How Tyamka is made: design, skins, web and Telegram.
- Honest points, and why we do not say the games train your brainHow points work in all 15 Tyamka games, why results compare you only with yourself, and why we do not claim the games improve memory or attention.
- One codebase for the web, Telegram, iOS and AndroidWhy Tyamka runs on Expo and React Native rather than Flutter or three native apps, what we measured before choosing, and what the web build costs us.
- Checking scores by replaying them on the serverHow the Tyamka leaderboards check a result by rebuilding the level and replaying the player's moves with the same code, and what this still cannot catch.
- How the default look was chosen, and why a skin is a data fileThree concepts, one that still looked machine-made, a plain paper theme that became the default, and a skin format where most work was layout, not color.
