Wish list: an AI harness to turn tiny classic games like Paperboy into open worlds
Elijah_Meeks · x · 2026-10-24
Elijah Meeks floats an idea for an AI harness that takes very-small-but-felt-like-big-world games — Paperboy, Quest For Glory, Zaxxon — and lets them keep going: bike to "Paperboy City" or "Paperboy Beach", or explore the original HQ submarine. A fun vision of using AI to expand retro game worlds beyond their original boundaries.
