Can It Code?

Can AI actually recreate a real game?

Every episode, I give leading AI models the same gamedev challenge: rebuild the look, mechanics and feel of iconic games—or survive a multi-round elimination tournament.

Same starting brief, same references, same engine, real playable builds. I test every iteration: controls, physics, combat, level design, performance, bugs and visuals. You see the exact prompts, feedback, failures, final gameplay and real API costs.

Built mostly in Godot, occasionally on the web. No fake trailers or cherry-picked screenshots—the games have to launch, play and survive testing.

New AI gamedev experiment every episode.
