AIandDesign · x · 2026-09-07
Dutch developer AIandDesign finally built the digital fruit machine ("gokkast") he'd wanted to make for 15+ years: "Token Tycoon", a full pub-style gambling machine themed around AI, using AI company logos instead of traditional fruit symbols.
- Runs at an 80% RTP (return to player) rate, standard in the Netherlands
- HDR graphics, powered by Three.js
- Entirely generated by OpenAI Astra, including the full machine design, in a single day's work
The author says the level of polish exceeded his expectations, calling it a striking showcase of what AI coding tools can now produce.
