Describe Your Game

Example prompt: "Create a space shooter with adaptive difficulty, enemy waves that scale based on my performance, and voice commands for special abilities."

Supported AI Platforms

ChatGPT (OpenAI)

GPT-4 and GPT-4o fully support .raku file generation. Use the GPT Store listing for optimized prompts and validation.

Claude (Anthropic)

Claude 3 Opus and Sonnet models generate syntactically correct .raku files. Supports MCP server integration for enhanced tooling.

Gemini (Google)

Gemini Pro and Ultra support .raku schema. Best for iterative game design with multi-turn conversations.

GitHub Copilot

VS Code and Visual Studio extensions provide .raku file completion and validation. Optimized for game mod workflows.
