I've built 4 game prototypes with @grok so far. I've always wanted to make games since young but I suck at coding, until... Grok happened.
I think I need to go lie down for a bit.

- I took Grok 4 for a spin this weekend to build this game prototype. I used SuperGrok Chat to generate the initial game prototype and then brought it over to Cursor to continue coding with Grok 4 MAX. Grok 4 in Cursor is like a no-nonsense agent. Doesn't speak much, but
00:00 - I believe that @grok can be a serious tool to build quality games. I've been pushing the limits of Grok 3 by having it code this retro Doom-inspired Gothic shooter from scratch. It's just been less than 24 hours of work, and I think I got it to a pretty good shape. It was able
00:00 - Vibe coded "Tariff Pong" in a couple of hours. I knew I had to do this when the idea came.
00:00 - This is insane. I've been trying to solve this persistent bug on iOS for a mobile game I'm building with @maxhertan Tried o3 MAX, Claude Opus 4 MAX on Cursor multiple times and it couldn't solve this pesky bug where the audio doesn't resume when the iOS app goes out of focus.
- In the past 1 month, I've made 9 game prototypes with Grok, Cursor and Windsurf. Here's how I usually start my initial prompts:👇
00:00 - Can't stop thinking about the art style @de5imulate created so I tried to create it in @threejs to see if I could achieve a similar look and feel. I think I got pretty close with some careful pixel art billboarding and lighting. But there's some limitations to getting this
00:00 - Working on a chill ocean diving game where you play as a stingray. @grok is my coding partner as always. Tried to nail the look and feel first before adding more gameplay features. Let me know what you think!
00:00 - Replying to @DannyLimansetaI got these amazing character sprites from itchio by SmallScaleInt. The character portrait and some minor elements were made with retrodiffusion. And the map was generated with Midjourney!
- Mini weekend vibe coding game project: Made a 2.5D fighting game for my boys, turns out it it's a little too hard for them.😂 Pretty happy how it turned out though.
00:00 - Another @grok WIP demo of the stingray chill ocean exploration game. Took quite a few tries to get that jump out of the water, still not 100% there yet but pretty happy with the progress so far.
00:00 - Never thought getting featured on the Grok 4 launch would be in the cards for me. Shout out to @veggie_eric for making this happen!
- Grok 3 is amazing. I built this Vampire Survivors-like game with some iterative prompting and ai-generated pixel art by @PixelLabAI Not a single line of code was written by me. kudos to @ebbyamir @chaitualuru and the team at @xai. You guys cooked big time.
