Transcript

Day 1 of building a Roblox game by only using Claude. I always enjoyed playing SimCity as a kid, so I'll use it as the idea for my game. So to start off, I explained my idea to a new agent and hooked up a Roblox MCP server to make sure Claude could do everything on its own. After a few prompts he created me a map, but it was pretty bad, so I helped out and gave the agent some reference. And voila, after a few fights he finally created a base map with a speed pathway to move around the different plots. Next up, to give more context to my agent, I prompted it to ask me as many questions as it needed to collect data and update my dot-M-D file, so in the future it has more context about my idea. When I was done answering, I used the rest of my tokens for plot claiming mechanics and upgrading the overall look of the plots, so here's the current state of the game. Comment what I should name that game and leave a follow to track my journey. See you tomorrow.
