๐ Exploring AI in Game Development: A Personal Journey ๐
I embarked on a challenge to create a fun, fast, and playable in-browser game within a week. As a non-traditional game developer, my journey led to an exciting 3D endless spaceship runner, where players dodge UFOs and laser beams. Hereโs what I learned:
- AI Tools at Work: Utilizing Cursor (AI-powered IDE) and ChatGPT, I scripted logic, fixed bugs, and enhanced gameplay.
- Iterative Design: I opened the IDE, described my vision, and refined ideas through playtesting.
- Tuning Challenges: Fine-tuning UFO behaviors was tricky; AI played a crucial role in balancing difficulty.
This week-long experience was a crash course in game development and AI tooling, pushing me to learn more than I had anticipated! ๐ฎโจ
