The Challenge

Game development has always had "idea guys." People with incredible concepts, detailed worlds, clever mechanics, but no way to build them. With AI tools, every idea guy can realize his vision.

But the bar for quality has lowered. Even premium, flagship games have become bloated and unmanageable.

Even flagship games have become bloated.

AI can make this worse. Frameworks stacked on frameworks, massive waste. This challenge encourages well-written, optimized code.

Build your entire game with AI, but keep it under 1MB. Great games in small packages.

The Rules

Subject to change
01

AI everything

LLMs write your code. AI generates your art and sound. Hand-written code is actively discouraged.

02

1MB max

Your entire game, code and assets must be under 1MB total.

03

A complete game

We don't want a demo or a proof of concept. This has to be a complete game.
