Updates on Apps, Games, and Plans

In this episode, I'm sharing some big updates across my apps and games. First up — my Job Finder Tracker app is now available on Android! It helps you manage your job search, track applications, follow up on leads, and attach multiple resumes to each listing. I'm really proud of this one. https://peterwitham.com/mobile-project-job-search-tracker [https://peterwitham.com/mobile-project-job-search-tracker] I'm also making serious progress on the PVP mode for my Project Hack game [https://projecthack.net] — player-vs-player hacking is working and nearly ready for public testing. And finally, I'm weighing whether to move into video podcasting.

When sick, don't even try to Podcast, plus app updates

Recovering from a heavy cold, sharing a key lesson: when you're sick, give in and rest — fighting it only prolongs recovery and hurts your output. Also a new iOS update to Job Finder Tracker, adding multiple resume support. Plus,  a fun April Fools episode of the Compile Swift podcast revisiting early iPhone OS history.

You should own the media you pay for!

Are you really owning your media? In this episode, I share why I'm ditching streaming services and going back to physical media — DVDs, CDs, and even MP3 players. From music that gets swapped out without your knowledge to digital purchases that just disappear, the illusion of ownership is real. Plus, I'm bringing the cloud home with self-hosted services. Let's talk about taking back control.

Prototyping with simple on-screen elements

I'm diving into why starting with simple on-screen elements is crucial for app and game development. On a recent live stream, I worked on my UFO cow-abducting Roguelike using basic cubes and shapes instead of fancy graphics. This approach lets me focus on core features, workflows, and how the game actually feels to play. Once I validated the concept and mechanics, I started replacing those simple elements with polished assets. Skip the six-hour button design sessions early on—prioritize functionality first, and you'll be amazed at your progress. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ [https://patreon.com/pwcom]

Social Networks and me, where did the content go?

I've given up on all social media platforms—they're drowning in AI-generated slop and clickbait. It's heartbreaking because I'm missing genuine connections with friends and colleagues, but wading through the garbage isn't worth it anymore.  Save your sanity: quit doom scrolling and rethink who you follow. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★ [https://patreon.com/pwcom]
