i vibe-coded a web3 game with over 1,000,000 lines of code using claude 4.6 opus in google antigravity. https://x.com/epsteinarena/status/2030710072041451796claude did all of the game design, built the engine from the ground up, modeled all of my characters, wrote over 16,000 voice lines for them, generated them with elevenlabs as audio files, gave me boats, cars, and a helicopter in the game.the financial implications of this are clear. if you're not using AI you're going to be left behind. the means of production are finally at your fingertips. what used to take a team of people months to accomplish can be done with a couple days of thoughtful vibe coding and cursory knowledge of best practices. the future is bright frens.
Did you sell the game?
>>61959680there's an incentive to hold the coin associated with it. signing in with the phantom sdk and holding 125,000 epstein coin gives you some special characters, loadouts, lobbies. the goal of the game was to promote the coin. it's still very much in beta but coming together nicely.
>>61959702So no, AI took your job and provided you with nothing.
>>61959677Except, no one cares about your vibe coded slop. So now what?
I wouldn't play this game. It looks like complete shit. No offense obviously, I'm just giving you my real thoughts. People pay for simple-looking games because they usually have multiplayer and a streamer enjoyed playing it. No one wants this unity asset store lookin pile of shovelware, which looks like Unturned got ran through, when they could just go and play Fortnite or Counter Strike. It's a hard pill to swallow but don't take it too personally. Although if you DO get thoughts about killing yourself then you should just go ahead and listen to them.
>>61959862>vibe coded slopopinion discarded
Too many retards in here who don’t understand the gravity of what ai lets you build now, and how fast it works. Stay poor nerds
let me play this without a phantom wallet anon... it looks good
>>61959677What are the specs needed to run the game? That's below fucking doom tier graphics and i bet it has to run a massive cloud stack.
>>61960577Doom had 1/32 the resolution of that screenshot and ran at 15 fps
>>61959972you're an idiot, buy an ad
>>61960951AI art is art :3
congratulations, after enormous amounts of redundant compute producing horribly unoptimized code, you are now at a level slightly below chinese shovelware producers
>>61961001this post was most likely made by AI
>>61959677This is okay if it's just for you to enjoy, don't expect anyone else to consume it, and with AI that goes for everything. When everyone can easily make their own book, movie, tv show, comic book, video games.... why do they need to consume yours?
>>61961176This is retarded. not everyone is imaginative or even wants to be imaginative or put the effort of going through it. People also like suspense and surprise. People love to see variations of a theme and share stories and read stories about other people just because they are curious. Just because ai can make anything for you, doesn't mean you don't want to see those other ideas. And even if you extrapolate that out to the ai just serving you content that you did even know you wanted because it can predict that, that's what you want, it still at some point had to get the knowledge that humans like said content from somewhere, so in that sense at some point people sharing their works of imagination will never, not be something that some people find both good, or desirable.
>>61960558you can click "play as guest">>61961176because not everyone is going to burn a couple weeks prompting a game engine from scratch and you're also assuming i haven't supplanted my vision into the prompts - and that anyone else would have come up with the same thing. ai is a tool.
>>61959677>the future is bright frensMessage paid for by the 2028 Frens of Wayne Campaign™
>>61961217>>61961226Nobody will need your ideas, or your prompt.An AI creating a masterpiece of a film, game, book etc.. tailored directly for you with a simple verbal request is where this is headed. And good luck trying to find human consensus on "shared stories" when the internet is all bots.
>>61961284people will pay money so that a person in a costume will jump out of a dark corner and shout boo at them while they are in a creepy house. I don't think you really understand what people will do to be surprised.
>>61961284really stupid to equate the thousands of prompts and hundreds of hours put into building this game, along with visual references i designed by hand in photoshop (what, is that cheating, too?) to "a simple verbal request." honestly anon, you're just a luddite and i hope you never shit up my game by actually daring to play it.
>>61961302The future of entertainment will be like the webcomics board on this website, everyone making their own webcomics and trying to get the other people to read theirs but nobody does. And more than likely no one will care since they're all perpetually being entertained.
>>61959677I was expecting rape, at least some level of sex, and you thought a shooter on Epstein island is going to sell?
>>61961321Sorry to break your heart sweaty
>>61961176>>61961284>everyone can just talk to their smartphone and then play the video back for themselves to watch. >so why would anyone watch smartphone videos made by other people?>surely, everyone will just consume their own, self-made smartphone video content. that’s what you sound like kek
>>61961346it's still in beta, anon. there's still time.
>>61961361definitely not the same thing. I have a few friends that have written novels since ChatGPT came around, they all want people do read them, nobody does, nobody will, kek
>>61961370that’s no different than before chatgpt. your mistake is assuming that being entertained and being creative are the same thing for everyone. many people want to turn off their brain and consume.
>>61959816Lol
not bad for a first rough draft, theres a lot of obvious bugs but it has potential. and even if it doesnt go anywhere its not like it took a ton of time and money to make. some people write games for years and they still aren't close to being playable. everyone hating on it is gay and retarded and ignoring the implications of how little effort it takes for someone with no programming knowledge to make something that 5 years ago would take some giga autist years to make on his own
>>61961569ty anon i am going to keep at it until it's reasonably polished, cut a trailer and promote a little and see what happens.
>>61959677Nigga, your shitty game is consuming 10 gb in loading screen. Kys
>>61961810You should learn how to code instead of wasting your time on usless prompting.
>>61960663Nah that's upscaled as fuck...the underlying rez is dogshit. Also Doom was coded in <100k lines of C....not 1,000,000 lines of fucking script kiddie bullshit not including the libraries which are doing A LOT of heavy lifting here I'm sure.If this shit becomes the norm you gotta be long as FUCK hardware. You're gonna need a whole server rack to do your taxes in 5 years the way everything has been enshittified.
>>61959677The person who made this is spiritually dead. They’re like a farm animal. Breathing and functioning but no soul or consciousness. An NPC, if you will. This is the future AI will bring us.
>>61959702>epstein cointhat's not a phrase I ever expected to hear
You can do a lot of things that make negative money. What's your point OP
damn, how much are you paying in credits, i am poorfag who has to wait one week for the quota to reset
I want it to be true so bad, but it just isn't. I tried it, even with claude, it makes slop and I have to spend an equal amount of time fixing the slop as it would have taken to just write the code myself.
>>61962347Not him.I did that, and I am almost certainly a more capable programmer than you.I don't write code anymore. Just specs.Now what?
>>61959677How? I tried to vibe code a basic web app and Claude keeps running out of chat space
>>61963089Subscription
>>61962347implying you would even be able to prompt a complex game like this successfully without knowing the basics of coding, best practices, etc. it's weird how people against ai reduce their arguments against it to the lowest common denominator - or rather, down to their own lack of knowledge. you don't know me.>>61962782you have to understand the foundation anon
>>61961176> I can put two pipes together. Why hire a plumber?!?
>>61963143You admit yourself you have CURSORY knowledge. To present this abomination you "created" in any positive light at all was proof enough. The amount of energy it took to "create", and the amount of energy it takes to run is completely ridiculous. It's like some techno-satan's rube goldberg machine with a dual purpose of disgracing humanity and causing as much global warming as possible for the least amount of useful output. And I'm not even talking about the crypto/epstein aspect of this.A proper ai for coding would be trained with very curated material, and highly skilled architects could use this to replace an entire company of cargo-cult script kiddies. Garbage in garbage out.
>>61959677>the means of production are finally at your fingertips.can you buy a computer today?
I have a i9 14900K, 128GB of RAM, a RTX4090, and a 120fps display and can barely get over 60fps on something that has original playstation levels of graphics complexity
>>61963189>causing as much global warming as possibleopinion discarded>>61963224the playstation could not achieve over 60fps anon. modern game consoles barely put out 60fps. if i packaged this into an application it would immediately perform 10x better, but i like the idea of playing in a browser and 60fps is fine for that purpose. there is also still some server logging going on that slows things down but is needed for beta development.
>>61959677Idiots like you don't understand, I run a games studio we're owned by a larger company who are in turn owned by tencent, our parent company are already using AI to develop games, when the market is filled with AI slop then people like you won't even get a chance to find players, established companies with marketing and connections will completely dominate
The problem is you automated the game design, thats a bit like asking the ai to generate an ai prompt.
>>61963276sounds like your company exists as a strategic financial loss for tencent and should be ashamed of yourself
>>61959677Im a domain expert in my field and i was sick of these bloated expensive tools that barely do what I want. So together with Claude I built my own tool. Currently waiting for my usage to reset in a few days and then it is basically ready to get shipped. Its fucking perfect for what i need and it would have taken my company a year if not more to get a project manager, frontend dev, backend dev, ui designer, …. To build this for me. Probably would have cost 300k if not more to build it to my specs. Claude did it for me in 3 weekends (only worked on it in my spare time) and the price of pro plan. Feature creep has set in and i am a perfectionist so i keep putting off release but its a fun project
>>61959702You are so stupid and old fashioned, just add in-app purchases and online, you dont need to add crypto, it has been dead for two years dude lmao let it go
>>61959677The endpoint of this is going to be everyone generating their perfect game with a few prompts and then playing it by themselves in their 50sqft pod apartment, alone. Sharing it with others will be pointless because they, too, will all be preoccupied with playing the game they vibe coded themselves that perfectly suits their tastes. You're not getting ahead by making shit like this, you're literally stacking up the bricks of your future prison cell one by one thinking you're clever.
>>61963299>Currently waiting for my usage to reset in a few daysi fucking hate this, are you a paying user or just a poorfag freebie?
>>61963343the endpoint is software engineering, games, or anything you currently find interesting today will be replaced by something more addictive, something that can only be made by a team of agents running serious hardware
>>61963258>modern game consoles barely put out 60fpsthis isnt a $500 modern game console, its a workstation. the GPU sells for $2650 on eBay even used, the 128GB DDR5 ECC UDIMMs go for over $4000, it has a server motherboard with a BMC, it can get 90-120fps on max settings in most games. > if i packaged this into an application it would immediately perform 10x betterit wouldn't>but i like the idea of playing in a browser and 60fps is fine for that purposethis is cope> there is also still some server logging going on that slows things down but is needed for beta development.you clearly have never even drawn a single line in C if you think this is in anyway relevant
>>61963377if you don't realize that browsers are severely limited compared to standalone applications then you're just technologically illiterate. stop embarrassing yourself, anon.>you clearly have never even drawn a single line in C if you think this is in anyway relevantyeah because i should just debug the game by combing through tens of thousands of lines of code rather than having the server show me where the bug is ... right ... aren't you supposed to be in school right now?
>>6196335220 euro a month. It took me a while to get the prompting right so i lost a lot of credits but now im in the correct flow im building shit super fast.
>>61963450lmao, so they even throttle the paying users? how many prompts do you get in a day?
>>61963529Its worse than you think, you get throttled per blocks of 5 hours and you have a weekly allowance of 7 days. So you can lock yourself out if you prompt too much within 5 hours. Some models deplete faster than others.Its cucked, but again, I created a working tool at a super fast rate. Thousands of lines of code. They arent spaghetti code shizo ai things either. Sure, my tool isnt complex but it would have taken months to complete if done by people.
>>61963675i am also working on something and its a pain, but claude is definitely worth waiting for a few days, its miles better than that gemini 3.1 they just released
>>61962708>If this shit becomes the norm you gotta be long as FUCK hardware. You're gonna need a whole server rack to do your taxes in 5 years the way everything has been enshittified.This. You’re going to need supercomputers to do basic computing tasks. In many ways we’re already on that path, with “indie games” that look like something on the ps1 but stutter and have performance issues on all but the highest end hardware.
>>61961366You have to hard pivot, man. Go for the City-Building genre. Build a mini-game to poach girls from small-town America or Eastern Europe. Then you get to build your island up and invite your clientele over. And lastly, you need some autotuned dreidel music, not this AI casual slop.>>61963529Of course they would rate limit. They're losing billions subsidizing their users. This is really the fundamental flaw of AI services. No one is willing to pay for its real cost at a profit margin.
>>61963754>City-Building genrelmao>>61963743nothing comes close to claude at the moment
Also,>1,000,000 lines of codeAnon, stop. You ideally want negative lines of code if you want performant and robust software.
>>61963764worth noting that the majority of those lines are builder files that get cached. all of the models, e.g. the buildings, the characters, vehicles - all of those are built in JS, then cached for the client. regarding the rest of it - i think you'd be shocked at how many lines of code are in Unreal, Unity, etc. but i haven't even begun to seriously work on optimization.
>NOOO U CAN'T JUST VIBECODE YOUR OWN VIDEO GAME BECAUSE.... WELL, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T, OK? DON'T EVEN BOTHER MAKING YOUR OWN VIDEO GAME UNLESS YOU HAVE 12 YEARS OF PROGRAMMING EXPERIENCE AND WRITE YOUR OWN C COMPILER, CHUD! IF IT CAN'T RUN ON A TAMAGOTCHI FROM 1997 YOU'RE A HACK!loooool nobody played DOOM because of "le only 100k lines of C!" I'm tired of these faggot nerds that bitch about memory consumption and act like hardware limitations are even a thing anymore. That was an argument for 30 years ago. OP has more trouble marketing his game and getting people to play it consistently rather than worrying how bloated it is. that's easy to fix compared to getting people to play it. thats what you faggot nerds will never understand
Post your gains from selling the game you made or none of this matters.
>>61965459how would i sell it when im only two weeks into beta development retard? are you just flat out denying that ai tools can be used for business? >>61965439yes
>>61965439the point is that this isn't novel in any way, shovelware has existed long before you even knew what an llm was
>two more weeks until ai world pooperpower saarsso sick of hearing this shit. when will the 2 more weeks come? or are we going to be hearing "TWO MORE WEEKS UNTIL AI TAKES OVER" until the end of time?
>>61965855you are presenting a false argument. go work in a tech company in 2025. everyone is using cursor and antigravity. claude is already doing heavy lifting in engineering departments. you wouldn't know that unless you were actually employed at. these companies. everyone doing real work is leveraging ai tools to do their work faster and more efficiently.
>>61965933ok so you see in a few months when you claim that this time for real your ai game will make you a millionaire
>>61965959i never claimed it would... do you have brain damage?
>>61965961why haven't ai games taken over yet?
>>61963787Mildly cool. Just out of curiosity though what’s the JavaScript for? Isn’t that slower or is it for something where it doesn’t matter?
>>61959677KINO
>>61959677>1M loc to make a dogshit game nobody will ever play>and that's a good thing!
>>61965833shovelware still makes money
>>61959677>over 1,000,000 lines of codeand that's the problem with agentswill they "make it work"? Yeswill they get better at making it work? Yeswill they get better at translating your shitty requirements in the form of prompts to "working" code? YesbutI write games, sometimes, for fun. Something like this looks like 10k lines stuff at BEST, especially if you're leveraging some shit like unity. How did it manage to bubble up 2 full orders of magnitude in complexity?Right now, AI is like having a huge team of super junior indian devs that have no fucking idea what they're doing, but they can do it really really fast. They will make it work, absolutely. You know, same as when people used to outsource to bangalore because the devs are so cheap there, same shit. But my issues are not related to how to make it work, I can do that blindfolded, I don't need AI to do the typing for me. My problems are related to how to make it work in such a way that keeps complexity at a minimum. And AI is fucking TERRIBLE at that. It's not just really bad, it's like it doesn't even have a concept of complexity and how to manage that - it just throws shit at the wall until it sticks. While I see a lot of improvements with context window size, and with how well AI understands prompts, I see zero improvement when it comes to how AI manages complexity. It doesn't manage it at all, it's like it doesn't even SEE the issue with the retarded code it spits out, again like a shitty indian junior dev.If they can somehow address the complexity issue, and they can get to a point where AI writes not just "working" code but elegant, streamlined code that makes sense, then we're talking about something else completely. Right now, only junior to mid level devs can make some use of AI - juniors, because they literally cannot make it work without AI; midwits, cause while they can make it work it takes effort from their part, and AI does stuff in seconds that takes them weeks.
>>61959702Looooooooooooooooool kill yourself.
>AI product>absolute faggot loser retard claims it's the future>it churns out a slop derivative of a thing that was itself stale and derivative over a decade ago>doesn't make moneyEvery. Single. Time.
