Seller Saga: A Selling RPG with Shipping Deadlines
Seller Saga started as a joke for my girlfriend, who loves livestreams and selling on TikTok and Shopee. I turned that enthusiasm into a pixel-art selling RPG, and she played it too.
Each battle has two stages: attract buyers, then pack their orders before the shipping deadline. Tapping brings attention and clears the packing queue, while products, staff, and equipment shape what your shop can handle. Getting more orders feels good until you have to ship them all.
I built the enemies around selling frustrations. Refundzilla heals through returned orders, while the One-Star Review Dragon attacks your reputation. The Cursed Label Printer makes packing faster but introduces more mistakes.
Progression unlocks products, helpers, equipment, and sales tactics. Local saves preserve progress, offline earnings reward returning players, and Launch New Brand starts another run with lasting bonuses.
I built this private personal project with Godot 4 and GDScript. Its portrait interface includes English and Thai, adjustable text size, high contrast, and reduced motion.

nice pacing on this one
Second Route — turn “I don’t have a truck” into a completed sale.
Client: Second Chance Finds, a fictional solo furniture reseller in Austin, Texas.
Problem solved: Turn Facebook Marketplace delivery inquiries into confirmed delivery appointments while reducing the owner’s work coordinating buyers, pickup details and crews.
The owner starts with a listing screenshot, reviews editable item facts and shares a listing-specific delivery link. The buyer supplies delivery details; the seller confirms pickup, measurements and timing. The supported desk workflow moves through quote acceptance, a qualified two-person crew hold, clearly simulated checkout and a saved booking confirmation. Item purchase stays between buyer and seller.
Before: scattered messages about addresses, stairs, availability and transport. After: one linked request with confirmations, status and next action.
Built in Lovable. This is a functional booking demo: synthetic prices and crews, no real charges or transport reservations. Other physical items enter quote review. Facebook links are optional references; there is no official Facebook integration or reliable link-only import.

Series Title: MAJOR MUNKY
What happens to a video-game character after the player turns the game off?
Major Munky is a retro action drama series that breaks the fourth wall to explore the life of a classic 16-bit game hero after the game is over.
Inside the game, Major Munky is an unstoppable jungle commando, fighting enemy monkeys, firing bananas, defeating giant bosses and winning every mission. But when the screen says “YOU WIN,” the game doesn't really end for Munky. But outside the game, Munky is just an ordinary, tired husband who is scared of cockroaches, polite to people and is afraid of any danger he faces. His day job is being the hero of a video game; when his shift is over, he removes his bandana, drives home, cooks, cleans, watches TV and lives a quiet life with his wife.
The pilot follows Munky from his final boss battle to his completely different life outside the game, until his old final boss, Kong, breaks the rules of the game and enters Munky's real world.
Kong has kidnapped Munky's wife and gives him 24 hours to rescue her.
“You always win in games. Let's see if you're a hero in real life.”
For the first time, Munky has no player, no health bar, no extra lives and no restart button.
Where We Would Take the Series Next:
Munky sets out to find and rescue his wife, but along the way he slowly discovers that the skills he thought only existed inside the game are actually part of him. He follows clues left behind by Kong, using his game instincts, combat skills, problem-solving and knowledge of his enemies to track him down.
Each episode becomes a new level with its own challenge, taking Munky into unfamiliar places and situations where he has to use his old game skills in the real world. But unlike the game, he can't simply restart when things go wrong.
As the clues get closer to Kong and the challenges become harder, Munky begins discovering his own courage and learning what it actually means to be a hero.
And throughout the journey, one thing keeps ticking:
24 hours.
The closer the clock gets to zero, the closer Munky gets to finding Kong — and his wife.
So good! Loved it.
