Qwen 3.8 Preview is quietly catching Kimi K3 on frontend + game design.And this is just the preview. Full 3.8 is going to be a beast. We tested Qwen 3.8 Preview against Kimi K3 on 3D modeling and animation. Ran both through the same 3 prompts. Both on Max effort. Qwen 3.8 Preview was dramatically faster across the board, 3-4x quicker on every test. Kimi K3 needed 2 hours on the final scene; Qwen wrapped it in 31 minutes. Test 1 (Engine Sim) Qwen 3.8 Preview: 25min Kimi K3: 1hr 30min Test 2 (Voxel Dino Printer) Qwen 3.8 Preview: 8min Kimi K3: 45min Test 3 (Garden Scene) Qwen 3.8 Preview: 31min Kimi K3: 2hrs

Just tested Kimi.ai K3 against GPT-5.6 and Grok 4.5 on the same task: build a Subway Surfers game. Kimi K3 was my favorite. Better UI, smoother gameplay, and the overall experience felt more polished. GPT-5.6 was solid too, while Grok 4.5 fell behind on the UI. The interesting part is that all three needed at least one follow-up prompt. Kimi also took a bit longer to generate, but the extra time paid off. Ran Kimi K3 through Nebius Token Factory. Low inference cost + a really capable open source model is a great combo.

Huge day at the yard for James Tronstein (‘26, CA). 3-for-4 which included 2 HRs, one to dead center and the other to straight away right. Now up to 8 on the year. Has been a consistent Perfect Game Draft riser this spring and is getting hot at the right time. #PGHS Perfect Game Scout

We tested Kimi K3 against Claude Fable 5 on 3D modeling and animation Asked both to recreate the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars in 1) pixel style 2) original style. Both are on Max effort. Kimi K3 took a bit longer than Fable 5 to generate, but came in ~1/3 cheaper on the 1st test, and less than half the cost on the 2nd. Interestingly, Kimi K3 handled the details at the same level as Fable 5 on the original creation, yet it wasn't at Fable's level for the pixel style. Test 1 (Pixel) Kimi K3: 1hr 11min · $14.5 Fable 5: 49min · $21 Test 2 (Original) Kimi K3: 1hr 17min · $19.3 Fable 5: 1hr 5min · $47.2

Tried recreating Fall Guys using the exact same prompt with Claude Opus 5.0 (Claude Code) and Kimi K3 (Kimi CLI). Kimi K3 nailed the gameplay out of the box. Physics, movement, and the overall feel were surprisingly solid Opus 5.0 had a shinier UI, but movement was broken, it kept adding unnecessary visual effects, lagged during gameplay, and spent most of its time reiterating instead of converging Runtime and cost : - Kimi K3: ~9 min, ~$4.4 - Opus 5.0: ~17 min (still iterating), ~$13+ That's roughly 2× the time and 3× the cost, yet Kimi produced the more playable result with the exact same prompt.

Kimi K3 is insane🤯 It built an Animal Crossing-style game, and it generated a fully playable experience with the cozy aesthetic, interactions, and gameplay loop in a single shot. Open-weight models are starting to rival the best closed models for game generation. The pace of progress is getting ridiculous. 🌱🎮

$SITUATION EXPLAINED: Kimi K3 just beat Fable on a major coding benchmark, at a fraction of the price. • Kimi K3 beat Fable on Frontend Code Arena • The gap between Kimi and Fable is bigger than the gap between Fable and Sol • It also smashes Opus outright, while being priced the same as Sonnet, $3/$15 per million tokens • Sonnet 5 High currently sits in 10th place on this leaderboard at that same price point • The generational jump is dramatic: Kimi K2.6 ranked 18th on this benchmark, K3 jumped 17 spots to take the top spot • K3 ranked #1 in 6 of 7 tested domains: brand and marketing, reference-based design, data and analytics, consumer products, simulations, and content creation tools, it placed #2, only in gaming, behind Fable • Full model weights are set to release July 27th Theo Jaffee: "Imagine if Anthropic were a public company today, their stock would be down 20%, maybe more, enterprises are probably not gonna be spending $10 and $50 on Fable when they can instead be spending $3 and $15 on Kimi K3."$

MY FRIEND MADE $1.2M WRITING A 3D GAME WITH ONE PROMPT USING KIMI K3 open world, multiplayer, PVP mode, skins, team play with friends - all from one prompt in one session what used to take a team of 10 developers 6 months - he did alone in 10 minutes players started sharing the game themselves - organic growth with zero ads and zero marketing budget first $1,000 came the same day - a year later the account had $1.2M zero code written by hand, zero team, zero investment - just the right tool and the right prompt Kimi K3 - 2.8 trillion parameters, 1 million token context - exactly what made it possible to build the entire game in one request

timelapse #119 (15 hrs): - been trying out the 4am wake up and 8pm sleep schedule and its pretty good for getting ahead in the day. feels like less pressure is on me - upgraded my cpu and ram to ryzen 9 9950x3d + 96gb ddr5 - speedrunning contract work - planning out the entire software and hardware stack for what a space datacenter might look like and how its manufactured - built an MCP server called "thinkingcap" which ill be pushing out for you all today - getting used to opus 4.5 and gemini 3 pro still, although grok 4.1 has been very helpful to me

timelapse #111 (14.5 hrs): - another amazing morning - didnt have creatine in the morning and def felt it later in the day - no luck getting a public easy to use version of the modal mcp so taking the shortcut (and more modular route) of telling my agent when and how to use it in agents dot md - contract work as per usual - watched 2 john wick movies - solid balance of learning and shipping today - i will ship harder tomorrow no excuses - need to stop coping with the fact i dont understand blackwell tensor cores or cutlass internals fully and just dive straight in and get absolutely messy

Kimi K3 just 3 shotted a whole walkable voxel town with drivable cars — Voxelville, around $3.24 in API usage. The same token cost would be $10.80 with Fable 5 and $6 with GPT 5.6 Sol. Fable 5 built its own Maplewood, GPT 5.6 Sol built Willowwick, but on price/quality Kimi K3 just cooked both of them. The era of free indie game development is closer than you think!

One of the most insane Red Dead Redemption 2 details #3 Most NPCs have a full day and night cycle. If you follow them throughout the day, you can see them wake up, eat, work, take a break from work, talk to other NPCs and go to a bar before going back to their camp/home to sleep.

Anthropic's in trouble, again. The entire Claude experience is now available at 1/6th the price. Kimi now does everything Claude does, powered by K2.6, a 1-trillion-parameter MoE model that activates only 32B parameters per token. It covers all three features Claude has (Chat, Code, and Cowork): 1) Kimi Chat runs in four modes - Instant for fast responses - Thinking for deep reasoning - Agent for multi-step execution - and Agent Swarm for parallel workloads. There's a 262K context window across all of them. 2) Kimi Code is the open-source CLI coding agent with K2.6 as the default backend. K2.6 ranked #1 on OpenRouter's programming leaderboard by weekly usage. 3) Kimi Agent is the Cowork equivalent. It generates: - full websites with database and auth - presentation decks (editable PPTX output) - spreadsheets with formulas and charts - word docs and structured research reports. On top of this, Kimi K2.6 is also trained to decompose tasks into up to 300 parallel sub-agents. This helps it retain coherence even across 4,000+ tool calls in a single run, with sessions sustaining up to 13 hours. On SWE-Bench Pro: - Kimi K2.6 → 58.6 - GPT-5.4 xhigh → 57.7 - Gemini 3.1 Pro → 54.2 - Claude Opus 4.6 → 53.4 Kimi K2.6 model is open weights and self-hostable on 4x H100s in INT4.

CHINESE DEVELOPER BUILT A PLAYABLE GAME ON A RETRO APPLE II SETUP IN 48 HOURS WITH KIMI K2.6 FOR UNDER $200 he opened Kimi, described the game in plain English and asked it to build the full loop: map, movement, enemies, score, UI and deployable code by the second night it wasn’t just a green screen clip. the game had working mechanics, fixed bugs and enough structure to feel like a real prototype the Apple II setup is just the bait. Kimi is the part doing the heavy lifting with 256K context and 300 agents running through the boring dev work a small studio would charge $3,000-8,000 just to get this first version working. he turned it into a weekend build for under $200 most people use AI to write tweets. this developer used it to ship something you can actually play
