Apps
Things I'm building, in beta now.
Three iPhone apps are in TestFlight beta now, on their way to the App Store. I design them, build them with AI, and test them with real people before they reach the App Store.
The King of Beasts
King of Beasts is a strategy battle game for iPhone. You raise one beast and fight your way up the ladder to become king.
Pick a home element: Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Spirit, Poison, Light or Dark. Or go Natural and let raw strength do the work. Then build your beast’s attacks and defenses from the elements you win. Some elements counter others, and some pairs combine into powers you have to discover for yourself.
Every round is a secret guess. Attack, Guard or Shift, and each one beats another. Before a fight you can study your opponent’s recent battles and tune your build to counter them. Or you can change your own pattern so you can’t be read.
Power is never handed out. Win a battle and you take 1 unit of power from your opponent. Battle is the only way a beast grows. Climb five tiers, from Beginner to Expert, and every step up brings more strategy.
Play the computer to train, or challenge a friend face to face on a second phone. Nothing in the game can be bought to make a beast stronger. Purchases only unlock extra beast slots.
Status: TestFlight beta.
War of the 4 Kings
Four armies. Four Kings. One table. Be the last player holding cards.
War of the 4 Kings is a card game of battles, betrayal and long memories. You are one of the four Kings, leading a Red, Green, Black or Gold army across the table. Each round, every player places a card on the battlefield face down. The highest card wins the battle and takes everything on it.
Then the Heroes arrive. A General collects hostages from every loser. A Spy that falls to a General can steal him away. A Medic saves a fallen card before it reaches the graveyard. An Assassin ends a Hero with a single card. When one player holds all the power, the others can call a revolt and match a card to cancel it.
If the table stalls, the Army of the Dead rises from the graveyard and joins the fight as a player of its own. The game ends when one King is left holding cards.
Play 3 or 4 players. Take on the computer armies at three difficulty levels, each with its own style of play.

Check My List: Routines
Your calendar knows when. Check My List knows what to do before.
Check My List turns your calendar into a plan for getting ready.
Most calendars tell you what’s happening and when. They don’t tell you to pack the shin guards, fill the water bottle, or leave by 4:15 to get there on time. Check My List does. It reads the events already on your iPhone calendar and figures out what kind each one is: a soccer game, a cross country meet, a concert, a youth group night, a road trip. Then it builds a checklist of timed steps, counted back from the start time.
You check steps off as you finish them, and the app reminds you about the ones still waiting. It also works out bedtime backward from tomorrow’s first event, then builds a wind-down routine for the evening so the morning starts calmly.
It was built for a busy kid with a full week, and it works for anyone who has somewhere to be and a list of things to do first.
