Up to 6 players. One phone.

No accounts, no Bluetooth, no WiFi. Enter names, pick lives, start. Pass the phone. Each player only sees what they're supposed to see. The cup handles the rest.

Designed for a table. A kitchen. A campfire.

And …
… here it is!

Meet Mäxle!

Only took me one and a half decades from notion of having an app on the App Store to … actually having an app on the App Store 😀

Apple already approved it. It's sitting on manual hold while I finish a few last polish items — a keyboard bug, a cup gesture, a dice reorder after roll.

Small things. But they matter.

This started as a weekend project. It did not stay a weekend project.

Releasing soon.

Niemand fragt nach Haptik. Aber alle merken, wenn sie stimmt.

Würfel im Rollen: schnelle, leichte Impulse. Einrasten: ein satter Stoß. Leben verloren: ein dumpfer Impact. Game Over: etwas Schwereres.

Sound folgt derselben Logik — AudioServices, stummschaltungs-bewusst.

Das sind die Details, die ein Spiel anfühlen lassen wie etwas Echtes.

Nobody asks for haptics. But everybody notices when they're right.

Dice tumbling: rapid light taps. Settle: a firm thud. Life lost: a dull impact. Game over: something heavier.

Sound follows the same logic — system sounds via AudioServices, silent-mode aware.

These are the details that make a game feel real.

Livsy Code → Learn Swift the smart way

· 4mo ago

Replying to

@alpennec@iosdev.space thanks, I appreciate your input. For anyone not being able to(or wanting to …) access X–here's the link to a suggestion made there: https://livsycode.com/swiftui/intercepting-swiftui-sheet-dismissal/ I also wonder if @danielsaidi@mastodon.social has us covered with his package https://github.com/danielsaidi/PresentationKit …

Intercepting SwiftUI Sheet Dismissal → Livsy Code

Greetings, traveler! SwiftUI sheets are great until you need one specific behavior: react when the user tries to dismiss the sheet interactively. You can disable interactive dismissal with .interactiveDismissDisabled(), and you can provide a “Done” button, but there’s still a common UX gap: the user drags the sheet down, expects it to close, and you

@danielsaidi@mastodon.social @alpennec@iosdev.space have a look at https://livsycode.com/swiftui/intercepting-swiftui-sheet-dismissal/ While it's more like a workaround to achieving the goal, it's still native. It cleverly uses the indents to react on the indent height being under a certain threshold. Could be an interesting addition to your package perhaps. (Being do close to WWDC, it also might make sense to wait and see what Apple has done for the SwiftUI universe first …)

@alpennec@iosdev.space would be nice if such a callback existed … One workaround could be to disable swipe to dismiss and introduce a cancel/save (or next or whatever) toolbar. Not always what one would probably want though 🤷

Well, 2^9 +1 is also freaking awesome 😎

Apple hat es bereits genehmigt. Es wartet auf manuelle Freigabe, während ich ein paar letzte Kleinigkeiten fertigstelle — ein Tastaturfehler, eine Bechergeste, eine Würfelreihenfolge nach dem Wurf.

Kleinigkeiten. Aber sie zählen.

Das hat als Wochenendprojekt angefangen. Es ist kein Wochenendprojekt geblieben.

Bald gehts los.
