Stage 7 and 8 Fall into Flow!
https://leeos-supreme.itch.io/fall-into-flow S7 and S8 are live and are a bit of a challenge. There are two blocks that cause the red blocks to fall at break-neck speeds. You can use/touch/catch the white block to slow the red blocks' fall (S7) or use/touch/catch the strobing block to spawn a Big Block (S8), which will slow the red blocks when they both touch. Every stage has its own "persona" and story, but it's just good to have fun. ✌️ ...

"Fall into Flow" is an activity/game to help one potentially have this experience and offers a way to distract from distractions! Getting Started: -Set a number greater than 0 + select a stage (S1, S2, S3, etc.). -Control the white circle to dissolve red blocks. -Dissolv...

Fall into Flow on itch.io
Since getting banned on Amazon (😅 still sounds funny...), I had to "figure it out." I figured I'd go direct-to-consumer (D2C) and let the chips do what they do. This gave me an opportunity to do some code housekeeping, muckup some other stuff and find new bugs. I have a domain collecting dust and figured I would put it to work! I captured some game play using Nothing Phone 2 and discovered that the stats would randomly flicker when an animated block (sprite) was "removed from the canvas." 😮‍💨 ...

Cooking on Level 4
Not so much medium-low heat, but there's only three stages on Fall into Flow. It was very intentional. 1) Most def, I wanted more "stuff" in it, but get the basics down and don't catch perfectionist paralysis. 2) Every platform has a learning curve. So, less time learning + building and just ship it. 3) Where there's enough substance (the intent behind the app and within the app/game play), the app will provide momentum and tempo, on it's own. More on #3 I needed to build this game app. The i...

And Let It Rest for 10 Minutes
Being self taught can be a wonderful thing. That is, it's all good, until it ain't. Garbage in, garbage out. Hopefully, there's a good reference to learn from, otherwise one can't truly progress. I hit a few snags working on Stage 4, because I didn't how what to ask (of myself). The code is mostly in place, allowing for CTRL+F/H/V to set up new code, then "season to taste." But then it breaks. I did a lot of CTRL+Z'n and inserted what I thought "looked right" 👹. Eventually, the 💡came on like ...

Timing is an Art
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi popularized the concept of "flow," in which a person becomes completely immersed in the current task or activity. "Fall into Flow" is an activity/game to help one potentially have this experience and offers a way to distract (the player) from distractions. It's a simple game (with no sound FX or music), with the objective to dissolve the number of blocks that you set, before that number of blocks fall off of the screen. The blocks progressively increase their speed afte...

The First of First
I recently discovered Standard Notes and Listed and this felt like BlackBerry Channels, for some reason. Seems legit. This being my first post, I figured I'd share my first published app, Fall into Flow. It's live (and free) on the Amazon Appstore https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DM4T5QMN/ref=apps_sf_sta Not having a Gmail, nor wanting to dish out the $25 dev fee, this felt like the path of least resistance. The apk will be hosted somewhere, soon, with a pay-what-you-want, model. The activity/gam...
