Codex, Cursor, Antigravity and OpenCode got the same game brief and ran side by side. One finished in 26 minutes. One ran out of free usage. One stopped mid-check. One worked alone for almost 8 hours and reported success on a game you can't see. What each agent did, what it said it did, and all five games to play.

Someone in our Game Dev - AI group asked how to build a UI asset pipeline with AI. Here is the full answer: one small game, from the first reference to cut, engine-ready sprites, with every mistake the AI made on the way.
I gave three image models a coin, a crow and a game mock-up, and measured everything. 153 generations later, one rule explains every result - and it changed how I think about making game art with AI.
The day after Unity shipped its official plugin for OpenAI Codex, I gave it a 337-pixel game menu mock and asked for a real main menu. It delivered one that looked finished. Then I made it check the menu against my UI rules, and the menu that looked done turned out not to be.
Before I open Unity or Godot, I build the mechanic in Three.js. It takes an afternoon, runs in a browser, and generates a URL I can text to anyone for real feedback. Here is why this is now my mandatory first step.
I ran a live, unscripted experiment to build a 2D hyper-casual game in one hour using Unity AI Assistant alongside Claude Code. After 60 minutes, I still don't have a good answer to my own question.
Mixpanel's new MCP server collapses the analytics tab-switching workflow. Here's how to connect your live product data directly to Claude Code in under 10 minutes - and why it changes how you build.
I built a full Flappy Bird clone in Godot 4.4 with AI as my sole pair programmer-meta-progression, coin economy, cosmetics shop, and all. Here's exactly what worked, what broke, and why Godot might be the ultimate vibe coding engine.
I'm piecing together a heavily automated, terminal-first AI tech stack to manage a full-scale startup backend - TypeScript, Bun, Go, MongoDB, Telegram bots, and Unity clients. Here's exactly how I do it.
I'm piecing together a completely free, open-source AI tech stack for indie game development. Here's the exact setup I'm currently using, layer by layer.
