tracker with a reskin. At first that stings. But after sitting with it, they re probably right. The system is there: XP, ranks, quests, progression. But if users don t feel that in the first few minutes, then it might as well not exist. That s on me. The real issue: The experience isn t clear when you first open the app. There s no strong ... ... about adding XP or achievements. It s about shaping the experience so users feel progression immediately. If the first interaction is confusing or passive, the whole concept falls apart. What I m changing next: A clear first quest

... Most people don t lack motivation. They lack a system. I built a simple web app to test this: Create daily quests Complete gain XP Skip get punished Build streaks, level up No reminders. No motivation. Try it for 3 days. If you quit, that tells you something. Link: https://eidolonascend.netlify.app Be honest: What s confusing or useless ...

... with traditional planners. They felt like a chore, and when I missed a deadline, the only "consequence" was a mounting sense of guilt. I wanted to turn my weekly to-do list into something that felt more like a quest. I built Shiba Scheduler , a gamified weekly planner where you look after a virtual Shiba Inu companion. The Mechanics of Fun Productivity I wanted to experiment with "Loss Aversion" and "Social Accountability" to see if they actually help people stick ...

... that adapts to them Tutoring today is guesswork. A student can spend months in sessions and still ask: Am I actually getting better? That s the problem we focused on. Mentrixa is a free tutoring platform built around progress, quests, duels ( 1v1 against people from your division) and end-to-end integrated video calls. Every session is tracked. Every improvement is visible. No more blind learning. Here s what that means in practice: Tutors see exactly where a student ...

... between this is cool and this is part of my routine . What I m building (Gleyo) is more focused on that second part, turning actions into something people actually stick to through things like daily quests, streaks, and a bit of social accountability. So instead of relying on motivation, it creates a structure where showing up becomes the default. I actually think that layer could make tools like yours perform way better, because it s not just about generating content ...

... kept procrastinating on everything studying, homework, just life in general. So I did what any reasonable person would do and spent months building an app to fix it instead of actually fixing it. That app is Grindset. Gamified productivity quests, XP, a room that evolves as you level up. Launching tomorrow. Happy to be here. Would love to connect with other builders. https://grindsetapp.vercel.app ...

... chance of success! It would definitely be cool to see even more small game-like ideas layered in over time. Nothing too heavy, just stuff that nudges people to explore or interact more.

I ve often found hidden gems just by scrolling all the way to the bottom of a launch page ... ... doing any distribution yet still benefits from community and algorithmic support, randomization can help surface it, which is positive, but it also feels unfair to those who are putting in the work, so the impact is mixed.

... built this after realizing i was losing 2+ hours a day to mindless scrolling, and no app really solved it for me. BreakRot combines an app blocker, Pomodoro timer, screen time tracker, daily quests, and goal planner into one focused experience. Not just to limit your phone, but to replace bad habits with better ones, wrapped in an interface clean enough that you will actually stick with it. Free on Android. Would love brutal honest feedback from this community ...
