Ive seen many youtube videos on people attempting to make games with chatgpt but the results are not the best but it certainly looks fun i guess.

ive been wanting to make a video game for weeks now and i just cant code no matter how hard i try i just cant. also if one chooses to make a game with chatgpt what engine should one go with or thing? Because there is a lot to choose from.

what are your thoughts on this, do you have anything to add?

    If you can’t code, what are you going to do when a ChatGPTgenerated game fails a test?

    Even a simple video game requires hundreds of hours of play testing.

      Depends on how simple you mean. I’ve made countless games that are super simple and took just a couple of hours. I advise that OP makes one of these games and not a “real” game since I honestly don’t think ChatGPT can make a big game without a programmer that knows what they’re doing

        This question had me trying to get ChatGPT to code a simple game.

        My prompt was “Create a Tetris game using Java Swing”. ChatGPT provided code. I copied the code into my IDE and found an entire missing class.

        ChatGPT is basically a natural language search engine. If what it finds is wrong, its code will be wrong.
