Need to change the footer too, something like: "SudokuPad created by Sven Neumann, puzzles by their respective authors"
Thinking of putting up a popup and give the promo space for free to community members for their puzzles.
Hah! I do this challenge every two days!
So what does one do when the WSJ slaps your game app on their website without so much as an email or message?
The problem is that my rabid sudoku community cries "cheats" for basic UX and QoL features, lol!
Go to bed at 23:00... Sleep for 5 hours and get up at 9:00. A good night by my standards...
TBH, I recently realised that the comical incompetence in TV that bothered me so much wasn't caricature, but realism... :(
Thanks so much! Will try it out on stream today, let's see if it'll get struck! Pls let me know if the credit line is sufficient. (PS: It's a tiny stream with not too many viewers)

Can I ask "font people" to recommend a font for sudoku?
Are you ElectroBear on YT?
Thanks, added a tip. Will try, as I'd love a break from my current play list, lol! YouTube.com/svencodes
Can I use them as background music while streaming (programming), without getting copyright struck?
16-bit aesthetics feel so strange to me as I programmed hard in asm in the 90s in 8-bit styles, then skipped to the 2010s, and never really experienced that era!
Just checking that "💧/s" means "dripping with sarcasm"...
It's confidently and repeatedly wrong without consequence. So it's a perfect fit!
At some intervals I completely forget that my dog is a dog and am, quite roughly, shocked back to that reality by suddenly realizing his nose is REALLY long for a person, or that he has dense hair, like EVERYWHERE! Or that his toenails are curved and thicker than my own!

It's really quite jarring.
A metroidvania... Makes sense!
Came across this at the park and can't figure out the button prompt to activate...
@realcarykh.bsky.social You latest sudoku video reminded me of some VFX I had experimented with in the early days of SudokuPad. Let me know if you ever want to collab and put something funky into SudokuPad!

(Holy-moly is it hard to post GIFs anywhere these days!)
Real talk:
How do you transition an app/game/tool from version 0.592.1 to 1.0?

It's used by 40,000+ users daily, and has been in live operation for 5+ years...
So, I'd like to try some modern local co-op games (it takes two, split fiction, etc) with my gf, but she's new to modern controllers (last game she played was Crash Bandicoot!), so is there something we could both play to "learn" modern controls without stress? (I've learned via Elden Ring)
Why is my first instinct always to write code to do something rather than to check if an app already exists?! In this case to use mobile phone accelerometer data to record my dogs heart and breathing activity.
The first four games I bought I don't think I've ever played!
As long as professional sports isn't exclusively done be "average" people, I don't think it matters what attributes people have "on average".
