The problem Life of Duckie solves

Humanity was suffering from a lack of duck-based existential crises.

Now players can ponder life’s big questions, like:

"Should my duck get a job or just steal fries at the park?"
"Start an OnlyWings account"
"Become a professional "quackestor"
"Fake its own death for insurance bread"
"Invent duck NFTs ("Non-Fungible Tweets")"

My game blends "smart" fun clicker with absurd events, where every decision leads to hilarious. The real goal? Make people laugh and enjoy. Random events, mini-games, garden, and duck-themed life lessons.

Challenges I ran into

I don't know how to code.
I've been dreaming of creating a game for a long time, but the idea came to me completely spontaneously.

It was very difficult for me to start - I lacked advice, I tried so many different tools and AI.
I started writing about development and sharing my thoughts about the process (the main thread )

As I was creating this app the main problems were -

  • I broke the code several times and started over.
  • I really wanted support and advice, but I never got it. (problem not solved)
  • integration with farcaster (solved)
  • Adding content in the future and supporting the game. (problem not solved)
  • Optimisation for different devices. (solved)

I've accomplished a lot in a month, scary but I'm building.

UPD:I was able to do farcaster integration(preview thing), but now there are difficulties - authorization via farcaster, leaderboard, I overloaded the code and am fully aware of it. databases, different languages in comments in the code, as I used English, Russian, Bulgarian when communicating with AI ( may be a problem in the future)

I think if I were to start creating everything from 0 now I would create with Mini-kit, not by myself....

Tracks Applied (1)

Mini-apps

Simple mechanics (clicker-style, upgrades, unlockable skins). Farcaster integration in future.
