Get Floor Is Lava on Google Play
Lance draws the lava ship
A genuinely lovely collaborative moment: found a spaceship Lance had drawn and cut out on the floor; round, tubby, three portholes, a little figure looking out the middle one, upward-swept wings. Scanned it on the spot and had Claude generate several in-game versions from the stencil.
Me: “I’m going to use this for Floor Is Lava.”
Lance: [nods] “Okay.”
Getting it right, together
Placed Lance’s ship design into the game that same evening and showed him immediately. He caught a real problem: the player model was rendering oversized behind the ship art; and it got fixed on the spot, along with a related bug where catching a vine mid-flight in the ship should revert the player back to normal form.
Read what happens next in the dev diary: the next entry.
