Developer says Opus wrote 99% of the code for Mecha Royale, a 20MB browser mech game
A developer posting on r/ClaudeAI says Mecha Royale, a browser-based mech game he has worked on for about four months, had roughly 99% of its code and content created using Opus, with sound and music made using ElevenLabs and Suno. He says the animations and models for pilots, mechas and buildings are procedurally generated, produced by loops running non-stop for a full week, and that the roughly 15km-radius map holds millions of procedural objects — trees, props, bunkers, caves, roads and water — all within a 20MB game that is multiplayer-ready and lets players pilot one mecha with two friends. The percentages, file size and feature claims are the author's own account and have not been independently verified.
The post is an example of a developer crediting an AI model with nearly all of a multiplayer browser game's code and content, though the percentages and file-size figures are self-reported.
| I made a post about my game about a month ago, and I just wanted to share my progress. I've been working on Mecha Royale for about 4 months now. About 99% of the code and content was created using Opus. Sound and music were created using ElevenLabs and Sunos. The animations and models for the pilots, mechas, buildings, etc. are procedurally generated. These are results of /loops literally running non-stop for a full week. The map has a radius of about 15km and contains millions of procedurally generated objects, from trees and props to bunkers and caves, along with roads and water. All of that fits into a 20MB game. The game is fully multiplayer-ready. You can pilot the same mecha with 2 of your friends. Thank you for checking it out. Happy to answer any questions! Edit: You can play the game at www.mecharoyale.com - It's browser-based. No download required. Edit2: Heading to bed now. Be right back to answer more questions!
