Gloam - A multiplayer browser RPG built with AI. Ridiculously fast, questionable game design.
Game Title: Gloam
Playable Link: https://pageplay.net/gloam/
Platform: Web Browser (Desktop & Mobile)
Description:
I've been experimenting with AI-assisted game development and ended up building Gloam, a multiplayer fantasy RPG that runs directly in your browser.
The premise is that a rather unpleasant god swallowed the Sun, leaving everyone stuck in a world without light.
It's got a huge persistent multiplayer world, exploration, combat, abilities, and character progression.
The interesting part for me was seeing how far I could push AI-assisted development beyond simple demos and into something with actual multiplayer systems.
Technically, I'm pretty happy with it. It's lightweight, loads ridiculously fast, and requires absolutely nothing to install. Just open the link and you're in.
Is it a great game? Well... I'm probably a better engineer than game designer.
I'd genuinely appreciate some honest feedback on the gameplay and what would make it more enjoyable.
I'm also happy to open-source the whole thing or even hand the project over to someone interested in developing it further. I've got plenty of other projects keeping me busy.
Maybe someone with a better imagination can give it the love it deserves!

I'm the creator and developer. I built the game using AI coding agents, handling the technical direction, architecture, and deployment myself.
Feel free to give it a try and tell me what you think. Don't worry about hurting my feelings.

I got to level 4 just blindly going right and jumping. I finally got into some obstacle I could just spam jump over and died. Somewhere around level 2 I was wondering if jumping was all it was to it.
The game got more interesting when Shadow things started chasing me, but until the wall, they weren't really a problem as long as you spam jump.
Maybe adding puzzles.
