"We're just ducks and our workplace is a field"
https://www.quackk.work
We realised standups and team meetings are kind of broken. Not in a dramatic way, just in a "we do this every day and somehow still don't know who's available or what anyone's actually working on" kind of way.
So for the Figma Config Makeathon, me and Aman Priyadarshi built Quackk@work 🦆
The idea: what if your whole team existed on a shared farm, and everyone was a duck? you can see where everyone is, what they're working on, and who has bandwidth. Need help? Quackk at that duck. They get notified on the platform and via the Quackk Slack bot. They accept, and now you're both on the project together. You can make announcements, run polls, and for absolutely no productive reason, pick up your coworkers' ducks and terrify them.
Illustrations were drawn in Figma Draw. Figma Make accelerated our wireframing process, Figma MCP connected our favourite AI tools directly into the workflow, and Weavy handled the intro animation. Built within the Figma ecosystem, the project pushed our understanding of what an end-to-end design stack can do.
Work can be serious. Design doesn't have to be.

For the #ConfigMakeathon, I built Rollroom 🎲
A desktop-only backgammon web app where you can create a room, share one link, play live 1v1, chat in real time, use voice commands, or play against a bot.
I built it with Figma Make, using Figma’s AI workflow to move from interface design to a working interactive prototype.
The idea: make a classic board game instantly playable online, without accounts, setup, or friction.

Good work!
SPOT THE BOT, a gallery game about telling human creativity from a machine's
The problem. AI can now create almost anything, and for designers that's not abstract. The fear is that taste, judgment, the human "tell" in a piece of work no longer counts for anything. So instead of arguing about it, we made a game out of it.
The idea. Everyone gets the same prompt ("give beige a personality," "what keeps you up at 3am"), the same fixed kit of pieces, and 30 seconds. So does an AI. Every tile lands on a gallery wall, and players vote: which one is the bot? Then comes the reveal: who fooled you, and who you fooled. The constraint is the whole point. When everyone has identical pieces, the only thing separating the tiles is taste, wit, and choice, the human stuff. Right now the bot fools 72% of players, and every round feeds that number: a live, accumulating measure of where human judgment still holds the line.
The build & workflow. Designed and built end to end in the Figma ecosystem: the editor, the real-time multiplayer rounds (MAKE, VOTE, REVEAL), and the MUSEUM of every player-made tile. The asset kits (risograph, torn paper, duct tape, liquid metal, and more) were generated with Weavy.ai.
It's recursive by design: a game about spotting machine-made art, built with the machine's own creative tools. The medium is the argument.

Good work!
You know that feeling when it's 3am and you have so much going on in your head but nowhere to put it? No one to tell, no diary you trust, just… everything sitting heavy inside you.
That's exactly why I built Vent It.
It's a safe little space where you write everything you've been holding in and watch it disappear into the fog. No storage. No receipts. Just you, your words, and that lighter feeling after.
The background shifts with real time, so if you're venting at 3am, it feels like 3am. It matches your moment.
And you're never fully alone. There's a tiny cat companion that somehow always knows what to say when you're going through it.
I built this because I couldn't find a place like this when I needed one. So I made it.
Try it and tell me if you felt it too 🌫️
Love this idea. Creating a space for reflection and emotional release feels both thoughtful and meaningful. Good luck!
