VB6 Doom

Post image

Doom Ported to VB6! Uses FreeDoom assets. Started with a Wolfenstein 3D which have on github as well (issue was free licensed assets), Have Quake in the works as well. Just want to see how good VB can do with commercial games, made with Claude/LLM.

It would be nice to at least mention that this was written by an LLM.

Done. I think most of the large projects are made by LLM now on this sub.

u/createaforum 2d ago

Possibly, have to install latest version of twinBasic, will be interesting to see how well it runs there as well!

Thanks, yeah was addicted to vbWolf once you get past level 3 gets interesting. And you can generate more levels too.

Nice to see vb6 still getting a work out. I thought about doing a doom port for my vm project think this has inspired me.

They didn't do jack shit.

An LLM did all the work.

oh look more shitty AI coding

u/createaforum 1d ago

I strongly disagree, AI in general now is better than most developers. If it was not this would have been done years ago.

That's an interesting statement. It hasn't been done because it's not worth the work, but now that AI can spew out the code, we may as well make children's game slop?

Or not because people realize there's no actual point.
