Build Arcade: play Asteroids while your app builds and earn credits

A mini asteroid-shooting game now appears while your app is being built — and clearing waves earns you real OverSkill credits (when enabled for your account).

  • Play Asteroids in the editor while waiting for your build to finish
  • Earn credits for each wave you clear — the further you get, the more you earn
  • The game disappears automatically once your preview is ready

Comp codes (free access grants) now work for your customers

  • Your gifted customers will receive their access code

Your dashboard loads dramatically faster

The app dashboard was running hundreds of unnecessary database lookups on every page load, causing multi-second delays. It now loads in a fraction of the time.

  • Dashboard page load dropped from 4,600ms+ to under 100ms in most cases
  • Editor chat history also loads faster, especially for long conversations

Your dashboard loads much faster

The apps dashboard was running hundreds of unnecessary database lookups on every page load, causing multi-second delays. It now loads in a fraction of the time.

  • Dashboard now runs under 20 database lookups instead of 400+
  • Noticeably faster load times in the editor too
Fixed Link

Logging out now fully signs you out everywhere

If your app was accessible from both its friendly address and its overskill.app address, signing out on one didn't sign you out on the other. Now a single logout clears your session completely across all addresses.

  • Logout now works completely, regardless of which app URL you used to sign in
Fixed Link

Transactional emails now show the correct OverSkill logo

Emails sent from OverSkill (like build notifications and support replies) were showing a blurry, broken, or missing logo. All emails now display the clean, sharp OverSkill brand mark.

  • Build notification and support emails now show the correct logo
  • Sharp rendering on retina and standard screens

The AI builder now proactively suggests audio features

When you describe something that could benefit from voice narration, sound effects, or background music, the AI now suggests built-in audio options without you having to ask.

  • Describe 'read aloud', 'narration', 'sound effects', or 'background music' and the AI offers audio automatically
  • Works for meditation apps, language tools, games, accessibility features, and more
Improved Link

AI now proactively suggests adding audio to your app

The AI builder will now proactively suggest built-in audio features — like text-to-speech, sound effects, or background music — whenever you describe a use case that would benefit from it, without you needing to ask.

  • AI suggests audio features for narration, accessibility, meditation, and more
  • Works the same way the AI already suggests auth and file storage
Fixed Link

Buyers are now guided back to your app after purchase

Anonymous buyers completing a checkout were landing on Whop or a blank page instead of your app. The post-purchase flow now correctly brings them into your app to create an account.

  • Buyers land inside your app after purchase, not on a third-party page
  • The signup form pre-fills with the email used at checkout so buyers can get in immediately

AI won't suggest video uploads — only screenshots

The editor AI was incorrectly asking users to send screen recordings, then admitting it couldn't view them. It now only asks for still screenshots, which it can actually use.

  • The AI correctly asks for screenshots instead of videos
  • You can share a screenshot to show the AI what you're seeing or what you want
Fixed Link

The AI no longer suggests sending screen recordings

The AI was sometimes asking users to send a 15–30 second screen recording for help — then saying it couldn't actually view video. It now consistently asks for still screenshots, which it can actually use.

  • AI now asks for screenshots instead of unviewable screen recordings
  • More accurate and helpful guidance when sharing your screen

Play Asteroids while your app builds

A fun optional minigame now appears over the preview pane while your app is building — play a round of Asteroids to pass the time. It hides automatically the moment your preview is ready.

  • Play Asteroids while waiting for your app to build
  • Game disappears automatically when your preview loads
  • Earn credits for clearing waves
