[formal glen]

Seems like a cool thing
If you want a list of all the public projects I'm involved in, feel free to ask

(I have quite a few)

[grand parcel]

dont mind me if I do
ill drop into ur dms later

[formal glen]

Alright

[grand parcel]

• Added a few more projects
• Worked on the backend for a bit
• Added filtering results
• Started added images of projects (going to automate this later)

Im reasonably confident I can complete the backend completely in an hour or so but ill probs do that tomorrow, and after that it's a matter of filling out a form to add a project on my end

also probs should standardize descriptions etc to avoid mixing typography (i.e. consistent punctuation) cuz im getting annoyed by it lmao

accessibilitytest stayed consistent at 92
pagespeed insights for desktop went up to 98??? which doesnt make any sense as we're loading more pictures, it should be going lower

[formal glen]

Silly

Could just be some time related thing

[grand parcel]

yeah but I didnt change anything frontend besides adding more projects and filtering
it's weird asf

im not complaining but yk

[formal glen]

Well, who knows
It could be that the hosting provider's network has less overhead at the time you reran the test

Or some JS mess just lines up better

JS is an absolute mess and I hate it

[grand parcel]

mood

[formal glen]

I guess all that matters is that it works
Let me know whenever you want the list of projects I'm involved in

[grand parcel]

will do
after the backend is properly set up imma add projects at a quicker rate
rn it's very janky to add new projects (i.e. populating db, making sure the img is in the correct size and in a specific dir, linking img to db entry, rebuilding frontend) as I made everything during the evil stream yesterday and didnt put too much thought into it

[formal glen]

Yeah, that sounds like a slight mess

[grand parcel]

that's quite the understatement trust me 😂

[tawny ibex]

I was gonna make something like this for a while

just got caught up in too much stuff ahhhhhh

[grand parcel]

yeah I decided to just crank something out during the stream and landed on this
gonna rework the backend a bit and then it should be quite robust in theory

and if people actually use it I can also track clicks and allow sorting on popularity and whatever

[tawny ibex]

is it open source or are you keeping it on the downlow for now

[grand parcel]

downlow rn, will opensource when the kinks are worked out

Neuroswarm.org - a hub of Neurosama-related projects

[tawny ibex]

👍

correction: Neuroranks is open-source

[grand parcel]

Thanks! will update asap

[grand parcel]

updated

[grand parcel]

backend updated (finally) so itll be a lot more manageable for me lmao
added some more screenshots for projects that were already indexed and gonna start reaching out / adding new projects

[formal glen]

[acoustic pagoda]

I noticed that Neuro-adventures has KotgeDev misspelled as KootgeDev

[cedar imp]

Is this specifically for stuff like integration and fan-games or is it for any kind of project

I (not biased at all) would like the legend of neuro-sama to be on it, but it's just a youtube video, although a big one.

[tawny ibex]

I'm assuming the video essay won't make it on as a proper project

but it should be added as a fun "who is neuro-sama" button or smth

[grand parcel]

Im down to add this as a project as it did nicely incorporate the community with the discord thread and all
So ill most likely opt for a card with a link to the discord thread (such as with the neurobot-1000 3d model project) and have view project redirect to the video

I do have certain reservations about youtube video's and stuff so I'd like to keep it purely to either something like fan-made music (RVC - and that's not being taken down lmao) and "big" videos with a lot of community engagement as to not flood the projects with yt stuff

I think realistically this approach to youtube videos would be like most logical
with the legend of neuro-sama I think you did a great job with allowing anyone really to give their thoughts and help create it so I feel like it's reasonably logical to see it as a community project

that being said
ill be adding more projects in the coming days as there is a loooot to index so I cant promise when ill add it

[grand parcel]

fixed

[grand parcel]

Changelog 18-02-2025

Metrics

• Accessiblity score of 92 according to accessibilitytest (-0 compared to last measurement)
• Performance rating of 94 according to pagespeed insights for desktop (-4 compared to last measurement)

Todo

• Subpages (Organize all gamejam 2023, 2024, all rvc etc. into 1 projects card that will lead to a subpage so these entries do not flood the main project index)
• Improve card loading on home page as it's currently loading everything at once
• QOL updates (change discord icon, enforce standard typography for project descriptions)
• Better sorting (i.e. being able to sort of tag)

yes indeed
literally made it in the evil stream 😂

[halcyon rain]

You have unlocked new role

[sullen heron]

new role

enjoy embed perms

[grand parcel]

[sullen heron]

i'll take a proper look when i have access to a pc, but i'm interested in the project

also you haven't included the bingo, could it be added? it's fan-made (made by me but it should be classified as a fan project) open source: https://github.com/CloudburstSys/nwero-bingo https://nwero.net

[grand parcel]

will do
...eventually (lot to index)

[sullen heron]

also i recommend putting a sort of description somewhere to describe what is original and what is fan-made

official*

brain is fried today

[grand parcel]

you can sort on official and there's a visible differentiator

[sullen heron]

i mean more describing what official means, since some could say the bingo is official in some capacity due to my mod role, but it isn't at all because in my eyes official should be something specifically made or asked for by vedal (e.g. alex's contributions and vedal's codebases)

[grand parcel]

ah true

[sullen heron]

maybe make it a hover tip? similar to what i use for icons on my personal site

[grand parcel]

yeah I think that'd be best

[sullen heron]

sounds good!

[tawny ibex]

@grand parcel I don't know what's up with your SSL cert but it certainly isn't working

(before it worked without this screen popping up)

sorry, ignore that - the wifi I'm using right now appears to be a little wonky

[umbral quest]

I agree with moving game jam stuff from year to year, I'd also have that seprate from the games that were not from either of the jams.

This'll be a nice resource once it is finished

Keep up the good work!

[tawny ibex]

I also think having a ${year} Game Jam tag is a good idea

[umbral quest]

Actually yeah, tags would be good as some are continuing to build out their games.

Can't say we are doing so for this year's entry

[tawny ibex]

It would also help so that people can discover older games instead of having them rotate out each run

If needed you can have the tags force the item to not be shown by default and only load in when they are explicitly requested by the user

[grand parcel]

I was about to be so confused

[grand parcel]

No major updates today due to time going way too fast but I did fix images, some of which werent loading
Im thinking ill finish up indexing all gamejam 2023 projects, add some from the community and then probs add subpages and filtering on tags etc. before doing gamejam 2024

[cedar imp]

You should make separate categories exclusively for the game jam projects

[cedar imp]

mb

Clearly I forgot to read that part

[grand parcel]

no worriesss

You have to change your name to blance, now.

[hexed oyster]

Yes sir

[cedar imp]

Typo fixed 🔥

[grand parcel]

WAHHAHAHAHA

epic save

yeah maybe it's not even that bad of an idea to add some functionality where anyone can propose changes

[acoustic pagoda]

Selecting the "official" and "fan-made" tags at the same time still shows the official projects. Imo these filters should either be mutually exclusive or show no results.

[grand parcel]

agreed will put it on my todo

[grand parcel]

Reworked filtering, including fixing being able to select 'opposing' filters at the same time

Finishing up gamejam 2023

Added projects

Taken from gamejam 2023:

• Neuro-Sama's Cookie Hunt
• Lost Drones
• NeuroQuest
• Neuro's Farm
• VedQuest

which concludes what ill add from gamejam 2023 rn. Exclusions were because one of the following:

• considered shitpost by me (very objective ofc - example of what I considered a shitpost )
• required a multiplayer server which no longer functions (didnt think i'd have to consider this when I started tbh)
• crashed during testing, with comments (/replies) full of the same issue, left unresolved

Changed the tag "gamejam" to "gamejam_2023" as suggested

Todo

• Subpages (Organize all gamejam 2023, 2024, all rvc etc. into 1 projects card that will lead to a subpage so these entries do not flood the main project index)
• Better sorting (i.e. being able to sort of tag)
• Official tag tooltip
• more entries from either gamejam 2024 or discord projects (dk which one im going to do first yet)
• Either update the view count for LIFE in the hero or implement some logic to get the viewcount (dk if I feel like bothering with yt API or if ill do that at a later stage, not rly something important)

Maybe fun to keep track of amount of projects indexed: 54 so far

okay who ddossed
there is literally no value to ddossing this 😂

website was badly reachable for about an hour this morning as antiddos was doing its job

[formal glen]

That seems a little bit dumb of someone

[tawny ibex]

why the fuck would you ddos

like why

[grand parcel]

Changelog 28-02-2025

Implementing subpages & some backend changes

Subpages testing?

I added the subpage for Gamejam 2023 and looking for some feedback here. Any improvements I can make? Also, any suggestions for the image I can use for the card?

Some backend changes

DDOS yesterday was mitigated by the more 'standard' anti-ddos system by the datacenter im hosting from, moving behind cloudflare.

• another layer of ddos protection
• better caching, of 1.05k requests in the past ~24h (obv after ddos) 86.75% could be cached

Todo

• Better sorting
• Official tag tooltip
• more entries from either gamejam 2024 or discord projects (dk which one im going to do first yet)
• Either update the view count for LIFE in the hero or implement some logic to get the viewcount (dk if I feel like bothering with yt API or if ill do that at a later stage, not rly something important)

Maybe fun to keep track of amount of projects indexed: 54 so far
for anyone looking this thread; https://neuroswarm.org/

maybye remove back to home or put it below all the project cards given the home button is literally right there in navbar? then again, navbar is static so maybe remove back button completely?

should probs also add only load 4 rows & use a load more button in subpage to avoid longer waittimes, although card images load lazily so in theory it shouldnt be that much of an issue

[tepid citrus]

added our last year game

[grand parcel]

Changelog 01-03-2025

QOL Adjustments

Gamejam 2023 subpage

• Removed back to home button
• only load 4 rows initially + add a load more button

Home

• Add a "Showing <x amount> projects" in projects section, changing based on filteres & accounting for subpages
• Subpages now show or dont show based on filters & depending on what projects are nested in them, instead of always being visible

Other stuff

• Added project; Market Mastery on request of @fair venture
• Fixed a missing view project button for "Lost her Mind"
• Tweaking caching settings

Todo

• Better sorting
• Official tag tooltip
• more entries from either gamejam 2024 or discord projects (dk which one im going to do first yet)

Changelog 02-03-2025

Featured section

Featured section

• Carousel idea shit & all, during a stream being live this changes to also link to the stream + recommend playing bingo cuz it's just based

Other stuff

• changed more cache settings
• Added nwero.net project
• Added some backend stuff for tracking twitch livestreams, I could in the future also link other streamers such as anny etc. but im heavily debating this as i'd need to draw a line of who I do and don't track + it's just less relevant? may go down this road though dk yet

Todo

• Better sorting
• Official tag tooltip
• more entries
• Either update the view count for LIFE in the hero or implement some logic to get the viewcount (dk if I feel like bothering with yt API or if ill do that at a later stage, not rly something important)

for anyone looking this thread; https://neuroswarm.org/

also yes I will change the arrows of the carousel later as they're clipped into text but I cant be bothered rn

[tawny ibex]

I would advise against a twitch livestream tracker beyond whether or not they are live

[grand parcel]

yeah I wasnt planning that regardless
it's just checking live status to know if I should push the nwero bingo into the featured section rn

[tawny ibex]

oh ic

Changelog 03-03-2025

Gamejam 2023 redesign + minor fixes

Gamejam 2023 redesign

• Added a hero, icon/thumbnail for the game jam 2023 is [this](#1345398396273561762 message) from @white folio

Minor fixes

• Adding the Neuro's Game Jam 2023 item caused the calculation for the amount of cards to display to fuck up, meaning you could see 4 rows + 1 card before the load more button which just looked dumb. This is fixed so you'll just see 4 rows before the button
• Carousel buttons slightly moved to avoid clipping in text or art
• Carousel auto-rotates now
• Typo in site description fixed

Todo

• Better sorting
• Official tag tooltip
• more entries
• Either update the view count for LIFE in the hero or implement some logic to get the viewcount (dk if I feel like bothering with yt API or if ill do that at a later stage, not rly something important)

The Neurowiki link on the page seems to lead to the wrong site. When clicked it leads to Neuro-book .com instead of www .neurosama .info

going to update this again soon
uni be uni'ing so ive had little time on my hands for sideprojects like this one

[cedar imp]

Peak

[tawny ibex]

I was gonna make a separate website for specifically monthly community showcase projects but I think it makes more sense to have it in here, would that be possible? I can have a hand in updating it monthly if need be

Also is there any reqs to having projects be placed on that site?

(besides it being community-based ofc)

[void forge]

This. I think having the fan project all in one place would be nice

[lyric narwhal]

@grand parcel Here is the official page for the Evil/Neuro Space project. It was the project were we put the fumos in space for Evil's birthday. (and billboards) If you would like to feel free to incorporate an entry into your site!
https://our.neuros.click/space/

[rocky pecan]

neuro-rants seems to no longer exist?

[tawny ibex]

@formal glen you do neuro rants, right?

[formal glen]

Switched to Linux, setup still ongoing
I'm gonna rewrite the entire Neuro rants and add a lot more functionality to the software

It's nothing that crazy, Windows just got an update and died

[tawny ibex]

Did you run Neuro rants off your main PC?

[formal glen]

Yes, I don't have other servers

Either way, it'll take some time, I've been having to set up a ton of things recently, so it'll take a while before I get to that part

[tame current]

Does someone remember that guy who wrote down in a thread every fictional character Neuro made up?

[cedar imp]

@grand parcel still busy?

[vague schooner]

Yoooooo can you add https://neurosama.place

[tame current]

Suggestion:
For each project add a "current status/version" section, a "in search of"/"things needed" section and a "required knowledge/tools/resources for contributing" section.
Then we could search a project by typing keywords from some of these sections.
(if this isn't a thing already)

[tawny ibex]

would probably be a good idea

@grand parcel are you still too busy? idm contributing to it while you are busy and i think other people have the same thought

[tawny ibex]

rip neuroswarm

[errant jacinth]

anyway if someone want to own a more formal domain for your swarm project
<yours>.neurosama.chat
you can send an email to me: [e-mail] (plz don't pin me in discord because i'm unable to respond promptly)

[tawny ibex]

???

bro is advertising in another project

[umbral quest]

cringe tbh

[tawny ibex]

also wtfdym more formal domain

neuroswarm.org is pretty formal

[errant jacinth]

but as u can see that he HASN'T opened up subdomain applications

and nobody knows where he is
so i'm here to give another choice

[tawny ibex]

What are you on?

his intentions aren't to offer a subdomain service like yours, and that's ok

doesn't mean you get to advertise your subdomain service for whatever you desire

[tame current]

So... Is this dead dead? Isn't it possible for no one else to revive this?

[tawny ibex]

I can try to reverse this but I'm not gonna spend my time doing this

[vague schooner]

Can we add Neurosama.place

[tame current]

when this site comes back to life

[tawny ibex]

I just realised michelo left neurocord,

and the site was taken down too,

[tame current]

[obsidian harbor]

oh no

is there any archive of this project?

i can try to bring them back

[tawny ibex]

no

[obsidian harbor]

i checked the archive.org the snapshots are all blank

not really good

what's the tech stack of this website

[tawny ibex]

check your dms

[tame current]

👀

[tawdry lava]

[tame current]

I will keep waiting here, never lose hope on this

[fiery bison]

lost memory

I wanted to go there to find a site

[tame current]

Has any one made/does anyone have a list of all projects?

Before I do it

[obsidian harbor]

As I know not

we'd complete website first

do some vibe coding

[tame current]

I've done a Google spreadsheet

[tame current]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YtS_zkA4-1ZQG_079PwsYNwJylClfN3XAzuf_H16j9o/edit?usp=sharing

@tawny ibex would this be useful?

that actually took as little as I expected, fortunately

[tame current]

@formal glen do you know if there are other projects outside of #1336777692070023271 ? As in old ones in #1095948590947500113

[formal glen]

I am uncertain

[umbral quest]

Immediately standing out to me is lack of the game jams

I wouldn't expect one to grab every game off of those three events but at least note their existance.

[tame current]

Do they count in this? 🤔
Feel like that's a different list.
Is there a page for each game jam?

[umbral quest]

If your goal is to replicate this site, then they did add the jams

diffrent pages yeah

or was it search filters?

[tame current]

Like itch.io pages?

[umbral quest]

Nah they included links to the itch.io pages on the site

[tame current]

I mean, I guess that's no effort, as long as those pages still exists.

[umbral quest]

Of course

They very much still exist

[tame current]

For now I'm just writing down projects that are difficult to find.

[umbral quest]

[tame current]

Anyway, if anyone knows any old projects not present in #1336777692070023271 let me know

[tame current]

Any kind of projects (check the types at the right of the spreadsheet)

[tawny ibex]

yea def

[tame current]

Maybe next snn video could talk about this

[tawny ibex]

maybe not, idt it's like super presentable

also I heard google sheets is ass on mobile

[tame current]

Just as in making it know that the website is dead and there are efforts to bring it back.
I mean, I don't know what gets put in these videos these days.

[tawny ibex]

not very open efforts but yes, but we never featured neuroswarm and it was long dead in dev activity since snn recaps started

[tame current]

My efforts of temporarily cataloguing all the projects in a spreadsheet are instead open, so if anyone wants to check (mostly finding some missing ones and updating categories) you are welcome to 👍.
-# (just leaving this here)

[tawny ibex]

that will be very helpful ty

[tame current]

I mean I basically just used a js snippet on the project channel to get those strings, copying them into a csv file and importing them into Google spreadsheet. Took less than an hour to set up files and scripts and less than 5 min to run them.

[tawny ibex]

cool

[tame current]

I might still be a noob, but I'm addicted to to automate random things with snippets lol

[tawny ibex]

If you know more projects outside of #1336777692070023271 or this discord it would help me.

[solemn lagoon]

hmmm lets see

[solemn lagoon]

theres no machine love nor the space project

[obsidian harbor]

currently work in some backend

hope we can bring them back before April Fools day

[tame current]

Hmm, I'll just note things down then see what I can add.

[obsidian harbor]

i may need to add them manually

the old site's db has gone

[tame current]

Surely there is a way to convert a Google spread sheet into whatever database you want?

[solemn lagoon]

there is one, and thats downloading it as csv

[obsidian harbor]

i decide to use sqlite for db

i think csv is the best way

[tame current]

Ok, I basically wrote down the game jams

[tame current]

I did use csv myself, though I don't think the files I already have are good

If you ever want help exporting things feel free to ask me

[obsidian harbor]

we have 8 sections for it

maybe need some convert

[tame current]

Hmmmm 🤔
Is this something you can tell me here or do we need to move in DMs?

[obsidian harbor]

dm
