AI gaming news, launches, and trends from the intersection of AI and games 📡

[Mike Houser @M__Houser]

I spent my last $1400 building my online Permadeath ARPG with AI in a weekend and after one week it has 16.700 players that on average have spent Opus 5.5 on @TesanaAI

Seeing big groups of players taking down bosses and playing the game together is such an amazing feeling to see as a game dev. The game is free to play but players have started purchasing my $1 to unlock the new class Death Metal Bard. So the game is making back some money now.

I built Aestra: The Last Wish, a pixel ARPG with permadeath & online multiplayer, in a weekend for around $100. Posted it on Reddit and 800+ players put in over 5,000h, with some already at 30–50h each.

Seeing people actually jamming got me addicted to improving it. Another 3–4 days and almost $1,400 spent in total, it now has 9 classes, levels 1–100, 3 raids & a floating turtle city full of mystery.

The first set of players gave me so much great feedback, harder end game bosses. Bigger map, once reaching max level they players had thousands of unspent gold just sitting in their bags. So I added a big gold sink from a special vendor in the moving turtle city. There you can buy awesome items for thousands of golds. The most expensive being 10.000 gold.

I will keep updating the game listening to my players.

It's most popular in the United States and Japan, with a big surge of Japanese players coming the last few days.

What are your thoughts on using AI to create games?

Does it matter how a game is made if it’s fun to play, or does the human craft behind it matter just as much?

Interested to hear from both players and developers.

This is absolutely insane. I just built a huge living GTA/Cyberpunk megacity with one prompt on @TesanaAI

In this open world game you solve crimes as a private detective. With flying cars and a massive cyberpunk megacity to explore. You can fly between skyscrapers in first person, switch to third person and take in the scale of the entire metropolis.

Enter and explore the skyscrapers, or head up to your own penthouse overlooking the city.

Built with Opus 5.5 & @threejs on Tesana.

Just watching the all traffic and the city change from daylight to dusk to neon-lit night is crazy.

@RyanSael Is it okay if we share this?

[Mike Houser @M__Houser]

I spent my last $1400 building my Permadeath ARPG with AI in a weekend and it already has over 5000 hours of playtime with over 1100 players made with Opus 5.5 on @TesanaAI

I built the first version of Aestra: The Last Wish in a weekend for around $100. A real-time pixel action RPG with permadeath, 4 classes & online multiplayer.

I then posted it on Reddit and it attracted 800+ players, averaging almost 6h each. Some have already spent 30–50h. Over 5,000h played in total. The feedback has been so good, especially on mobile.

Once real players were actually jamming, I got addicted to improving it. Another 3–4 days later, I’ve spent almost $1,400 expanding it to 9 classes, levels 1–100, 3 extremely tight & fun raids and a floating turtle city full of mystery.

Almost a full week of vibecoding with Claude Opus 5.5 on Tesana. I even can't stop playing it myself.

Pick your class, build your talents, quest, gear up & clear dungeons and raids. Whatever you do, don’t die. Your hero is gone and you start over.

It’s free to play, but I’ve added a $1 Death Metal Bard class to see if it can make back some of its cost.

Let me know how far you get & when you died the first time :)

Someone has made a viral "No Man's Sky" Inspired game with 1 prompt. Getting over 12.000 unique players and 3M+ views.

[AI Game Radar @AIGameRadar]

@Rubzem @TesanaAI Amazing looking project! Can we share this?

[S @Rubzem]

My original "No Man's Sky" game built with 1 prompt went viral: 3M+ views and 12,000+ unique players.

So I kept going and added 1000-player multiplayer + an enormous Ringworld. I'm now on my fourth prompt on @TesanaAI

My original game now has:
→ 1000+ player multiplayer. Explore and fight across the galaxy together
→ Ground wars against giant SANDWORMS and Behemoth walkers. Tie their legs together to bring them down
→ Explore a vast seamless universe with planets, moons, ringworlds and ancient mysteries.
→ Fly straight off a planet into massive space battles with Juggernaut ships and fighter squadrons

You can go from exploring a RingWorld or a planet with other players, to fighting a giant Sandworm, to a ground war, then jump in your ship and fly straight into a galactic armada for a space battle. My vision is closing in on Sky Reach being a complete game to release.

This is so cool but kind of scary. I asked Claude Opus 5.5 to make a game about itself.

It built Deep Interior: five colossal places inside its own mind, drawn entirely in ASCII. Made on @threejs & @TesanaAI

📡 Someone asked Opus 5.5 to one-shot an MMO inspired by League of Legends

[AI Game Radar @AIGameRadar]

@GamefxAI This is amazing, okay we share this?

[Tesana - Make AI games @TesanaAI]

A user went viral, reaching 2.5M views and over 11,000 unique players with his original space exploration game, which he created with just a few prompts using Opus 5.5 & @threejs on our platform.

You can start with an idea, and by the end of the day, you have a hit game in your hands with thousands of players.

📡 Someone just mashed up Minecraft and Pokémon using AI.

Fan crossovers like this used to take a modding team months. Now one creator can build them. Expect a lot more.

[AI Game Radar @AIGameRadar]

@MozeTech Awesome job is it okay if re-we post this?

[Mindblown 🤯 @mindblown_ai]
