A meme game won me $1,000 at an AI hackathon.

Now I’ve put that $1,000 on the line.

My challenge:

• Build an AI app
• Reach $1,000+ MRR
• Do it in 8 weeks

I’ve never done indie hacking before, so I’ll be sharing the entire journey publicly.

Day 0 🔥

My customer tried to pay for the service, but Polar's API was down at that time. So unlucky 😂

Claude Opus 4.8 is down currently

My perfectionism has convinced me that one more redesign, one more feature, and one more tweak will make all the difference.

In reality, it’s just preventing me from launching.

Got an idea for my startup by just looking at this picture my friend @linee_64 has drawn

@tsaltanatt Will definitely use that, as I’m too lazy to write smth by myself 😂

Funny how 10 months ago I was just a regular high school grad with no special achievements and a big portfolio.

Everything changed when I started coding again after a 2-year break.

Over the last 10 months, it has taken me further than I ever imagined.

New connections.
New places.
New opportunities.
Countless experiences.

All because I decided to start building again.

And this is only the beginning 🚀

Day 6 of building, and here we are

[Almas Bekbolat @ba5bit8]

Everyone talks about grinding 12 hours a day.

Few talk about staying healthy while doing it.

Build the startup.
Hit the gym.
Repeat.

No excuses.

Too blessed to stay average.

Back to building 👨‍💻
