AI Tools Used
Code: Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5, with Claude Fable 5.1 for brainstorming and concepts) wrote all the game code, playtested it in a real browser through Chrome DevTools MCP, and balanced it with a human-like playtest bot.
Art: Codex (OpenAI image generation, driven from the Codex CLI) and Nano Banana Pro (Google) painted the characters, sprite sheets, props, tiles, key art and cover. Tripo turned concept art into 3D models, which I rigged and posed in Blender as pose guides for the painted frames.
Music: ACE-Step 1.5, running locally in ComfyUI. The guardian themes are remixes of each region's track.
Sound effects: Stable Audio Open 1.0, running locally in ComfyUI. The rest are synthesized with ZzFX (not AI).
Solo project: I directed, designed, picked every asset and playtested; AI did most of the making.

I enjoyed your game. The fights feel good, the upgrades are fun, and the difficulty seemed right to me. Two things I'd change: on a 2K monitor the HUD and hint text are small, so a text scale option would help, and I think the system for empty rooms that give a bonus needs rework, because the payoff doesn't feel as good as the fights
Thanks for the game
Awesome great feedback! I did most of my testing on a 1080 and my phone, totally missed the 2k test even though that's my main monitor haha, good catch! And the yeah the empty rooms or safe rooms definitely need some some love. It was meant to be like a healing/merchant type of stop but with no merchant it's definitely a waste. I'll cook something up thank you!
10/10 one of the best games on the site
I really liked the game’s concept; the music is also done very well. It’s a lot of fun to play. It’s a good game.
Great design. great idea: hp = bullets! :D
Giant king kill me, its 5 stars 100%!
Thank you!!! It is pretty tough game and I might need to tune the difficulty on it but I'll work on it!
Cool, you're the first one I've given all 5 to.
Awesome, thank you!!! It was a lot of work even using 100% ai (which probably made it way harder actually haha). I'll keep improving the game!
