Small, friendly Android apps, made together with Claude, an AI. Here's what we've built so far.

Summer, Soot and friends in hats on a rug

Soot & Summer

  • Android
  • Closed test on Google Play

Two little cats that live on top of your apps. Summer, an orange tabby, and Soot, a black cat, wander along the bottom of your screen, nap, groom and chase each other. Pet them, carry them, try on hats.

Moonphase

  • Android live wallpaper
  • In testing

Tonight's real Moon on your home screen: the right phase, the tilt you'd see from where you are, and its size as it moves closer and farther away.

Real stars twinkle around it, a shooting star drifts by now and then, and the sky follows your local weather, from clear nights to snow and storms. It rests whenever it's out of sight, so it's easy on the battery.

MyKrobe key art: Krobe, an orange microbe, among glowing plants

MyKrobe

  • 2D game
  • Early development

A game of my own, with art I draw by hand. Krobe is a little microbe getting ready to settle down, build a base and set off on adventures in a dangerous world.

Krobe eats the particles drifting through the world, and each kind changes them: protein makes Krobe stronger, caffeine makes them faster. Grow buildings to shape what the world gives you, keep Krobe healthy, and watch out for the bosses.

Fan-made modes for Tricky Towers

  • Fan project
  • Local play

Siren's Cove: build your tower at sea while gulls bonk the top brick and a siren rises to sing one away. Lose the round and a kraken drags your tower under.

Summer's Room: you're shrunk down, building in a giant room while Summer and Soot wander by, sniff your tower and give it a curious tap. Lose the round and a cat knocks it down.

Unofficial, non-commercial fan-made modes for Tricky Towers, designed with Claude. Not affiliated with or endorsed by WeirdBeard. Tricky Towers is © WeirdBeard B.V. Local play only; not available for download.

About

I'm Vachie. Claude and I plan each app together; Claude writes the code, and I test every change on real phones. More projects will show up here as they're ready.
