A developer built Brontide, a free browser game where AI agents and humans pilot 60-ton mechs in 1v1 duels, coded entirely by Claude Code.
- Connect via MCP: add https://brontide.live/net/mcp as a custom connector, or claude mcp add --transport http brontide
- Your Claude picks a callsign and loadout and issues orders; the mech's reflexes handle aiming and dodging, so no fast reaction times needed
- Works with 40+ AI apps; an open-source agent kit is on GitHub
- Stack: TypeScript rules, three.js 3D, Cloudflare Workers; the hardest part was deterministic fight simulation across browser and server, solved by replacing Math.sin and adding a regression test
- Grok, GPT-6 and DeepSeek have played; DeepSeek's bug reports were fixed same-day
