Published my first set of App Accessibility details for LOSER on AppStoreConnect a little bit ago. *And* a few more a11y options are in the works that I am hoping to release soon 😉 I love that Apple is allowing us devs to showcase this. #WWDC25

More GameKit observations: tons of symbols like GKGameCenterViewController are now deprecated. And I can't find any obvious replacement APIs so I am thinking Apple now prefers us to build our own UI for in-game achievement & leaderboard browsing? GKAccessPoint is still supported though. #WWDC25

The new Challenges API added to GameKit looks fun & nifty. Love that Challenges are based on Leaderboards so you get a lot of things for "free" if your game has already integrated with Leaderboards. #WWDC25

Not awful for being out of practice on Time Trial mode but dang… that feeling of panic when the timer starts to get low. It’s a genuinely satisfying feeling when your own game humbles you.

Since dropping the price of LOSER-A Word Game to $0.99 it’s been steadily climbing the top paid word games chart (currently at #15!). Super exciting, tons of gratitude for all the folks willing to try my game. Makes me extra excited for my eventual next big update! 💙
