Make a game with AI: the 12 games we made, and how

Can AI make a game for you?

Yes, and how depends on the size of the game. For a small one-screen game, one prompt in Claude Code is enough: our phone game guide makes one in five minutes. For a 3D game with levels or online play, no single prompt does it. We write a brief, let Claude split it into small tickets, and give the tickets to a coding agent one at a time, with tests after each. That is how we made Capybara Kart in 16 hours.

What you can make

Everything below runs in a phone's browser from a link: one-thumb arcade games, block and traffic puzzles, 3D runners and racers, and online games where you play friends through a room code. Nothing to install: a link opens the game. What AI does not do for you is decide what is fun. You still play every build and say what feels wrong.

How we build them

Every game starts as a one-page brief: the game in a few lines, the controls, the art style, and numbers for "done", such as how big the download may be and how smooth it must run on a mid-range phone. Then five tools, in this order:

1. 1

   Claude Code with Claude Opus plans the game. It turns our brief into a plan and a list of small tickets, each with the files to make, the numbers to hit and the tests that prove it is done.

2. 2

   OpenAI Codex coding agents build it, one ticket at a time. Each ticket becomes one pull request that has to pass the tests before the next one starts.

3. 3

   Claude Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1 improve the look and feel once it plays: the menus, the driving, the camera, the sounds, the fixes after we play it ourselves.

4. 4

   Blender makes the 3D models, from Python scripts with no clicking, so an agent can change the art the way it changes code.

5. 5

   three.js runs the game in the phone's browser. No app store, no install: a link opens it.

Bots play every build on emulated phones and report crashes, lap times and frame rates. Then a person plays it. The bots missed both bugs Jay found when he played Capybara Kart: the steering was reversed and the race position was wrong.
