Naval warfare is coming to TinyRTS... and the AI has to learn it as well. Currently giving it the brains to load up workers in boats, expand onto other islands to get its resources and move armies using boats. TinyRTS is about to level up.

THE PIRATE FISH ARE INVADING TINYRTS. Three new units, a new survival mode and a little trailer. Maybe a bit too much hype? I love it. #gamedev #webdev

Finally added rally flags to TinyRTS, a much requested feature. You can queue commands for existing units or newly trained units. Makes it much easier to play. Thanks to @PixelFrogStudio for the custom flag art♥️ Btw there's also ingame chat now :) Have fun!

You have to let the models have fun as well. Told Opus 4.7 to explore the TinyRTS codebase and implement whatever it wants to. It decided to add little pixelated fireworks when you win, they fit really well!

Getting into development will teach you a lot of patience and frustration tolerance. Took me three days of constant work and debugging to get this outline system right showcasing the range of towers and archers. Worth it though. #gamedev

Added change tracking to the map editor a while back, hoping for some satisfying timelapses. Time to reap the fruits.

Stuff noone tells you before starting web-gamedev: Your site gets marked as phishing, malicious and accused of every sin under the sun. But, through lots of emails and even security reviewers testing if my tutorial is a phishing attempt, we're slowly getting there.. 5 left

I woke up to this today. A TinyRTS player (@frederik_ho) downloaded the site code, gave it to AI, and built a procedural map generator for the game. I didn’t ask for this. But I kinda love where this is going.

Thinking about turning this into a procedural map game mode for TinyRTS 👀

Implemented a custom tutorial scripting mode using Codex for making easy-to-understand tutorials and future singleplayer maps. Accessiblity should be a priority for every gamedev. The tutorial is live now for all new players who visit the site, let me know if you have feedback!

Love the dynamics already possible in TinyRTS. Here, a player manages to rush a much larger enemy and destroy his town centers quickly, killing him. Then he takes the "corpse" enemy army and baits it into another player, destroying him as well. Well done 👏 #rts #gamedev

Love the little things you can do with web-gamedev. Want other people to join your lobby at an event? Create the lobby and let them scan the QR code. Full RTS experience, instantly joinable, no install or download required. #gamedev #rts

Turns out "replay mode" was so powerful it tried to replay the entire server back into itself and exploded. Fix is in, matches should be stable again! Sorry for the inconvenience.

A joke about vibecoding could be made here I think.. but it's mostly due to me testing in production. Oops..

Plan the architecture of your vibecoded games thorougly from the start, it will compound a LOT. Because TinyRTS was already a deterministic simulation, we were able to implement a memory-efficient replay system in one shot! Keep in mind this is all running in the browser.🤯

It's been an absolute blast to watch new players try out the game against the AI opponents over the last few days. Thanks to everyone who tried it out! Here you can see the classic moment before chaos, as the AI army approaches an unsuspecting player. #indiedev #rts #gamedev
