Get Floor Is Lava on Google Play
Showing a friend the pipeline
Walked a friend through the whole AI-assisted development process today: Claude Design for UI mockups, Cowork for bulk diary/data processing, and Floor Is Lava as the flagship example of what a year of evenings with an AI collaborator can produce.
Friend: “Have you put the Personal Best app online yet?”
Me: “That’s the second app I’m pushing through. Floor Is Lava is going to be the first.”
The 12-tester, 14-day path to release
Asked Claude directly what’s actually required to release: move from internal testing to closed testing, with twelve Google accounts signed up and the app downloaded. The catch; it doesn’t verify anyone actually plays it, just that twelve accounts have installed it and fourteen days have passed. Once that clock runs out, publishing is unlocked.
Climb the platforms before the lava rises: 51 story episodes, six game modes and global leaderboards. Download the game on Google Play.
The plan to hit that number: recruit friends as testers directly, promote on Facebook, and; cleverly; get Lance to hand out printouts about the game at school, so friends’ parents can download it too.

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.
