Show HN: Prompty, build games with GPT (early prototype)
Hey guys, I’ve been playing around with this prototype for a way to build games using GPT.
Some details:
- It’s an absolute hack right now; expect bugs and user unfriendliness. Also UI is not fixed for mobile yet (use desktop).
- It’s top-down, 2d. You view the world from above, and you can move around by clicking and dragging the world.
- It’s using gpt-4-turbo under the hood, and I’m outputting typescript code, which gpt will self-repair when there are type errors.
- Here’s a simple example game: https://prompty-58a21.web.app/dune/play https://prompty-58a21.web.app/dune/play
So far I’ve been quite impressed with what it can do (thanks to GPT of course), but would love to hear what others think!
- wscourge 3y agoIt tells me it did something (added more players), but it has no visual representation of the action. Just a way too long prompt.
- FredrikNoren 3y agoHm yeah I can see your project; it looks like the players were created outside of the map. If you click-drag the map a bit you'll see them in the lower right corner. I'll see if I can give it a better understanding of the size of the map.
- ynlefevre 3y agoCurious - how much does it cost you to host this sort of app(since we are not providing OpenAI keys)? Thanks.
- FredrikNoren 3y agoWell, only a few people have tried it out so around $30 so far (haven't checked exactly how many but less than 30). The prompting is very unoptimized as well, so I'm sure it's possible to get that down.
