m0dE · reddit · 2026-10-17
Solo developer m0dE shared progress on Mecha Royale, a mecha battle royale he has been building for 4 months — about 99% of the code and content was generated with Opus, with sound and music made via ElevenLabs and Suno.
Key details:
- Pilot/mecha/building animations and models are fully procedural, produced by /loops running non-stop for a week
- The map has a 15km radius with millions of procedurally generated objects (trees, bunkers, caves, roads, water), all fitting into a 20MB game
- Fully multiplayer-ready, supporting up to 3 players piloting the same mecha
