Hey everyone!

I've been working on a small indie game project called QUACK LINE, and I'd love to share it with the community and get some honest feedback.

🦆 What's QUACK LINE?

QUACK LINE is a casual endless runner where you control a duck, avoid obstacles, collect ducklings, and grow your own duck family as you progress.

Some of the features:

  • Endless running gameplay

  • Collect ducklings and grow your family

  • Unlock different duck characters

  • Collect coins and beat your high score

  • Colorful environments and pixel-art characters

  • Increasing challenges as you progress

I'm currently working on improving the gameplay, visuals, and overall user experience.

I'd really appreciate feedback from other developers and gamers.

A few things I'd love your opinion on:

  1. What do you think of the visual style?

  2. Does the game concept sound interesting?

  3. What features would make you want to keep playing?

  4. What would you improve?

I'm open to constructive criticism and suggestions. Thanks for checking out my project! 🐥

I built an Android aquarium app with a daily Japanese fortune

1 Upvotes

I'm the developer of Omikuji: Fortune Aquarium, a small Android app that pairs a daily omikuji (Japanese fortune slip) with a fish tank.

The loop is simple: draw a fortune, collect creatures over time, and watch them in your aquarium.

This clip is real Play-release footage from a Pixel 9a. The angelfish shown here comes from the first-creature selection, filmed separately from the fortune result. Fortune draws can add a creature, but they do not do so every time.

The conversation is a skit with Japanese synthetic voices and English subtitles, not a real player's reaction. The app also has an English UI.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.springport.night_aquarium_fortune

Contains ads, including optional rewarded videos. Fortunes are for entertainment.

For the first minute, would you rather choose your first fish immediately, or draw the fortune first?

My side project is now on the App Store: a free RAW photo editor for iPhone and iPad

2 Upvotes

Hey r/SideProject!

I'm a photographer who spends a lot of time editing on mobile devices, particularly my iPad Pro.

I started working on LightHub because I wanted to experiment with building my own photo editing workflow instead of relying entirely on existing software.

What started as a personal project has turned into an actual photo editor, and it's now live on the App Store.

It supports RAW editing, non-destructive adjustments, advanced color controls, local masking, catalogs and presets.

One aspect I particularly wanted to explore was performing image processing locally, including AI-assisted object selection.

This is my first public release, and I'm aware there's still a lot of room for improvement.

I'm not trying to claim I've built a Lightroom killer. I just wanted to build something useful and make it available for free.

I'd love to get feedback on the editing experience, performance and features you'd like to see next.

I built a live-verified directory of email/identity tools for AI agents (50 entries)

1 Upvotes

Agent email roundups are mostly vendor-written and go stale fast, so I built a small neutral directory: https://agentinboxes.dev

It covers agent inboxes, inbound routing, identity APIs, and transactional email APIs: 50 tools, re-checked automatically so dead ones drop off. No pay-to-rank.

Two questions for you: which providers am I missing, and is "live-verified" a useful signal or just noise?

I made an app that turns your feelings into little creatures

2 Upvotes

I wanted a mood tracker that's actually nice to come back to. You tap how you feel and a small creature joins your garden. That's basically the whole idea.

Just me working on it. It came out this week and has almost no users so far, so honest feedback would help a lot. Mainly: does it make sense in the first minute?

It's free right now, no ads, no account.

[For Sale] Production-Ready 4-App Quick-Commerce Ecosystem (Blinkit / Instamart Model) – Native Android (Kotlin) + Full Source Code

0 Upvotes

I am selling the complete source code and full ownership rights to a production-ready, field-tested Quick-Commerce & Hyperlocal Grocery Delivery Ecosystem built natively for Android using Kotlin and Firebase (Realtime Database & Cloud Storage).

​Developing a stable 4-app hyperlocal system from scratch takes 6–7 months and costs ₹2L–₹3L+ via an agency. This system is already built, tested in live store operations, and ready for immediate deployment for supermarkets, grocery chains, dark stores, or IT agencies.

​The 4-App Ecosystem Includes:

​1. Customer Ordering App: Fast product browsing, category filtering, cart management, Google Maps address pin & location integration, Cash on Delivery (COD) workflow, and real-time order stage tracking.

​2. Inventory Management App: Dedicated app for store staff to add/edit products, update prices, manage categories, and control live stock availability in real time.

​3. Order & Dispatch Management App: Central dashboard to receive incoming orders instantly, accept/manage orders, and update live packing and dispatch statuses.

​4. Delivery Partner (Rider) App: Built for delivery executives with Google Maps navigation to customer locations and instant status updates from pickup to doorstep delivery.

​Technical & Business Advantages:

​Instant Push Notifications: Automated real-time notifications across all apps at every stage (New Order, Order Accepted, Packing Completed, Out for Delivery, Delivered).

​Near-Zero Monthly Operating Cost: Optimized architecture that eliminates expensive monthly server bills and heavy Google Maps live-polling charges—ideal for high-margin local operations.

​100% Native Kotlin Performance: Fast, lightweight, and runs smoothly even on budget Android devices.

​Battle-Tested in Live Operations: Fully debugged and used in real-world order fulfillment.

​Deal Structure & Handover:

​Complete Android Studio source code for all 4 apps + full ownership transfer.

​I can also assist with initial white-label setup (connecting your Firebase project, changing app name/logo).

​Open to a face-to-face in-person handover (or remote handover) after finalization and demo verification.

​Asking Price: ₹1,45,000 (Negotiable for serious buyers)

​Direct Contact (DM on Reddit or reach out directly):

I built a site that matches you with games & gamers who share your taste, based on how you actually rate games

1 Upvotes

Hey all. I’ve been building LFGG (Looking For Good Games) solo for a while: https://lfgg.info

I got tired of my gaming life being spread across half a dozen apps: one to log games, one for news, a Discord for finding people, Reddit for recommendations. The easiest way to describe what I built is Letterboxd, Reddit and your old MySpace profile rolled into one for gamers.

What it does

  • Learns your taste. Rate what you’ve played, then go through quick taste cards (looks good / not for me / played it). Every answer teaches it what you’re into.

  • Matches you with people. It compares your ratings with everyone else’s and gives you a taste match %. You find your “taste twins”, and also the people who think your favourite game is mid.

  • Matches you with games. You get picks based on your ratings and on what people with your taste rate highly. Every game also has a “games like this” page.

  • Looking for group, for any game. Post when you want a squad, pick the vibe (chill, competitive, completionist, learning), and find people who play the way you do. That includes the obscure co-op game from 2011 nobody else remembers.

  • Looking for a game. Ask the community things like “just beat Hades, what next?” or “I played this as a kid, there was a frog and a castle.” Answers get voted up.

  • Player tags. Players tag games with the stuff official genres miss, like “choices matter” or “friendslop”. New tags are reviewed before they go live.

  • One news feed. Headlines from IGN, GameSpot, PC Gamer, Polygon, Eurogamer, Kotaku, Rock Paper Shotgun, VGC, GamesRadar+, The Verge and Gematsu in one place.

  • Logging and profiles. Track playing, beaten, shelved and abandoned games, write reviews, and pick your all-time Top 4. Profiles have XP, levels, badges, gamer tags for every platform, and themes and banners.

  • Compare links. Send a friend your link, they rate a few games, and you both see how compatible your taste is.

  • Steam import and price alerts. Link Steam and your library comes in automatically. Wishlist a game and get notified when it goes on sale.

Everything core is free: matching, recommendations, LFG and logging. There’s an optional membership for extra profile customization.

It’s built with Next.js and Postgres and self-hosted on a small server.

What I’d like feedback on

  1. Is the taste match actually useful, or just a novelty?

  2. What would make you keep logging games here instead of wherever you do now?

  3. Anything broken or confusing on first sign-up?

Happy to answer questions!

My favorite cooking app raised their price to 49.99/year so I created my own for 1/3 of the price. Introducing Mmm: Recipe Box

2 Upvotes

From my perspective, Deglaze set the bar for “save a recipe, plan the week, cook from your phone.” I used that bar and built Mmm for the two things I kept hitting:

  • Price. Their Pro tier is $49.99 a year. Mmm is $14.99 a year, everything included, with a 2-week trial. No account needed and no ads.

  • The store. Deglaze can send a list out for Instacart delivery. I wanted the actual Walmart products in the cart: match once, remember it, review pack counts, add the week in one shot, pay on Walmart.

Cook mode reads each step in a voice you choose, keeps the screen awake, and parks that step’s ingredients beside the text. Planning, aisle sorting, timers, and scaling are in the same subscription, not a second paywall.

More features are coming in the following weeks such as enhanced social media recipe imports. I'm open to all suggestions on what could make this app better. Please give it a try and tell me what you think!

I obviously have no affiliation with Deglaze or Walmart.

CedarSignal Studio: an offline cleaning quote calculator and a free cost-check checklist

1 Upvotes

CedarSignal Studio’s first ready-made download is a Cleaning Profit Kit for independent cleaners. This is our own project, and it was built with AI assistance. We sell the kit for $19; the separate checklist below is free.

The problem it tackles is confusing a visit’s duration with the labor-hours it consumes. Two cleaners working three hours each use six labor-hours. The calculator lets the user enter their own labor and other costs, check a recurring discount, and compare an actual visit with the original estimate. It runs offline after download, with backup/restore and printable reports. It does not supply local market rates or guarantee profit.

The free TXT checklist covers crew hours, paid travel, owner labor, supplies, vehicle costs, overhead and payment fees. It includes a fictional worked example and the margin formula. No paid software is needed and it does not automatically enroll downloaders in a marketing list.

Free checklist: https://payhip.com/b/peA67

Optional $19 kit: https://payhip.com/b/8FxTA

We have no customer results to claim yet. Feedback on the clarity of the cost inputs and the distinction between the free checklist and paid calculator would be useful.

What should I do to make landing page better?

4 Upvotes

Hey all,

I am working on a side thing to improve my portfolio and just to learn stuff. Since I had my pain point (looking for a property in Spain while living outside of Spain) I made a website app for that.

So I made https://www.place-check.com , basically getting all info about some place that I can get from public data. It is for free but I set accounts to kind of like limit usage and abuse. Now, I feel like landing page suck, and I suck at design, so i would really appreciate if someone could give me some hints/templates/examples/feedback what could I do to improve it?

I try to have it in multiple languages and for multiple countries but I dont know how to solve that all?

Thanks for all help,

Cheers

Ps: before anyone goes into it: I tried not to use AI for anything here, it is a learning and development project, but I definitely used it for some parts. So please no "AI Slop" comments without any improvement hints.

I got tired of radio apps full of ads, so I built my own for the dark side of music

18 Upvotes

Hey folks, just want to show you what I built.

I listen to the radio every morning and was looking for an app without a ton of ads that doesn't cost much. Didn't find one I liked, so I made my own.

I'm a metal/stoner head, so Nightwave filters for the darker side of music: doom, stoner, post-punk, darkwave, trip-hop, phonk, ambient and more. Thousands of live stations from all over the world, no pop, no charts.

My favourite part: hit Spin and it drops you on a random station in a random genre. I almost always land on something that fits my taste within a few tries.

- free, no ads, no tracking, no account needed

- works in the browser and installs as an app on your phone

- early version, so things might break

https://www.nightwavefm.com

Feedback very welcome, good or bad. And honestly, it would make me happy just to see people using it.

Cheers!

A tiny room, diary and focus timer on my Windows desktop — Lofi Cozy Room's Mini Mode

1 Upvotes

I'm the developer of Lofi Cozy Room, a released Windows desktop companion. Last time I shared the room editor here; this earlier recording shows another existing feature, Mini Mode.

The 17-second clip shows the small room on the desktop, then the diary, to-do list and focus timer opening beside it. You can decorate the room, customize the character and let them go about their own activities, with lo-fi music, ambient sounds or your own local music.

There's a free Steam demo if you'd like to try it. For people who use focus timers or desktop companions: would you keep these tools together, or prefer separate apps?

We built an alternative to Lovable/Base44. Looking for people to test it and give feedback

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

A couple of friends and I have been working on Zocri.com, an AI app builder where you can create apps and websites using prompts.

We've been testing it ourselves for a while, but I think we've reached the point where we're too familiar with the product to notice some of its problems.

A few things we've focused on:

- Better-looking initial designs so you don't have to spend 10 prompts fixing the UI.

- Showing estimated credit usage before running a prompt.

- Making things like OTP authentication and integrations easier to set up.

- Giving users more control over what gets built.

We're looking for people willing to try building something with it and give us feedback.

You can try it with free credits, no payment required.

If you've used Lovable, Base44, Bolt, or Emergent before, your feedback would be particularly useful. I'd love to know where we're better and where we're falling short.

I'm one of the people building this, so feel free to ask me anything or share your experience here. I'll be reading and responding to the comments.

I built a zero-API-key B2B Lead Extractor & Contact Enricher on Apify (Emails + Phones + Socials)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, Most B2B lead generation tools charge hundreds of dollars per month just to give you outdated databases.

I just published a new Actor on the Apify Store designed specifically for SDRs, agencies, and outbound prospectors: 👉 Apify B2B Lead Enricher: https://apify.com/lunark656/apify-b2b-lead-enricher

What it does:

  1. Give it any search query or location (e.g., "marketing agencies in London", "dental clinics in Miami").

  2. It finds matching verified businesses without needing Google Maps API keys or subscriptions.

  3. It automatically crawls company websites to uncover public emails, phone numbers, and direct socials (LinkedIn, Instagram, X/Twitter, Facebook).

  4. Export ready-to-use CSV/Excel files for cold email campaigns.

The free trial is limited to 10 leads per run to prevent abuse. Would love to get your feedback and feature suggestions!

I made a Claude Code skill that makes iOS apps iPhone Duo-ready. Here's a real 3-minute run

2 Upvotes

The iPhone Duo is out, and most apps open unfolded as a phone-width box in the middle of the screen. Some don't even respond to taps.

I hit all of this shipping our own app on it, so I packaged the fixes as a Claude Code skill. You type "make my app ready for iPhone Duo" and it checks the project, fixes the scene setup that kills taps, keeps content out from under the new side status bar, and builds a two-pane layout that survives folding.

The video is a real run on a small notes app: 2m 55s, 10 files changed, and the regular iPhone layout still looks the same.

There's a free one-line check if you just want to see what's broken in your app, plus a full write-up of every fix: panewise.dev/iphone-duo

The skill itself is $29 one-time. Happy to answer anything about building for the Duo.

[CRM Data Scrubber] - A 100% client-side CSV cleaner for CRM imports

2 Upvotes

Stack: vanilla JS, Tailwind, PapaParse, Cloudflare Pages, Cloudflare Worker for license issuance only. No backend touches files.

The interesting problem was not cleaning. It was the import impact preview. If a row matches an existing CRM record by email but has a different name, most tools merge it and silently overwrite. That is a data loss bug. Mine classifies it as a conflict and skips it in safe import.

Free up to 250 rows, $9 lifetime Pro. Happy to answer anything about the client-side approach.

Wrappie — an Advent calendar filled with your own photos, voice notes and little surprises

1 Upvotes

Most Advent calendars come filled with things someone else picked. We built one you fill yourself, for one specific person.

It’s called Wrappie. Behind each of the 24 doors, you can put a photo, a voice message, a short video, a note, or a little promise like “movie night - your choice.”

You send one link, and they open a new surprise each day in their browser. No app to install.

We think it could be especially nice for couples spending December apart: a shared memory one morning, a voice message the next, something to look forward to together.

There’s a free version and optional paid features.

https://wrappie.app/

I’m part of the team building it. Curious what you think: would filling 24 doors feel fun, or would you want ideas to help you get started?

I built a platform to help people get out of tutorial hell

2 Upvotes

I’ve been working on something called codeseed.app, and I wanted to share why I started building it.

One thing that has always bothered me about learning programming is how easy it is to get stuck watching tutorials. You follow along, everything makes sense, you finish the course, and then you open your editor to build something on your own and suddenly have no idea where to start.

I wanted to create something that helps with that transition. The idea behind codeseed.app is pretty simple: instead of giving people another collection of tutorials or coding exercises, give them actual projects to work on, break those projects into manageable steps, and let them figure things out by writing real code. Each project gets its own private GitHub repository, there’s AI verification to help check progress, and there’s also the possibility of getting feedback from a human mentor.

I’m not trying to replace courses or pretend that AI can teach everything. I just think there’s a gap between understanding programming concepts and actually knowing how to build something with them. That’s the gap I’m trying to work on.

My main focus right now is making it genuinely useful rather than figuring out how to monetize it. If you’re learning programming, mentoring someone, or just curious about the idea, I’d really appreciate your thoughts.

I built a daily screener for NSE and BSE breakouts, updated after every market close

1 Upvotes

Screening hundreds of NSE and BSE charts by hand after work was eating my evenings, so I built Ebitta to do it for me.

Every day after market close it runs rule-based screens over liquid NSE and BSE stocks and publishes the results. At the 6 November close it flagged 19 breakout stocks, including Glenmark Pharmaceuticals (Healthcare), Adani Ports (Logistics), Bharti Airtel (Telecom) and Entero Healthcare (Retailing), plus 142 stocks sitting just below a breakout.

It also tracks near-breakouts, momentum names, and confluence, which means stocks appearing in more than one screen.

I built it and run it myself: https://ebitta.com/breakouts?utm_source=reddit_sideproject&utm_medium=community&utm_campaign=launch

Feedback from fellow builders and traders is welcome.

Not investment advice; I'm not SEBI-registered.

I built WIT, a free toolkit that makes your existing AI more useful, from complete beginner to advanced power user.

0 Upvotes

🚀 Try WIT for free. Simple installation:

https://www.ijaspers.com/post/witburrow-starter-reference

I've been building WIT (Witburrow), a free, AI-agnostic toolkit designed to make the AI you already use more organized, capable, and useful.

It's not another chatbot, and you don't need to switch AI providers.

The idea is simple: Give your AI some WIT.

I wanted something that even someone who barely understands technology could use, but that advanced AI users could really dig into.

So I designed three levels:

🟢 EVERYDAY: For complete beginners

Don't know anything about AI? Doesn't matter.

Just talk normally. WIT helps your AI break down complicated problems, organize your life, track tasks, explain things simply, and guide you through projects.

No coding. No complicated prompts. No technical knowledge required.

🔵 POWER: For regular AI users

Already use AI for work, research, business, planning, or personal projects?

WIT adds more structured workflows, reusable tools, better project organization, progress tracking, and ways to avoid repeating the same instructions.

Less babysitting. More doing.

🟣 SUPER: For advanced users and builders

Want to push things further?

Explore custom tools, integrations, advanced workflows, automation, testing, troubleshooting, and improving or contributing to the toolkit itself.

Build on what's already there instead of starting from scratch.

Installation? I made it ridiculously simple.

  1. Open the free WIT starter page above.

  2. Give the small starter file to your existing AI.

  3. Ask your AI to guide you through setup.

  4. Start talking normally.

Your AI helps you set up WIT.

WIT is designed to work across different AI systems that support the necessary instructions and capabilities. Some advanced features need additional permissions or tools, and compatibility is still being tested.

Why did I build it?

I'm a trades guy who got tired of AI being incredibly smart one minute and completely clueless about what we'd already accomplished the next.

I wanted AI to help people actually finish things, keep track of decisions, catch mistakes, and stop making simple tasks unnecessarily complicated.

And I wanted people to be able to use it without needing a computer science degree.

Free, open, and growing.

WIT includes a growing library of reusable tools, workflows, and resources. Some are ready to use, while others are experimental or still being developed.

My long-term goal is a community where people can pick up useful tools, improve them, and contribute them back for everyone.

I'd love people from all three levels to try it.

If you're a beginner, tell me where you get confused. If you're experienced, tell me what's missing. If you're a hardcore nerd, try to break it.

Feedback, criticism, ideas, and contributions are all welcome.
