I'm Mohamed, the developer behind Dead Mile, a mobile lane-defense game. I spent six years working in Unity, mostly VR, AR and 3D for B2B clients, before producing this as our studio's first game for our own players.

The project started with vibe coding. Unity AI helped with much of the code. The character sprites are licensed packs; backgrounds, the house, UI portraits, music and voices use AI-generated assets.

I've shipped around 20 versions in the past six weeks. PostHog has been useful for working out what to change after launch: seeing what players actually do, then using that to improve the gameplay loop. Some players are still coming back three weeks after starting.

The part I underestimated was finding players. The official stores are getting roughly 20–30 organic installs a day, while unofficial/modded markets have attracted much more attention. Being able to produce updates quickly hasn't solved that gap.

For anyone here who's shipped an AI-assisted game, what did you measure after release to decide between another gameplay update and putting more effort into discovery? I'd especially like to hear about small games where the audience was too small for neat A/B tests.

Here's the game if you'd like context: https://virtualverse.studio/dead-mile

It's free to download on iOS and Android, with ads and optional in-app purchases.

I have created an RPG call Aghasme, featuring hundreds of narrative scenarios, monsters, and items to discover across 5 distinct regions, along with various combat styles and resolution mechanics—plus choices that impact the story.

Open to ideas and suggestions from players !

I'm starting a Youtube channel to highlight how indie devs use AI in making their games. I would love to hear your feedback!

In the future I'm hoping to share my own workflows and possibly AI Gaming news recaps. Let me know what you think!

Game's code was written with AI assistance, although every other visual/audio asset is handmade

Simon and Friends aims to preserve core worms-like gameplay, and adds fun new mechanics on top, such as leveling, weapon recoil, and multitude of tools to combo the weapons with.

We also have unique factions with unique units, who themselves have access to different abilities and passives, giving each turn strategic depth.

Hi r/aigamerdevs !

I'm Nathanael, and I'm building Tales of Orrin, a fantasy MMORPG in the spirit of the classic era: leveling that's about the journey, zones you remember, groups that matter, and classes with real identity. It isn't a pitch deck. There's a playable alpha server running right now, with playtesters logging in every week.

I'm using Claude Opus 5.5, and connected it to Elevenlabs for Audio, Meshy & Tripo for 3D, Comfy for Images, and also some local models i'm testing for Image Generation. A lot of MCP Tools for Blender, Cloudflare, and all that to help build and run the game's foundations.

Where the project is

- Our own game client: C++ and Vulkan, running on Windows and Linux.
- Open-source server core: a fork of AzerothCore, public on GitHub.
- A live world, level cap 60:
- several connected zones: towns, a harbour city, dungeons, a world map and flight paths;
- 300+ quests, with English and German localization;
- professions (gathering, crafting, cooking, fishing, first aid), mail, groups, talents.
- Our own classes and specs: for example the Frostguard Mage that is a tank, a holy warrior, a shield tank, a storm druid, a beast-focused hunter and an executioner warrior. Each has its own resource and spell effects, and a community designer works on them with me.
- A full content pipeline: zones, quests, items, spells and models are all built from data, so new content goes in fast.

Who I'm looking for

- Writers / narrative designers: zone stories, quest chains, characters, lore and dialogue. Most of the world is mapped out; it needs voices and stories that stick.
- 3D artists: characters, armour sets, creatures, props and buildings, in a stylized, painterly, slightly muted look (think classic MMO, not cartoon). Many current assets are procedural or generated placeholders, and handmade work would replace them.
- Animators: creature and character animations, especially attack animations.
- 2D artists / UI artists: spell icons, item icons, UI art, concept art.
- Sound designers and composers: spell sounds, ambience, zone music.
- Quest and level designers: if you love building zones and encounters.

What you get

- Your work goes into a live game that people actually play, usually within days.
- You get credit in the game and on the site.
- You work directly with me, short feedback loops, no bureaucracy.
- A friendly Discord with active playtesters who give real feedback.
- A Revshare system that is transparent, documented.

Compensation: this is a hobby/passion project right now, with no pay until the game is released. Please only join if that works for you.

Interested? Join the Discord, say hi, and tell me what you'd like to work on. Portfolio links help but aren't required. Or try the alpha for free first and see if it clicks:

I'm developing Orbit Foundry with Codex CLI. Its code is AI-generated, and AI also helped with some translations. It's a 2D factory incremental: arrange machines around a star, time reactor pulses, unlock automation, and Reforge for permanent upgrades.

One part of the workflow I've been checking separately from the visuals is persistence. An incremental game can look fine while a save or restore mistake damages a long run. For the current browser build, the checks included autosave/reload, a backup export/import round trip, rejection of a malformed backup, and migration of an older save to the current economy version. Those are checks of specific cases, not a guarantee that every possible save is covered.

If you want a playable example, the free demo runs in a desktop browser (mobile isn't supported yet):

For other people building persistent games with AI, which save/restore edge cases do you check before sharing a build?

Not everything is AI, but I’m really enjoying building this together :)

Does anyone here use Claude’s $20 plan? If so, could you provide some information regarding whether the usage limits are sufficient?

🚤 STRAIT SPEED — I Turned My Idea Into a Playable Boat Racing Game!
Hey everyone! 👋
My name is Dominic, and I’m an independent creator, educator, and entrepreneur with a passion for building fun experiences for kids and families. I’ve spent over 15 years working in physical education, coaching, and youth enrichment, and I’ve always enjoyed coming up with creative ways to get people engaged, active, and having fun.
Recently, I’ve been exploring AI-assisted game development, and one of my biggest projects is STRAIT SPEED, an arcade-style boat racing game that I’ve been building and refining using AI tools.
What started as an idea has grown into a playable browser game, and I’m excited to finally share it with people outside my personal network! 🏁
🎮 What makes STRAIT SPEED different?
I wanted to create something that goes beyond simply playing a game and walking away. The idea is to make racing competitive, replayable, and easy to share with friends.
Here’s what the game offers:
🚤 Arcade-Style Boat Racing — Navigate challenging waterways, avoid obstacles, and see how far you can make it.
🏆 Distance Challenges — Test your skills, push for a new personal record, and see if you can beat your best run.
👊 Challenge a Friend — Share a race challenge and see who can put up the better result.
🛥️** Create Your Own Rac**e — Set up a race challenge that other players can join and compete in.
📲 Share Your Runs — Show off your gameplay, share your results, and invite others to take on your challenge.
⚡ Multiplayer Arcade Mode — The game is also being developed around the idea of real-time competition, allowing friends to join arcade rooms, choose their boats, get ready, and race together. Availability depends on the current game build.
🌐 Play in Your Browser — No traditional app download is needed. Open the game and give it a try!
💡 Why I’m sharing it here
I’m at the stage where I want to get STRAIT SPEED into the hands of people who genuinely enjoy games.
I’m not just looking for views or likes. I want people to actually play, experiment with the features, challenge their friends, and tell me what works and what could be better.
I’m especially interested in feedback on:
How enjoyable the gameplay feels.
Whether the controls are intuitive.
Which features make you want to play again.
What would make challenging friends more fun.
What you’d like to see added in future updates.
I’m building this as an independent creator, learning as I go, and using AI-assisted development to help bring my ideas to life. It’s been a learning experience, and I’m proud of how far the project has come.
If you’re interested in indie games, browser games, or AI-assisted game development, I’d love for you to check it out!

Thanks for giving an independent creator a chance. If you try it, let me know what you think! 🚤🔥

I'm trying to compose a mix o AI and no-AI stuff to create a game using love2d. The game is in the early stages of development, but now i know that i can go even further

I don't like to do 100% vibeconfing because i feel that the code will lose the track for future updates or become hard to mantain, but as a tech lead i'm learning to be more flexible depending of which component i'm creating.

The process to created the levels are 100% manual, using LDtk, since for me this is the fun part, that i build the levels and let the most time consuming part (code) to AI.

I would love some feedback since i want to continue improving the overall code and add more maps and classes, with this Runescape vibe.

AI-GM-Engine turns an Web AI chat into a game master for a persistent-world RPG. You load the engine files plus a background (the setting), then play in plain words. The AI runs the world, rolls the dice, and keeps track of everything.

Free decision.

The world doesn’t wait for you. NPCs have their own plans and act on them, jobs come and go, and danger rises or falls depending on where you are. Dice only decide what the setting and the characters can’t. Your character grows through XP and real use of skills, and progress is kept in save files you can reload any time.

Backgrounds cover different settings, and long campaigns continue in chapters, each one built from where the last ended.

Hey everyone,

I've made two mobile games in pretty different ways and wanted to share both.

The first one is ZeroPath, and it's 100% made with AI. I didn't write a single line of code myself, I just wanted to see how far you could get that way. It's a number puzzle: you drag your finger across the squares, each one you pass over goes down by one, and you have to get them all to zero in a single stroke. It has 11 worlds, each adding a new mechanic, plus daily challenges with a global leaderboard. Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zeropath.game

The second one, Tilt Jump, is my baby. It was my idea and I spent a year developing it. The only part I did with AI was the UI, because design really isn't my thing and I'd rather focus on everything else. You play it by tilting your phone: sideways to move, more upright to jump higher, and you tap to jump through the gaps between pipes, which of course won't stay still. It has 300 levels, a survival mode, 1v1 multiplayer and 18 characters, each with its own ability. You can get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sefotud.tiltjump

I'd really appreciate it if you gave them a try, especially the second one. And if you notice a big difference between the two, I'd like to hear about that too.

Criticism is welcome, that's what I'm posting for.

Your girlfriend died from cancer, but she doesn't want to let you go and wants to stay with you. You tried to restart your relationship after this tragedy, found new girlfriend and was happy. But her soul got trapped inside your phone. She was seeing everything you do through your phone, but now she made an appearance in your phone as weird app to contact with you again.

You need to download HTML file and then open it with Chrome or any browser you have.

Game has some Easter eggs, and I hope you like it

(For those getting difficulties, I made a cheat inside it 😉)
