what if, on twitch, you could; - collect cool moments + clips where you were present in chat ("i saw <x> live!") - purchase or bid on a limited edition pass, which grants VIP or other custom roles in chat. there are clear ways to deepen the exp people have on twitch today (all onchain)

very surprised to hear over 50% of purchasers of silly golf came from people casually browsing the vision pro app store I thought organic traffic would be <10% Your own listing IS an Ad. App previews, screenshots, and media are the best ROI investment you can make.

Silly Golf has surpassed $250 in rev within 2 days Listening to user feedback on reddit, pushing updates, and working to get featured on the app store. I underestimated the importance of app previews + screenshot quality. iterating on design there! I promised to build in public, and will continue to do so 🫡

short term roadmap for golf, based on ranked user feedback: - [p0] improved hand tracking estimation algorithm - [p0] better app previews - [p0] crash related to SwiftData (so buggy) mid term: - [p2] visually redesigned courses - [p1] re-evaluate pricing model (free + DLC vs. one-time-purchase)

key learnings from 3mo vision pro development: - you need to take into account your user's pose. the device _hurts_ your neck, and after 10 minutes of bad pose you will lose most of your users. - you need to be creative to get good results from RealityKit / RealityComposer. - Perseverance >>
