Built an Infinite Scrolling Game with Claude: No Score, No End
vinishkapoor · reddit · 2026-08-06
A developer used Claude to build Endless Descent, a web-based game that breaks traditional mechanics by having no score, no enemies, and no game over screen—players simply scroll down forever.
- Gameplay: Starting from 'The Open Sky', players descend through continuously shifting environmental zones, encountering interactive creatures along the way.
- Development: Claude helped the author tackle procedural zone generation, creature spawning logic, and smooth transitions. The trickiest part was achieving a natural infinite scroll without loading hitches or repeating patterns.
The game is free to play, with the author's personal best depth currently at 9,698 meters.
