Windows APIs give great info about size and position of windows. Challenging part is really the per monitor scaling, but it’s not impossible either. Great product, top work

Ok I’d say look to do the simplest thing you can that increases your score at all, asap. You don’t need to immediately make a friend somewhere. Work on maybe the meditation question, or exercising (by walking) each day. That’s MUCH easier t

An old saying (old to me anyway) regarding improvising in music is that if you make a mistake, just keep repeating the mistake- it will sound deliberate. It’s surprisingly effective.

Sounds like you’re in a bad place. I have a checklist I use to try and keep my mental health strong. The idea isn’t that you get a perfect score on this checklist, but that you ask yourself “what’s the easiest way to improve my score in thi

I've made a clone of Drugwars previously (called "Handguns and Cigarettes) and I can confirm that the mechanics are not the same. I get the similarities, but there are not many. This is more like a time-management game. I love dru

Good suggestions. I’ve added them to my personal backlog. Unfortunately Founder is too busy to do them right this minute.

Cheers Ivan. That’s exactly what I was hoping it would show. There’s no cross-skilling available at the moment (I want to add this to the store) but that would demonstrate the value of cross-disciplinary team members.

I am working full time, and my products make modest profits. I’m also a parent so that’s another full time job right there. ;)

There are thousands of names... you got very lucky to have so many Renees! On iOS, btw, if you use “add to homepage” it will act like an app. (Full screen; high res icon) But my kids want me to make it a proper iOS app with animation.

If the rest of the economy was experiencing hyper inflation as seen in the game, it would extend into your coffee too ;)

Observation means that as soon as they complete a card they immediately look for a card of the same sort. With self starter there is a delay before they look for it (which can actually be good) and if they have multiple skills they’ll first

If you Buy them each multiple of the self start or the observation skill you will need to do a lot less clicking.

I’ve done a lot of other things in the meantime :), such as putting out profitable projects and books etc. The original vision for this game was a fully animated iOS game. It only became worth doing when I suddenly had a way to make it ultr

I’m not familiar with that. Reading about it now cheers. Looks like a “cookie clicker”

Ah ok. Here’s how it works. You can give someone multiple self-starters. Say you give someone 3 of them. That means that after they’ve been assigned a task manually (once) they will then go back to their desk and after a little pause, spont

(Developer here) They do have an effect. Click the question mark next to an item to read a description. What have you experienced?

by LeonB 7y ago
To avoid the grind: If you give your people multiple of the self-start skill they will do more work with less clicking on your part. Also observation skill is similar, means they can do multiple in a row without any intervention.

Here's a really lightweight game I made, written in vanilla javascript, no frameworks, no graphics (just Emoji). For 10 years I've been meaning to make this. (It was even mentioned on Hacker News back when I first wrote about it:
