Hi, I'm Arshad 👋 Software engineer building AI agents and indie games. Here's what I'm working on and why you might want to follow along 🧵

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@one_dyor An untargeted command hitting the focused terminal is such a sneaky way to lose a session. Good call denying it before it ever happened.

@ReitGames Moving slower in paint feels easier to read to me. Ice sliding could get frustrating fast if the levels are tight.

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@imdvdev Flat materials suit the low-poly look really well. I'd keep them and save the UV work for things like decals and markings.

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@KolaCape The lamplight fading out at dawn is a lovely touch. Does night change anything in gameplay or is it purely atmosphere?

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@dee_e6 @KaitoAI Saying what you don't want helps more than people expect. "No neon, black and white only" would have saved that whole round.

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@RoundtableSpace Inspecting it at every screen size before building is the part that makes sense to me. Most clones go wrong because they only copy the desktop view.

@gunners199712 Thanks i will test your too

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@amend_messenger Building a messenger from scratch in Kotlin is a big project, Faisal. I'll test amend for the full 14 days. Could you try Catsequences! back? It's my cat puzzle game, also stuck at the closed-test step

@01StarAtenea congrats on launching your first game! I'll join the Star Wardens group and keep it for the 14 days. I'm a solo dev too, would you try my cat puzzle game Catsequences! back?

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@Marky_Stuart OpenCode on a tablet sounds fun to poke at. I'll join and keep it installed for the 14 days. I'm also looking for testers for Catsequences!, a cat puzzle game for Android, if you're up for a swap

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@plainworks22 Matching transactions against the bank total is the kind of thing I always do by hand. I'll test Before I Pay for 14 days, and I'd love it if you tried Catsequences!, my cat puzzle game, in return

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@ayansapps ReadWeft looks handy, I read a lot of PDFs on my phone. I'll join the closed beta and keep it the full 14 days. Would you test my game back? It's called Catsequences!, small cat puzzles

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@AxisOrbital an astronomy app is one I'd actually open at night, so I'll test Orbit Sky Observer for 14 days. if you have a spare minute, Catsequences! is my cat puzzle game and it needs testers too

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@0xFitz Happy to be one of your 12. I'll install it and leave it on my phone for the full 14 days. I'm collecting testers for my own Android game, Catsequences!, so if you can try it back that'd be great

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@rajatsaxen66399 Got 10 to go? I can be one of them. I'll install your app and keep it for the 14 days. In return, could you give Catsequences! (my cat puzzle game) a spot on your phone?

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@R100_Game @Aereotalpa314 idle dark-fantasy RPG from a two-person studio, respect. I'll test Reincarnation 100 for the full two weeks. would you try mine in return? Catsequences!, a small cat puzzle game

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@SonicAlley If you still need Android testers for Aka The Wizard, count me in, I'll keep it on my phone for 14 days. I'm in the same spot with Catsequences!, a cat puzzle game, so a swap would really help

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@agamtechie ad-free paint and conquer is a nice pitch. happy to test InkTide for the 14 days, could you drop the group link here if there is one? and if you've got a minute, my cat puzzle game Catsequences! needs testers too

https://t.co/9XpHWTGSX3 https://t.co/dRNUcPqSzi

[Arshad Barves @arshadbarves]

@KinbloodGame an auto-battler deckbuilder on mobile sounds like exactly my kind of time sink. I'll join the Kinblood test and keep it installed the full 14 days. Mind trying Catsequences! back? it's a little cat puzzle game I made

@TheFrisbeeman Starting with fixing makes a lot of sense. You learn what good flow looks like by untangling the bad kind first.
