GridPonder
A lightweight puzzle medium. Design elegant grid games as structured data — no code required. Play, share, and extend.
Games are defined in a declarative DSL and run by a fixed engine. A creator with Claude Code can build a playable game in minutes.
Play
Curated puzzle games in a consistent player experience. Works on iOS, Android, macOS, and in your browser. Each game is a self-contained pack that loads and runs without engine code changes.
Create
Define games as structured data using the GridPonder DSL — JSON files that describe boards, entities, rules, and goals. No programming required. A Claude Code session walks you through it.
