This game was developed almost entirely by Claude (Anthropic's AI assistant) using Claude Code. The human contribution was providing creative direction and prompts - the architecture, code, pixel art, music system, game mechanics, and documentation were all generated by Claude.
This project demonstrates the potential of human-AI collaboration in software development. We believe in transparency about AI's role in creation.
