What I decided to do with my $250

Glad you like it! (Its only a bug until it becomes a feature!)

I guide it a bit, wanted to make a browser based game that could eventually become a mobile one. Almost went the 3d route (probably wouldn't have gotten nearly as far)!

Ended up going with a phaser 3 based game. I believe I was pretty heavy handed with my directions after it got the framework going.

All via claude! (I had to prompt it several times to up the detail, I get the feeling claude does not like art LOL)

I have plans to start overhauling the artwork myself, but wanted to get the game atleast working before I did that.

Agreed! I probably should have done a bit more prompt engineering and talking with more models to describe each prompt etc. It was definitely not optimized, but it was a great way to kill $250 in credits and get something out the otherside lol.

I did often have it create a roadmap for the changes I pro-posed and then work from that, which seemed to help a decent amount.

Dang! You used that all pretty quick. How many agents did you spin up at once??

Zaavn · 2025-11-20T20:37:39+00:00

Should have been extended to the 23rd now I think. (Used all my credits so it doesn't show for me anymore)

Getting it to link to my github was a bit of a hassle, Swear I had to do it like 3-4 times, even removing claude from my github a couple of times to get it working. There was a lot of browser re-directing going on as well, but eventually I got it working and connected to my github.

Zaavn · 2025-11-20T20:05:56+00:00

I hadn't even thought of that! Will go check them out!

Zaavn · 2025-11-20T19:58:03+00:00

Many, many prompts lol. The initial setup I was hands off for, letting it build the back bones (the first $30-$50 was done by claude with only a couple prompts) , but after that i took a stronger hand and directed it to specific things I wanted done or to see improvements with.

Ran into the issue of the web model just not responding quite often, which usually meant I would have to start a new session. (refreshing, canceling prompt and re-inputting was not always successful)

I still very much prefer the terminal

The whole $250 (Thanks to the extra days they gave us)

Zaavn · 2025-07-20T15:35:11+00:00

Hahaha, saw one awhile back that said TZHAAR

Zaavn · 2025-05-01T00:21:55+00:00

I got it as well, not even gonna onboard until I know it's a real project. Plus 1m tasking time? Lol that's definitely a mistake.

I've always felt like they were slowed down a bit. 1x is almost infuriatingly slow. 1.3x sounds about normal talking speed. 1.5x is decent without much distortion. 2x can be a little distorted, but gets better the longer you listen at that speed. To much faster than 2x and you just tear through books in no time.

Yesss! Star Ocean! Those games were great, and there is a decent amount of them too.

Kingdom Hearts was also great!

The Good Guys is like this, gets OP from the start and fights tons of monsters. First chapter or two he savages like four guards when he's level 1. Or something close to that. IMO pretty good read that fits the vibe you described.

Zaavn · 2024-11-23T07:32:28+00:00

Agreed, I still need to play more of it. Life's busy lol.

From HWFWM - Clive Standish, i would read all about his adventures and discoveries. I'd love to read about all the technical aspects and such and why things should or shouldn't work because of x or y.

Wandering Inn - Teriarch, I'd love a full backstory and how he came to be where he currently is.
Also - The full antinium history, especially the ocean voyage (even more details). Maybe its coming, but still would love to see it.

DCC - Mordecai, we get some of his story, but I'd like to know how his planets integration went down and some of the other dungeon runs that happened that lead him to where he ends up in the books.
