From Design to Development

AI-Assisted Game Development

Independent Exploration

Challenge
Explore whether AI-assisted development could extend my traditional design skill set into functional game development, despite having no previous programming background.

My Role
Game Design • UI/UX Design • AI-Assisted Development • Prototyping • Testing & Iteration

Design Approach
Used AI as a collaborative development partner to translate game systems into working code, troubleshoot problems, iterate on interactions, and rapidly test design decisions. Rather than treating generated solutions as finished answers, I evaluated, tested, and refined them throughout development.

Outcome
Built a playable Godot prototype while developing a practical AI-assisted workflow for moving from visual and game design into functional interactive experiences.

Original print-and-play game successfully funded on Kickstarter.

Playable prototype developed in Godot using an AI-assisted development workflow.
