AI Analysis

●●SolidRabbit HoleBold Bet

The game actually recompiles itself live when the AI changes the code.

Strengths

•Using the game's own AST as the context window is a clever feedback loop.
•Real-time compilation errors displayed in chat creates immediate debugging context.
•The 'Oracle' persona gives the AI a distinct character rather than a generic assistant.

Weaknesses

•The 'Build Hung' error in the screenshot suggests the feedback loop is currently unstable.
•Relies entirely on the LLM's ability to write valid AssemblyScript without hallucinating imports.

Post Description

Sorry for repost, I updated it to have an in-built chat. The game is an assemblyscript git repo. You can edit with your own agent (claude/codex etc) or by hand coding (who does this?). Or the intended way for normies is the inbuilt chat. Enjoy!
