Summary
During the week of September 14–20, 2026, activity was dominated by ingesting Player Fit data and creating project setups for Jetpack Zombie Territory and Merge Jetpack Zombie. The team did not meet the Weekly North Star goal, as evidence shows no fresh Poki playtests were submitted for the four designated focus games.
Highlights
Review imported Player Fit metrics for Jetpack Zombie Territory (build003) showing 128.4s average session time. Track 34 domain events establishing separate project setups for Jetpack Zombie Territory and Merge Jetpack Zombie.
Risks
Address missed Weekly North Star targets as no fresh Poki playtests were submitted for the four primary candidate games. Resolve Matchy Cat build015 performance trailing build011 baseline due to early Match-3 rejection and control friction. Mitigate Mine Quest's low 49.2% gameplay start rate caused by hidden cutscene skip controls and pre-splash loading delays.
Follow-ups
Analyze Matchy Cat and Color Cat Care recordings side by side to decide whether to park Matchy Cat or attempt onboarding fixes. Instrument Mine Quest first-run checkpoints and simplify cutscene skip UX to improve gameplay entry. Submit My Pet Shop baseline for Poki Web Fit evaluation and prepare CrazyGames builds for Deep Web Idle and Money Tree.

Planning
Proposed North Star
Validate core mechanic baselines for experiment-ready titles while finalizing first-run instrumentation for Mine Quest and Color Cat Care.
Success signals
Build and launch Poki test for Feed the Cat Food Sort baseline. Execute Royal Cooking faithful baseline test for Breakfast Cooking Time. Run aggressive opening busy party test for Peggy's Party. Complete early level-pacing experiment setup for Color Cat Care. Define and instrument smallest first-run funnel test for Mine Quest.
Not this week
Do not reopen or modify parked Matchy Cat code; focus on new Food Sort branch. Do not add complex Patience or meta loops to Color Cat Care before level pacing diagnosis. Do not redesign Mine Quest gameplay loop prior to first-run funnel instrumentation. Do not expand Peggy's Party scope beyond the aggressive opening test.
Recommended actions
Approve Feed the Cat Food Sort baseline build creation for Poki submission. Approve Breakfast Cooking Time Royal Cooking baseline build for playtesting. Approve Peggy's Party aggressive busy opening prototype update. Approve Color Cat Care level-pacing experiment design for human review. Approve Mine Quest first-run funnel instrumentation plan.
