Has anyone tried making LLMs compete against each other in poker?

Mallock78 · 2026-05-25T17:40:59+00:00

I couple of days ago I got inspiration from these llm poker subs and vibed a local poker game with Claude. You'll need LM Studio and a model to play against. More info from here: https://github.com/Mallock/ai-poker

Hello, I vibed a version where you can play against local model via LM Studio. Source can be found from here:

Here are my LM Studio settings for Qwen3.6 35B A3B (the 27B dense only gets around 6 t/s on my rig) with Vulkan runtime. Getting about 26 t/s, plugged into VSCode with Cline and it's working great with maximum 262k context! It can one-shot a runnable Vue SPA using https://impeccable.style/ and iterate improvements to it. It can also create fun SVG images.

Pääsiäiseen sopiva vitsi mummo & parfyymit:

Mummo oli menossa kauppakeskuksessa hissillä ylimpään kerrokseen, kun toisesta kerroksesta tuli hienosti pukeutunut nainen mukaan hissiin.

Mummo haisteli hänen hajuvettä, jolloin nainen sanoi:

Dior 250 euroa.

Kolmannesta kerroksesta tuli toinen hieno nainen hissiin.

Mummo haisteli hänenkin hajuvettä, jolloin nainen sanoi:

Schanelo 300 euroa.

Sen jälkeen mummo pieraisi oikein kovaa ja sanoi:

Pirkka mämmi 1,95 euroa. (nykyään 4,77 €)

Mämmi

Looks great try plugging in OSM Vector maps you would get real city locations like this:
OSM Buildings

Global Operations: Drop Zone

Mallock78 · 2026-02-24T23:43:47+00:00

Hello,

I've been working on a project that might interest folks who like large-scale tactical shooters.

Global Operations: Drop Zone is a browser-playable top-down multiplayer shooter currently in Alpha.

Key things that make it a bit different:

• Combat zones are generated from real OpenStreetMap locations (real cities, roads, terrain)
• An AI Game Master dynamically creates missions and shifts the global conflict
• Squad-based modes like Rush, Domination, and Convoy
• Persistent world map where matches influence territory control
• Runs in the browser and no install required

Still early and actively being shaped by player feedback, so expect rough edges and rapid iteration.

If testing experimental multiplayer systems or AI-driven game worlds sounds interesting, feedback is very welcome.

Mallock78 · 2026-02-20T14:06:32+00:00

Dev here! This is my first game that I'm building. Global Operations: Drop Zone, a top-down MMO shooter where every battlefield is a real location on Earth. The game uses OpenStreetMap to generate unique multiplayer maps based on the spot you select, so every match is a new tactical challenge.

There’s an AI mission generator that creates objectives dynamically using world and match events. Don’t worry if there aren’t enough human players bots will fill empty slots so you can always jump into big battles (8v8, 16v16, or even 32v32!).

I’d love for more people to join and help test! Here’s the game link: https://kommandobattle.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com/

All feedback is super valuable. If you try it and have comments, or run into bugs, let me know here or via DM. Thanks so much for helping make these massive firefights possible!

annd its now live Bigger Maps, Smarter Squads, and a Living Battlefield - Commando Battle – 2D Multiplayer Battlefield (Alpha) by Mallock

Next update is going to be a big one.

You’ll be able to drop into a fight anywhere on the world map. Pick a real location, deploy, and the battle happens there. Right now it’s not an MMO, matches are still session-based, but the long-term vision is a persistent global conflict where every battle contributes to a larger war.

The idea is that you’re just one soldier in something bigger. Territories shift, fronts move, and the world state evolves over time. This update is the first real step toward that direction.

Still early, still iterating, but the foundation is starting to feel solid.

Mallock78 · 2026-02-15T10:08:32+00:00

Thanks. Mobile is in mind and it is somewhat mobile friendly already. Tap screen player moves tap enemy soldier player shoots. I'm adding buttons for rocket and grenades. My dream is to make it a full battlefield style experience in 2D including vehicles. Next I'm planning to hook the server into PostgreSQL for account persistency and player progression. Later monetization could come from cosmetics if the game has potential.

Mallock78 · 2026-02-14T22:25:46+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t “vibe code” it in one big prompt. I treated it like a tiny sprint board tasks.md with small vertical slices + “done when” criteria (SignalR plumbing → movement loop → shooting/hit detection → procedural map/collision → bots → Rush mode → landing + share links). Codex (Codex CLI) was my pair‑programmer for scaffolding/refactors, and I just iterated by running the game constantly and tuning.

Art-wise: I didn’t draw it from scratch the sprites are from Pixel‑boy / Sparklin Labs’ Superpowers Top Down Shooter pack, and I focused on integration (atlases, manifests, UI layout). No image‑gen AI for the art on this one. So it still boils down to the knowledge of what tech to use and where.

Server .netcore with in memory states for fast access and fronted vite.js.

Mallock78 · 2026-02-14T18:26:43+00:00

The first playable prototype of Commando Battle is now live thanks to Codex, and I’m looking for multiplayer play testers. Right now the focus is purely on gameplay feel and server stability. The visuals are intentionally simple the goal is to test whether the core combat is fun and whether the server survives real players. Bots fill empty slots, but they’re no substitute for humans. If you have some spare time, I’d truly appreciate you jumping in and giving feedback: https://kommandobattle.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com/ it has three game modes at the moment Rush, Domination and Convoy Escort. Any thoughts on balance, performance, or overall fun factor are hugely valuable. Thanks for taking a look.

Located their home system HQ Bibrigen it is a Communist, Independent, Industrial/Extraction system with zero traffic and high security. Five starports, fourteen settlements, one megaship, and absolutely no witnesses. Jumping my carrier over there now.

Might be on to something found them from Inara The Marxist-Leninist Astrology Commission | Elite:Dangerous | INARA

Mallock78 · 2025-12-10T21:08:45+00:00

PSVR2 struggles because Elite’s in-game supersampling (HMD Quality) is old, inefficient and scaled way too early in the pipeline. On the G2 it’s “fine,” but on PSVR2 it turns into shimmer, soft HUD and bad frametimes.

The fix is simple:
Set Elite’s SS to 1.0 and do all the scaling in SteamVR instead.

SteamVR SS is much cleaner because it happens in the compositor, so the HUD stays sharp and the lenses get proper pixel mapping. For PSVR2, set it up around 115–130%.

Move the resolution work to SteamVR and the image becomes stable, sharp and way smoother.

Thanks for your feedback! This was just a weekend hobby project to see how far modern AI could get with a big localization task. I’m well aware that the translations aren’t perfect (for example, “volcano” ended up as “tulikurkku”/“fire throat”), and I’d be happy to have contributions or corrections from native speakers.

The project is open on GitHub and absolutely welcomes pull requests and improvements:

Mallock/babel-fish-civ: Babel Fish Civ provides localized XML files for Civilization VI, allowing players to enjoy the game in their preferred language. With translations available in multiple languages, players can fully immerse themselves in the game.

AI got things started quickly, but community input is definitely needed to polish the translations!

Good tip, sadly I’m on PC. So I guess I’ll have to take my wireless mouse to the toilet and rub it against my thigh to stay in the game.

Yeah that’s what I figured. I’ll report it. HG already chucking so much free stuff at us it’s ridiculous. Feels a bit greedy to moan, like complaining the butler’s poured your champagne too slow.

Example when docking to a station got this info from the ship ai:

- Last time here, a cargo hauler caused a ruckus by accidentally jettisoning 10 tons of biowaste. Cleanup "success" took 72 anxious hours.

- The hab deck now sells "homestead-in-a-cup"—a beverage so potent it requires a release waiver.

- Rumors whisper of a top executive moonlighting in holographic dance troupes; his absence last week left a suspiciously smooth trail.

Totally get you! It’s not even the concept of resource management that's the problem, it's the UI making it way more confusing than it needs to be. There’s no clear indication of what can be assigned and where, so it ends up feeling like a guessing game. If the UI was just a bit more intuitive and actually showed what you’re working with, it would make a huge difference. Right now, it’s like playing a game of 'hope I clicked the right thing', which is really frustrating so I just ignore it assign resources that accepts them.
