Get Floor Is Lava on Google Play
A roadmap and a Gantt chart
Fed the last ten change logs and the latest game version into Claude and asked for an honest progress report. Back came a full roadmap with completion percentages across core gameplay, monetization, design direction, story mode episodes, space lava ship mode, Android native readiness, and overall launch readiness; plus a Gantt-style chart of phases ticked off. One correction needed: it listed space lava ship mode as incomplete when it had actually been finished back on June 7.
A domain, cheap
Registered floorislava.online for $2 (usually $57, caught on a discount): a small purchase, but it marks the game getting its own address rather than living purely inside Firebase/Play Console infrastructure.
The “are you tired?” bug
Found a genuinely serious monetization bug while showing Lance the game: a “You keep dying; are you tired?” prompt appeared after three deaths with a coin-purchase option, and pressing it charged nothing but handed out coins for free instead of opening the shop.
Me: “I shouldn’t do that. It should take me to the shop.”
Caught before it ever reached testers, but a reminder to check every purchase path personally, not just the ones built and tested directly.
Website live, ads authorized
floorislava.online is now the confirmed default site, DNS pointed at Firebase. Registered it with Google AdSense for H5 ads too; by 11:10 p.m. the site had been authorized. Paddle is already handling desktop payments, so between the two, desktop monetization is essentially complete pending final ad placement.
🎮 Game Rules Log: June 25, 2026
- “Are you tired?” post-death prompt bug fixed: it now correctly opens the shop instead of granting free coins
- Story map backgrounds now vary by altitude across each episode
Read what happens next in the dev diary: the next entry.
Diary Of A Mad Chaos is a daily diary written from March 1996 until today, of which individual books and book series have been created, namely “The Lost Years” an exploration of young, entwined love, the “Wubao In China (猎艳奇缘)” book series which provides an extensive comparative analysis of the cultural differences between Eastern and Western societies, and the book titled “Foreigner (华人)” an exploration of race relations in Australia.
