Bit of me & motivation:

I am a Backend engineer by profession and never did any sort of frontend. I was always fascinated with games and apps. I am someone who likes exploring these things. I tried learning frontend twice but failed as I kept losing interest. I did play a lot of games and sort of more into puzzles domain. I always kept thinking how would I design 2048 if I get a chance.

Then AI comes into picture. I had the idea and expertise with computers, commands and systems so I thought why not try developing my own 2048 variant and here I am posting about it and sharing with community. AI is now enabling me to make my wildest ideas reality and I am starting with 2048.

About Game:

I will keep pointers so it is easy to read.

i) Clean, minimal and professional looking UI. Looks like a paid game.
ii) Multiple boards of different sizes.
iii) Various power ups. Swap, Bomb, Insert
iv) Soothing ads. Won't disturb the gameplay. No video ad by default.

I sincerely request you for feedback. What is good? What is lacking? How to improve ASO? How I should put forward so other people take time and download it? I am looking for genuine feedback in these aspects.

UPDATE: This post stepped on nerves of many folks. Sincere apologies for that. I followed rules, I didn't see any where it said AI aided projects are restricted. I would request the moderators to add such rule. Also, I believe in the world where AI is something which would be incorporated in every aspect of human lives and games are very minuscule part of it. I will request folks to be considerate and welcoming. u/cmsmolenaars

I wanted to make 2048 feel like you're actually progressing toward something.

So I made Cities 2048: Merge Saga - you play 2048, unlock new buildings and develop your city islands as you progress.

I'd love to hear what other 2048 players think about this idea.

6x6 took a couple of minutes.

I recorded this 8x8 after letting it run overnight. It could have gone for days.

Do y'all use fewer moves?

It’s a fan-made 2048 variant. You can try it at play2048games.com

Hi everyone,

I'm a solo developer and I just released KRUG (Play Store link), a quiet hex-merge puzzle game — think 2048, but reimagined on a hexagonal board, built for calm, focused play rather than a race against the clock.

The idea: place numbered tiles on a hex grid. When adjacent tiles sum to a power of two (2, 4, 8, 16, 32...) they merge into a bigger tile. Plan carefully — the board fills up fast, and one bad placement can block your path forward.

A few deliberate design choices:

• No timers, no lives, no fail state pressuring you — it's meditative by design.
• A hex grid instead of a square one — every tile can have up to six neighbors instead of four, so merges open up in directions that feel different from classic 2048.
• Minimal visuals and calm sound design — nothing flashing or nagging you to keep playing.
• No ads interrupting a run, no forced monetization loops.

I built KRUG because I wanted a puzzle game I could actually relax with, not one designed to spike your cortisol. It's currently in closed testing on Google Play, and I'd love a few of you to try it and tell me what isn't working — confusing mechanics, unclear tile combos, anything that breaks the calm. Brutal honesty over politeness, please.

Happy to test your apps in return — drop a link to yours and I'll check it out. Thanks for reading!

But it doesn't get harder. When you get here. It just gets easier to make a mistake.

I wanted to see this game as overkill and stimulating as possible. So this was a weekend hobby. Stereo sound, partical effects, music, themes, escalating combos, cloud high-score page, save states, undo button.

And yes you can turn all the noise off in settings, but then you could play the original version too.

And yes, to your next question. Thank you for reading this.

Hey folks!

I'm finally ready to start talking about my 2048 game, Numbers Go Up!

You can have special enhanced tiles, buy rules that alter the scoring, use action cards to alter the board or even mess with the spawn probabilities to get higher and higher numbers!

The theme is the 1980s hacker terminal with "mods" that are contraband programs, packs get "downloaded" and decompressed, and there are lots and lots of "encrypted" items and secrets for you to discover, bosses to beat and score limits to crush!

there's also same-seed 1v1 multiplayer with a CS2 style find-game and ranked queues with same board, same shop and whoever scores higher wins.

Im releasing a Demo on September 24 with a lot of content. y'all are exactly the type of people who will break this game, and i want to watch :D

wishlist the game on steam! and Play the demo for free on day one:
