the source code is public! there’s lots of hacks to make it work, but the state of zig dev on pebble is always getting better

very few people in his audience said in the comments they were liking, and many of them said that they had difficulty figuring out how to make even make an account. (makes sense, a lot of them seem to be normal people.) it can explain part of the jump, but not all of it imo.
could you maybe check the accounts liking their apps to see if they're legit? i have no problem accepting their win if its actually legit, but they went from bottom to first faster than anything you’ve shared despite not having successful posts
i don’t want to come across as rude, but me and some other devs have looked into every place they have posted it and how much traction those posts have got. the numbers don’t line up. alex has made a bot tracking their like frequency and it seems unnatural.
btw do you know what’s up with natural time and circula? while i was agonizing over my vote count i noticed some suspicious activity from their like count.
probably this one ;)

Hey y'all! I'm in the leaderboard's top 10 now! This is the most important time to get votes because they can directly lead to me making it to the top 5! Please throw Royale a vote! It's a really cool watch face with some neat plans for the future!

i have now broken the pebble app store. you literally can't download my watchface because it's too cutting edge lol

special thanks to @funnyna.me and @fouzr.bsky.social, among all the other people who've helped out through code, testing, and all the other things. i will reply to this with more handles if anyone else who helped volunteers their username.
it's completely open source. steal code for your own cool stuff! make zig on pebble even better! have fun!
also if u have any issues or feature requests, put them there. i don't actually own a pebble time 2, and i bought the round so i can't test on device.

evie: I have never built anything pebble before, and I will showcase me learning from knowing some zig and no pebble to a full watch face. Fouz Reda: Good luck! Got a design in mind yet? evie: i think it'd be fun to do a casio
afaik, this is the first pebble app or watchface written entirely in zig, which is pretty neat! look at little baby evie not even realizing how much suffering she's going to put herself through to realize this
It's finally out! This is my first time developing for the Pebble (or any embedded system for that matter), and went from concept to product in 12 days for the Pebble Developer Contest (by @ericmigi.com). It's written entirely in Zig.
Go give it a ❤️!

thank you! it should be done by today so make sure to share and like it when it’s up! i bought a round 2 and not a time 2 so i have to win the contest to better support it lol
it’s time 2 only for now. each watch i support will be a bit of extra work and i had to aggressively cut scope to try to get in before the contest ends. i hope i still can. i’m struggling with settings
brooo the gif didn't work. here's a reupload
A gif of a pebble watch face. It looks like a Casio watch.
i've been working on a pebble watch face for a bit and i wanted to share it cos i'm proud of it! i'm at the hardest part now, time zones, but once i finish that i'm kinda home free.
thoughts? there's a lot i want to change once it's finished and i can give myself permission to increase scope.
that’s the zelda from link between worlds! she’s my favorite
omg pebble bird brain demoscene when
im a card game nerd and it’s so bad that ive switched to netrunner just cos i can buy all the cards in one go. artist-made alt arts are completely legal so one day when i have money ill commission some of those
i’m so sorry but “it usually goes hand in hand with you they/thems”
is so funny i’m saving that line for the next time you personally slight me.
idk if you have an actual job on top of this but it would be funny for occupation to say “internet pornographer”
ah but what you’re missing is that now that they’ve done even the most basic version of old pokemon game support on switch, now they can justify getting rid of bank. i suspect it’s the beginning of the end for bank, and i’d be willing to bet they shut down bank before they port all the games over.
ive seen reg pens in stores as thin as .35mm, but if you need to go thinner you could always reach for a fude nib. the sailor hocoro is pretty affordable. brush pens also exist (pentel pocket brush pen is great)
new hb 5/3! is hb allowed to have a good agenda suite or will it be another year of salvo testing? find out on the blog post (i think it's good though)
