High school English teacher builds 20-year dream game with Claude, fears AI backlash

A high school English teacher is using Claude (Fable and Opus) to build a Unity game he has dreamed about for nearly 20 years. He abandoned the project in 2022 because programming felt like an alien language; now, with 50,000 words of hand-typed prompts directing the vision, he acts as director, producer, playtester and occasional 3D artist while Claude handles implementation. He worries the game will be dismissed on principle for using AI, but says it would never exist without the assist, and asks if others feel the same tension.
