Everyone keeps asking me how I generated the sprites, my assets, etc., for Evergrow. Astra made a custom drawing engine, and everything is drawn procedurally in code! I also built a lot of tools to browse and refine all the art in the game!

Seriously impressive. How do you keep the procedural art consistent across the game?

Procedural 🔥 this is the best way to leverage Astra and other models : unique textures, models and animations

Hey Thomas! We had the same idea :) . AI pipelines need tools like that to visualize results. One thing that I’m doing different is that I’m also building a customized animator. This the end game of vibe games ;)

having astra build you tools that you can then continue to use to frame your game is 10000% smarter then having it try to one shot it for ya

Can you change the look of a whole group of assets through shared parameters? That sounds like a useful way to keep the art direction consistent as the game grows.

A few years ago I started working on a game based on my album "krang", with the artist who made the cover-art Anatomic . It was a gothic, brutal, fantastical, baroque, vampire fps using pre-rendered sprites for characters, weapons etc. Instead of pixelated retro sprites, we opted for hi def 1080 sprites. Player uses guns, swords and magical powers to defeat monsters in a gory fashion. It had a book-worth of lore and world building. A nod to hexen, dishonored and bioshock. The game failed to get funding, so we had to shelve the idea. Morgan (an_atomic) designed all the characters and I modelled them in 3D. I also programmed it, made the music and sfx. Solo-dev'ing is brutally difficult, but this was the most fun I've had being creative in my life. The game was called "Bloodthirst". R.I.P

More pre-release GPT Astra outputs for my distinguished audience Both outputs were made in a custom C++20 engine, utilizing a custom Vulkan renderer, without using an off-the-shelf engine or imported assets The Kaiju game has fully simulated crowds with reactive smoke and fire (not static) , and the zombie game can render thousands of zombies on-screen

IMHO, Dear ImGui is easily the most underrated library for in-game UI. I built a custom UI framework on top of it (skinning, animations, layouts, HUD elements, scaling, aligment etc) for my engine. Couldn't be happier with how fast and clean it turned out.

There's something mesmerising about staring at procedurally generated Diablo-style items with affixes and rarities. I had to vibe code a custom art generation tool to make consistent art for this game. It's not perfect but it's getting there.

I came, I saw, I KICKED IT'S ASS! Check out my new oam engine running in my updated Mega Man II port to the Super Nintendo! I've also included a 2nd video of the OG game in action. I'm using Metal Man's stage as a perfect example. I'm also showing the sprite viewer of Mesen, to show there is no OAM rotation every other frame, and I'm also showing my OAM buffer which is 200 bytes in size. I've removed the OAM rotation the game does, and prioritized the health/weapon bars to be drawn first. I am VERY proud of the changes i've made to the OAM engine. 🙂

reKILL is not just the game itself. I also built a set of tools to be able to create the game and iterate faster. And one of the biggest is MapEditor. And it made it possible to design such big map.

Please watch. This is a fully custom wasm + wgpu custom engine I'm having a ton of fun building with Astra. It can create amazing scene, the drawing distance is endless, like the world. Can't wait to have an actual game in it.

Here is a game that looks like it was made with 2D sprites on a tilemap But it’s actually a three.js scene Also, no external assets. It’s all code and a bit of shader magic The player can switch between the pixel view and the 3D scene Made with Opus 5

👀 I used OpenAI's Code Interpreter to make Flappy Bird 🐦in 7 minutes: Code Interpreter/GPT-4 for code generation. Pre-existing or AI-generated assets for graphics. --- Here's how to make the game in only 6 steps: (1): Enter the following prompt: "write p5.js code for Flappy Bird where you control a yellow bird continuously flying between a series of green pipes. The bird flaps every time you left click the mouse. If the bird falls to the ground or hits a pipe, you lose. This game goes on infinitely until you lose and you get points the further you go". (2): Use generative AI or existing game assets and spirits. I searched "flappy bird assets" on Google and used the first link, a GitHub repo with pngs from the original Flappy Bird. (3): Use this prompt to link assets to the code: "Please generate the entire file again based on the fact I'm using a unique background, spirits for the bird, and pipes. Here is the list of assets I'm using: [list of file names]." Code Interpreter should modify the code accordingly to include the list of file names. (4) Make an account OpenProcessing -> create a sketch -> paste in the code generated by Code Interpreter -> upload in-game assets from step (2). (5) (Optional) Ask ChatGPT to make changes to improve the in-game experience e.g., adding a high score, restarting the game when the bird dies, etc. Copy the new code into your OpenProcessing sketch and reload the game. (6) If something doesn't work, ask GPT4 to fix it. Copy and paste the error message and ask it to regenerate the code. --- Bonus Tips: - Iteratively test code. Each time you make a change using Code Interpreter, test the updated code by playing the game so you catch new bugs early. - Learn programming by asking questions: "Act as a senior programmer very good at explaining concepts to a beginner. Tell me how gravity works in this game and how you used code to make this happen."Code Interpreter/GPT4 for code generation. Download Pre-existing assets or generate new images for graphics. Excited to see what you make!

I’ve been using Grok Bot in early access for a little over a week now, and it has been a massive boost to my game dev workflow and my productivity in general. One of the first things I asked it to do was to visit my custom art generation tool webpage and generate art assets to replace all the image placeholders in my game. It looked through my codebase to understand what each asset was, wrote a custom art generation prompt for every single one, generated the images, cropped and cleaned them up into transparent PNGs, and then wired them back into the game. In about 2 hours, it generated 74 (cleaned and cropped) art assets for the cards and integrated all of them into my game. Now, ALL my art assets workflows go through Grok bot. This blew my mind because, before this, I was doing everything manually, one asset at a time. It basically solved my entire art asset workflow and allowed me to put it on autopilot, which is amazing. I’ve also been using Grok Bot for: Playtesting my game: The bot was a little slow initially, so I asked it to build a skill specifically designed to playtest my game, with intimate knowledge of its rules and mechanics. It’s much faster now, though I’m still looking for ways to optimise its speed. Setting up my itchio page for my game: It also automated a workflow that uploads a new build to itch whenever I push one to GitHub. Going to the itch website and uploading builds manually every single time was always a pain. Flowcharts and UX design: I’m a UX designer by day, so I decided to give it a much bigger task. I fed the agent a PRD and asked it to design the UX flows and wireframes. With the help of the Figma MCP, it actually delivered. Auditing all my paid subscriptions: I had it go through my emails and hunt down subscriptions that I might have forgotten about. Unsubscribing me from marketing newsletters: It did this beautifully, though it did miss a few newsletters. What I’ve learned is that it takes time to discover all the possible use cases for Grok bot. I’ve had to reevaluate my day-to-day workflows and figure out which parts I can delegate to it. So far, it has been a huge productivity unlock for me and I am discovering more uses for my Grok bots every other day.
