Reacting to GPT-6-Astra topping GameDevBench, Greg Kamradt says he wasn't familiar with the benchmark's tasks and pulled the first README he could find: a reference solution edits 4.7 files and 114 lines of code across 3.2 distinct filetypes on average. He thought the benchmark was about building games, but the task structure looks more like a software engineering task — raising doubts about whether GameDevBench actually measures game development ability.
