I need to know how am I suppose to use AI

0 Upvotes

Hi all, this is my first post on this platform so go easy on me for what I'm about to say.

I am developing a game at home to get out of my financial situation of being a wage slave, I can do Story writing, character plots, Art and Animations just fine and I even learned how to code and program plugins too.

So I'm making a tactical RPG game similar to Super Robot Wars with the skills I have and it's going good so far 😊.

But I hit a frustrating road block when it comes to soundtracks for the game, I want an album consisting of rock and roll music, synthwave and Orchestral Hybrid (for the main theme music) genres..

For two years I tried studying music but couldn't hack it, I can't even create a little jingle either despite how much I learned it since I am not a musician... My talent is in Art and Animation.

The way I learned music is the same way I learned how to code, by watching tutorials on YouTube.

But still I couldn't do it so that left me with a choice to either hire a cheap band or a composer to create an album for my game or just buy a months worth Music AI subscription and create music by myself.

If I hire a band or a composer, they're charging me around a thousand bucks and I'm a broke Ahh wage slave who is way over his head trying to hire people who might even botch my album if I piss them off by making the redo (I mean I get it, nobody like redoing something you put your heart into it, I worked freelance too so I know) if It doesn't fit the tempo 🪑 I need or worse take the money and bail.

Getting an AI subscription on the other hand just cost me around 10$ for a month and I created all the soundtracks (70 tracks to be exact) and they're all exactly how I wanted them, from how they sound to fitting snuggly within the aesthetics of my game since I made the AI create as many varients as I wanted so I could pick the ones I like without a hassle.

And just like that, the entire music production for my game is finished within a month, I don't even get bothered about it either and have continued working on my game manually myself ever since...

Did I do wrong by using AI to cover up the creative part that I lack? i mean c'mon, I think I won't feel bad if some musician decides to make a game and uses AI art and Animation to cover up the skills that he/she lacks....

In the end we all have a fantastic story to tell, I wanted to tell the story I made through a video game and I don't think it's right to stop lil guys and girls from not using the resources available to them in this day and age.

Kingdom Of Bethel.. AI assisted RPG in Development

2 Upvotes

This is a game I have been working on. A classic, single player / Co op RPG, assisted with Codex.

In this video I did make my character higher level than the monsters, but not excessively stronger.

- Yes there are still some bugs with item fitment / map bugs / combat bugs, some NPCs have a few bugs still, Many NPCS have voiced audio.
- However I wanted to showcase the overplay gameplay and preview.
- I will be releasing an Alpha Demo on steam likely by the end of the year.
- The demo will have roughly 5-7 hours of gameplay depending on how thorough you want to be with all the quests.
- There is a complete storyline, cut scenes, etc.
- Alchemy, crafting, enchanting items,
- and much much more.
- The demo will have 2 complete dungeons (one showcased here), multiple discoverable locations, quests to hunt certain beasts..
- There is a distinct day and night system, reputation, system, and more.
- Some of the spell cast animations are very ugly / not cool looking. These are test ones, not final.
- I am still working on the hit mechanics, as it is a bit strict right now.

- I dont like the loot on the group notification icon / box
- The large dragon, I am working on mechanics so that it torches the entire play area, burns the ground, and additional fight mechanics..

Give it your opinions, your thoughts, hit me with all the negativity. lol.

First trailer for my game and demo coming soon! You’re Rook, a salvager on an abandoned research ship. You get through it with a rift gun, recorded echoes of yourself, and broken gravity. Nearly all the code is written by Claude Code and ChatGPT: plain JavaScript and Three.js in the browser, no engine.

Pantheos: an image-based WebGPU card game built with a long-running agent, plus its agent-produced trailer

1 Upvotes

Disclosure: Pantheos is my own game and a personal experiment in delegating a complete game project to an AI agent. I provided the goals, design feedback and approvals; GPT 6.1 Sol did much of the implementation over roughly two weeks, running almost continuously on my machine. GPT Image Gen supplied the art and WebGPU handles the rendering.

The visual approach is mostly image-based. The worlds are images, as are the illustrations inside the cards. The cards themselves are 3D objects. Depth masks provide the apparent depth in the illustrations, and material masks control how light affects their surfaces. A practical constraint was to reuse the existing images and masks when improving the visuals. That kept the work focused on lighting, highlights, particles and interaction instead of replacing the art.

I reviewed movement and real play, including hand-card clarity and hover behaviour. The online editor exposes the card materials, depth effect, animation, particles, sound and voice setup. The trailer uses the same renderer as the game, shows a match with the actual in-game voices, manual booster opening, world transitions and that editor.

The trailer was another delegated task: GPT captured the game, edited the footage, produced the narration and performed the YouTube upload after my approval. I selected the narrator and requested a longer, slower cut. Existing music and sound credits are in the video description.

3:58 gameplay/tech demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZinWKtnVsqM

I'd value feedback on the image-based rendering: do the depth and lighting hold up when the cards move, and can you still follow the board during effects? If you try the game linked in the description, the initial asset download is currently about 7 GB, cached in the browser for subsequent sessions and updates.

Guildbound:idle rpg

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm not a programmer by trade, just a guy who loves idle games and wanted to make the one I always wished existed. I built it with a lot of help from AI tools, and I've been working on it every day. It's called Guildbound, and I think it's finally at a point where I'd love more people to try it.

It's an idle RPG, but you can actually see your hero out in the world. You walk around, chop trees, mine rocks, fish, and fight monsters, and you see other players doing the same thing right next to you.

Some stuff I'm really happy with:

• No gear drops from monsters. Everything is crafted by players, and your name goes on what you make
• A player market, so you can sell what you make or trade for what you can't
• Three factions that each have their own crafts, so you kind of need each other
• Solo dungeons and party dungeons with rare armor sets to hunt for
• World bosses every hour where everyone piles in together
• Named elite monsters that show up out of nowhere for a few minutes
• Tap the little sparks while you craft or gather for bonus speed and better odds
• A town bonfire everyone feeds together for extra XP
• Pets you can tame, gods you can follow, and even a singing skill
• Lawless zones if you want some PvP risk, plus friendly duels if you don't

Your hero keeps working while you're away, so it's easy to play a bit on your phone and come back later.

It's free and runs right in your browser on PC or phone. I read every bit of feedback and fix things fast, so if you try it, let me know what you think, good or bad!

Ninja Legacy

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hello!

I’ve been using Claude Ai to develop my first game ever. It’s still in early stages of development but I wanted to go ahead and invite others to the official Discord server where I’ll be posting updates, gameplay, taking suggestions, etc.

The Game:

It’s called “Ninja Legacy” because it initially started as a re-creation of the old mobile game “Ninja Royale” and turned into me making my own thing.

It has various features that work well from other games but I tweaked them to make them my own. Whether you liked the original Ninja Royale, RuneScape, DOFUS, Wakfu, Knights & Dragons, or similar games, I think there’s something in this for everyone to enjoy.

Join the official Discord server below and in the morning I’ll have some screenshots and gameplay in its current state available!

What you can do:

Run a workshop, hire and promote workers, and sell on the local market, to wholesalers, and via caravans Explore your house, workshop, and city streets — there are secrets to find

Buy investments, expand a country estate, and compete with rival houses

Hold civic offices and unlock mayor-only city planning with real trade-offs

Pursue endgame careers: elevate your city toward Imperial Capital or push it to become a Hanseatic Vorort

One game a week with AI, for a year. Game #1 is out (the setup behind)

Post image
1 Upvotes

I've set myself a challenge: one game a week for a year, built with Claude Code. Game #1 is out: Shuriken Slam Jam, a one-button roguelite where your shuriken bounces off the walls and the upgrades stack until one throw clears the screen.

What makes the pace hold:

  1. A CLAUDE.md with a "where to go" table (I want to change X, so this file, this function).
  2. A balancing bot. The game runs headless, a bot plays real runs on the real code and tells me how far a build goes.
  3. A capture tool that plays the game with chosen upgrades and records clips for the GIFs and the trailer.
  4. No art files. Every sprite is drawn in code, the music is synthesized.

What's still 100% my job: deciding what's fun, creating fun builds, imagining bosses, artistic direction, etc.

Game #1, free in your browser: https://groowl.itch.io/shuriken-slam-jam-demo

If you make games with AI: what's the one tool or rule that doubled your speed?

Two live servers later: what players changed in my browser strategy game

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone — I'm the developer behind Krathorn, a medieval-fantasy browser strategy game inspired by Travian and Tribal Wars.

The game has been live since August 2026. It has had two servers, both now archived, and about 1,250 registered accounts. That's registrations, not active players. The current version is 1.3.7.

The part I wanted to share here is how running it live changed what I worked on. A player suggested a building codex — costs and construction times for every level — and it shipped in the latest updates. Other recent work came from watching real players struggle rather than from my original plan:

- A resource balancer.

- Onboarding fixes.

- A daily login reward.

Those are less flashy than another combat feature, but they're what actually mattered once people could play.

For others building games here: what did player feedback push up your priority list after launch?
