**Game Title:** Slow Beads – a no-timer fuse-bead game where ironing the beads is the best part
**Playable Link:** https://slowbeads.niceday-app.com
**Platform:** Browser (no install)
**Description:**
Hi! I'm the solo developer of Slow Beads, a cozy browser game about fuse beads (Perler/Hama style).
Most bead games are about filling colors fast with boosters. I wanted the opposite: place beads one at a time, then lay down ironing paper and drag the iron across to watch each bead melt together. No timers, no fail states, no energy.
**What's in it:**
- 29 patterns (seasonal ones too) + turn your own photo into a pattern (processed locally, never uploaded)
- Ironing with steam and sound, rain/fireplace/café ambience
- Finished pieces become wall art, keychains, and coasters for your little house
- A balcony garden, a 20-second tea ritual, and a bedtime mode that fades to rain sounds
- Export a numbered pattern card + color list to make it with real beads
Instead of a score, it tracks "minutes spent slow-beading."
**Accounts and saving:** Your progress is saved in your browser, no account needed. Signing in with Google is optional and adds cloud save plus friends, likes and a leaderboard (those are brand new, so it's quiet in there for now).
**Ads:** Optional rewarded videos can give bonus buttons (in-game currency). There are never ads while you place or iron beads.
Available in English, Japanese, Korean and Chinese.

I'd love feedback, especially on how the ironing feels and whether placing beads on mobile is comfortable.
