My Spring Jam entry — "Time Warp Runner" 🏆
Built this in about 3 hours using Emerv AI. The time-reversal mechanic was tricky to implement but the AI nailed it. Currently #1 on the leaderboard!

Tips
How I improved D1 retention by 40% with one prompt change
The secret? Add "with a tutorial in the first 30 seconds" to your prompt. The AI generates a brief control hint that dramatically reduces first-session drop-off. Tested across 8 games.

Question
Best prompt patterns for mobile-first games?
I've been experimenting with adding "optimized for mobile with large tap targets" to my prompts. The games feel much better on phones. What prompt tricks do you all use for mobile?
