Get Floor Is Lava on Google Play
Ads land on mobile, desktop lags behind
Published to the Google Play Console this morning, then spent the day chasing down ad-integration bugs: Versus mode was still showing the old watch-ad and piggy-bank buttons after premium logic removed them elsewhere. By afternoon, mobile was showing genuine AdMob interstitial ads instead of the old five-second countdown placeholder. Desktop, running as a Firebase-hosted PWA, was still stuck on the placeholder; different platforms need separate ad and payment packages, which became the next task.
Fifty treasure sprite sheets
Started generating the treasure artwork for Story Mode’s 51 episodes today. A single sprite sheet with all 50 treasures proved too complex to generate in one shot, so the workflow became: six variations per sprite sheet, roughly 50 separate generation passes, each one copy the prompt into Claude Design, download the transparent PNG. Repetitive, but reliable; up to sheet ten by evening.
Late night: PB Tracker gets a stable build too
Alongside Floor Is Lava, merged two previously separate features in the PB Tracker app (the exercise-set creator and the voice-set creator, which didn’t talk to each other) and added personal bests to the calendar view.
Photos from today
Focus: mobile ads live, desktop ad/payment gap identified, treasure sprite sheet production begins.
Read what happens next in the dev diary: the next entry.
