10 Months of AI x Gamedev: SOTA Features Now Ship in 3 Days
banteg · x · 2026-10-22
Developer timsoret shares his biggest gains from 10 months of AI-assisted game development:
- SOTA features now take 3 days from research and design to implementation, optimization, documentation, and production readiness
- Everything benchmarked and documented
- Commit / push / conflict resolution fully automated
- Zero tech debt
He credits a clean, powerful codebase architecture as the key enabler, letting the agent ("Astra") exploit unusual possibilities. Manual work is still massive, but game development has become smoother and more enjoyable than ever.
